Andy was awesome!! He picked us up at 9am at our hotel and the adventure began. He is very articulate and knowledgeable on all the sights we went to. He was super fun to spend the day with and was easily the best part of our vacation.

The itinerary is long, but it's an unforgettable day that will doubtless be a highlight of your time in China.This was a very good overview of Guilin and the region. We saw a lot in a day and it was not strenuous. The nature was amazing. Our favorite part was the boat tour on Li River. The nature was georgeous.

Andy was our guide and he was excellent at his job! He was friendly and fun as well as knowledgeable about Guilin and all of China. He allowed us to spend some time shopping and doing things freely which we loved, but we also still had time to do everything listed! He knew short cuts and hidden parking spots so getting to and from everything during a crazy-busy holiday in China still seemed easy! We would definitely book another tour with Andy!I was only in Guilin with my two friends for two full days and we wanted to make the most of our time there so I booked us onto this trip which ended up being the highlight of our whole China visit.

I was only in Guilin with my two friends for two full days and we wanted to make the most of our time there so I booked us onto this trip which ended up being the highlight of our whole China visit. Andy was our guide and was genuine, friendly, and excitable. He is what made this tour so wonderful. He took candid photos of us and little things like that that really made it a special day. (1) Reed Flute Cave - Andy picked us up sharp from our hotel and we headed to the cave. Especially seeing as we are geologists, the cave was a treat! It was really big and there were lots of stalagmite and stalactite formations to ooh and aah at. Unfortunately, the cave tour was only given in Mandarin but Andy walked us round on our own and translated some of the facts to English. (2) Xianggong Hill - Next, we went to the viewpoint on one of the many karst mountainsides. On the way, Andy stopped a couple of times for us to get out and take photographs of the landscape which was great. For me, Xianggong Hill was the standout part of the trip as the view was incredible. When we went, it was very humid which made the walk up a little difficult but you should be okay if you're moderately fit. (3) Xingping - You then drive a little way down to get a ferry over to Xingping village to have lunch. There were lots of wee gift shops there if you wanted to buy souvenirs. (4) Bamboo boat - The boat trip down the Li River was pleasant, although lasted quite a while so by the end we were nodding off a bit! The boats hold 4 people and we were only 3 so were given the option to either wait for someone else to go with us or pay for the extra seat which we chose to do and Andy came. (5) Yangshuo - Andy then drove us to Yangshuo where we wandered round on our own for half an hour and then met him for the Night Show. At the start of the day, Andy let us decide which tickets we wanted to buy, the price of which differed depending on your seat. We chose the second cheapest tickets which were about 360 RMB so not cheap. The show was enjoyable, with it taking place on the Li River with the mountains as the backdrop so you can imagine the atmosphere was incredible. Again, the singing was all in Mandarin so just be aware that you'll have to interpret some of the storyline! We ended up getting dropped off around half 10/11pm so we were tired but managed to fit so much into the day so it was very satisfying. Andy offered to take us on the rice terraces tour the next day which we ended up doing because we enjoyed his company so much! Things we didn't know beforehand: There were some extra payments not listed e.g., Andy's entrance to the cave, we had to pay a small amount to each go to Xingping and back on the ferry - these maybe came to an extra 300 RMB by the end of the day. We didn't end up having dinner because we didn't know when we'd have time. The only opportunity to buy something for dinner is in Yangshuo before the show, unless you've brought your own. We weren't sure if we would be able to pay using Alipay with a foreign bank account linked. In the end we were able to pay Andy which was really good but I would still take cash in case. Also having cash for street vendors is a good shout as most of the time that's all they use and you'll want to stay hydrated.The guide was really nice and the whole trip was great! He picked me up at my hotel before 9am and drove be back to my hotel at 10pm, so that was a long day! The landscapes were fabulous and I recommend every minute of it :)
