What to expect
Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Gulangyu Island, Siming District, Xiamen 361002 China
Your private guide and driver will meet you at Xiamen cruise port at 9am or 1pm and then you will be guided to the ferry terminal where you will start your visit to Gulangyu Island. Xiamen is an island
connected to the mainland by Gaoji Causeway and Xiamen Bridge. Being located on the south eastern coast of China, Xiamen has mild weather all year round, making it an attractive and popular holiday retreat. And because of its large natural harbour, now closed off from the sea by land reclamation, the city became an important trading port since Song Dynasty.
Your first visit today is to the small and picturesque island of Gulangyu just off of the southwest coast of the main island. Access to Gulangyu is by a short ferry ride, and when you reach the island,
you will find that only electric powered vehicles are allowed so it is a peaceful retreat from the noise and fumes of petroleum powered vehicles. You will be able to take a leisurely stroll around
the island and enjoy the natural beauty as well as the colonial European architecture of the churches and other buildings. Because this is a popular holiday spot, there are also many small cafes and boutiques for you to enjoy.
Duration: 3 hours
Stop At: Xiamen Shuzhuang Garden, South of Gulangyu Island, Siming District, Xiamen 361001 China
You will also visit Shuzhuang Garden, originally a private villa built in 1931, that were opened to public since 1955. Take ferry boat back to Xiamen International cruise port.
Duration: 30 minutes
