Tour Overview

Guilin is a prefecture-level city in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. It is a world-famous tourist city, one of China’s first national historical and cultural cities, and an excellent tourist city in China. Its landscapes are world-famous and have enjoyed the reputation of ā€œGuilin’s landscape is the best in the worldā€Ā for thousands of years. Situated in Guilin, the Li RiverĀ is famous for its amazingly spectacular and unique Karst formations.

Brimmed with crystal-clear waters winding through lush green hills, the 160-kilometer-long Li River is a must-see highlight on any Guilin tour. The 83-kilometer stretch from Guilin to YangshuoĀ shows some of the most picturesque scenery in China and is the centerpiece of a Li River Cruise tour, offering travelers an unforgettable Guilin tour to Yangshuo by Li River Cruise experience. This journey perfectly combines natural beauty, rich culture, and serene river landscapes, making it an essential part of any visit to the region.

Travel destinations: Guilin, Yangshuo
Suitable for: Nature Explorers, Senior Travelers
Tour type: Private

Highlights of this tour:

• Spend about 4 hours cruising down the Li River, surrounded by towering karst mountains, tranquil farming villages, and landscapes so famous they are printed on China’s 20 RMB banknote.

• A light lunchĀ will be served on board as you continue to see the beautiful scenery slipping by. A languid meal in your laps fused with the slow pace of the boatĀ makes the entire trip a truly relaxing experience for the body and mind.

• Explore West Street in Yangshuo, a lively town with more than 1,400 years of history. Walk through its bustling lanes filled with traditional shops, try local snacks, and experience the blend of old culture and modern charm.

Meet your guide at your hotel lobby (centrally located) around 8:00 am and start your adventure. It is about the cruise on the beautiful Li River and the old Yangshuo West Street. It’s an enjoyable journey for both your eyes and soul. When the river flows through Guilin city, it not only cuts out the ordered and special riverway but also forms the skin texture of this city, which endows Guilin with its unique characteristic: soft, clean, bright, and active.

You’ll board a 3-star cruise ship. The cruise lasts about 4 hours to Yangshuo, and a light lunch will be provided on the boat (you can also bring your own snacks if you like). During the journey, you will catch the picturesque scenery of this land – the green karst hills, quiet villages, the landscape on the 20 RMB note…
