2 hour drive from Guilin and Colin was a great guide and took us there safely. We then walked the rice terraces for 2 hours on our own. Really scenic and the cultural villages (there is plenty of ethnic minorities in the region) with its little shops, restaurants and friendly people were a highlight of our trip. Definitely come to Longji when you visit Guilin!stephenquattro4
