Thank you China travel and guide Lele
Our guide in Guilin is Lele,Lele was the best guide we had on this trip; enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and resourceful. Lele arranged special meals for us with local foods, and brought special fruits in season. We were having great fun with him while riding on a tiny river ferry, eating roast goose and meat-stuffed snails in a local restaurant. Great experiences! more

Suggested Itinerary
Here is a suggested itinerary. We are happy to customize a tour according to your interests.
Welcome to Guilin! No matter whether you're arriving by plane or bullet train, your private guide will be ready to meet you at the arrival hall. A comfortable private car with an experienced driver will be waiting to show you the most beautiful sights of Guilin.
Let's start with the symbol of Guilin, Elephant Trunk Hill. Take signature pictures, listen to the legend of how an elephant turned into a hill there, and find out the secrets hiding in the belly of this "elephant".
After lunch, spend a literally cool afternoon in the Reed Flute Cave. It's a pleasant temperature year-round and fun to see the amazing array of limestone formations highlighted in neon lights.
At the end of the day, your private guide and driver will transfer you to your hotel and assist you with check-in. Enjoy a relaxing evening.
Hotel options:- Lijiang Waterfall Hotel (5-star location and facilities, 4-star service)
- Shangri-La Hotel Guilin (best in Guilin)
Karst hills, graceful bamboo groves, and fishing cormorants - the charming views of the Li River are the essence of Guilin. While most tour groups have a 3-star cruise, we will arrange a 4-star cruise (the highest level, with better facilities and buffet lunch) to ensure you have the best experience of the river's charm.
Arriving at Yangshuo, it's time to explore a hidden gem of the Li River - Xianggong Hill. It is considered to be one of the best places to enjoy a bird's eye view of the Li.
After the tour, sit back and relax, as our private transport returns you to your hotel in Guilin.
We will arrange with your guide to pick you up and see you off based on your schedule.
