Cruising Li River on a Bamboo Raft

Recommendation of Cruising the Li River
(Best Time and Routes)

 

Floating on a bamboo raft is an excellent and relaxing way to enjoy the amazing views of the beautiful Guilin Karst Mountains and rivers. You can get a bamboo raft tour from April to November in a year.

Tourists should know the weather forecast before your tour. If a heavy rain or a swelling comes, the bamboo raft tour can not come true. In winter, it is freezing and windy, so floating on a bamboo raft down the Li River is not suggested.

The Li River is so long that the time duration is from half an hour to 5 hours according to your starting point. If you want to enjoy the tranquil nature on the bamboo raft, the Yu Long River (one branch of the Li River) is recommended.

If you want to enjoy the Karst Mountains soaring hundreds of meters up from the river, float on a bamboo raft down the Li River.
