Yulong Bridge is located in the Yulong River Scenic Area. Without any man-made attractions, this area is the largest natural landscape garden. Yulong River is one of the international natural heritages popular with people from all over the world.

Xianggong Mountain is located on the west bank of Li River between Huangbu Shoal and Nine-Horse Mural Hill. An ascent of the hill is rewarded with a bird's eye view of the Li River winding through countless peaks.

We spent 2 fantastic days with Andy. Before getting to China, we thought this private tour was expensive, however, after seeing the distance we travelled and the amount of amazing sites we visited it was well worth the money. Andy was very accommodating, entertaining and well organised. He had all our tickets pre-booked which meant we never had to queue for any of the sites. Day One: - Elephant Hill - Long hair village - Longji Rice terraces We spent the full day with Andy, started around 8.30AM and didn't get back until after 6PM. Andy gave us tonnes of information about each of the sites. He also gave us time to explore on our own which was nice. We explored Elephant Hill and Andy brought us around the Long Hair Village. The rice terraces were a long drive away, however, well worth the drive! Andy brought us on a long hike along the terraces, spectacular views with great conversation throughout the hike! We tried some wild strawberries, learned about the different types of Bamboo, history of the rice terraces and we took great photos! We stopped off in a local restaurant for lunch and tried Bamboo Rice as well as some local pork dish - amazing and tasty! Andy gave us time to walk back along the trails ourselves and met us at the bottom of the terraces once we were done. When we were dropped back at our Hotel, Andy gave us some tips on where to visit that evening in Guilin. Day Two: Yangshuo Xianggong Hill Yulong river area Moon hill Li-River cruise from Xingpiing with a bamboo raft Liusanjie light show We met Andy early on day 2 and once again, a very successful day! First on the list was Yangshuo Xianggong Hill . This was a long drive from Guilin and over 400 steps to reach the top, however, once there you have the most beautiful view of the river and mountains. There was no one else at the peak during the same time which meant we were able to get some great photos! We then drove to the Yulong River area and walked along the river bank. This area was really idilic and the views were great from the bottom of the mountains. We stopped off in a local village for lunch and had some pork noodle soup! This gave us plenty of energy to enjoy the rest of the tour. We visited Moon Hill. We were happy Andy only took us here for a photo visit as it was quite busy and we were happy enough just taking a photo and moving on. After this we went to enjoy the Li-River boat cruise. The views of the mountains were magical. The boat journey lasted about 1 hour and it was a memorable experience. Andy dropped us to our hotel in Yangshuo and we had time to checkin and explore Yangshuo before meeting him again that night to go to the Light Show. Andy had pre-booked tickets for us and the seats were perfect. The show itself was really great and the natural background of the mountains made it really special. Be sure to bring some mosquito spray!! Andy had a great sense of humour and we laughed a lot during our two days together! We would definitely recommend Andy to anyone wishing to visit these great places. He is very reliable and really ensures you have a great time. Thank you Mr. Lee for showing us these amazing places! P.s. If you find the gold let us know ;)!!Magic for the off roads location. Imagine full nights without a sound... the little montains offer a stronger isolation feeling... except for the tour operators favorite spots. Food is excellent with a farming all around.

Magic for the off roads location. Imagine full nights without a sound... the little montains offer a stronger isolation feeling... except for the tour operators favorite spots. Food is excellent with a farming all around. And ***** for the Tea Cosy Hotel all together for his ancient chinese style covering very comfortable facilities. Staff make you at home at the first step in. Food is at the top for foreign and asian hungry people. Lotus garden keeping the back of the hotel away from sound and smell pollution...Estuvimos con Andy la semana pasada, fue un tour magnifico, Andy es una guia muy buena y atenta.

Andy and David (we set up two one-day tours) were both fantastic guides. They speak English very well and are awesome, fun people. They are safe and conscientious drivers and knew all the cool spots to go around the area. Andy was able to tailor our trip to what we were looking for and work within our budget. We had such a blast and would definitely call Andy again for any local tours!Andy our guide speaks good English and Chinese and is very patient. Quite important is he drives carefully over the long distances which we need to travel. The bamboo raft was nice amidst the cool weather now and the climb up to Xianggong mountain was well worth for the fantastic views
