Itinerary

Day 1: Hello, Guilin
Upon your arrival in Guilin, the most scenic city in China, your personal guide will meet you and escort you to your hotel. The rest of the day is yours to relax or step into this city for a little adventure on your own.

Day 2: Guilin - Longsheng - Guilin
Today's excursion will bring you to Longsheng, about 2.5 hours to Guilin by drive. After that, hike about 40 minutes to Ping'an Village, a Zhuang minority village with fantastic terraces and unique ethnic flavor. You can do some moderate hiking in the village and try some local food there. After the tour, drive back downtown for a restful night.

Day 3: Guilin - Yangshuo
A relaxing cruise on the Li River from Guilin to Yangshuo usually feasts your eyes on the otherworldly karsts landscapes composed of verdant pinnacles and crystal-clear waters. Along the river are some rural villages, swaying bamboo groves, scattering grasslands, and paddies. On the water, you may also encounter some tourist bamboo rafts and swimming ducks.
After disembarking the boat in Yangshuo, you will walk through the busy West Street, get to your hotel for a short break, and then follow your guide to enjoy the idyllic countryside along the Yulong River either by bicycle or walk.

Optional: If you'd like more activities in the late evening, we'd highly recommend the night show of Impression Sanjie Liu.

Day 4: Yangshuo - Guilin, Goodbye
Return to Guilin after breakfast, and then have a visit to Reed Flute Cave - a typical representative of Karsts topography decorated by colorful lights. Stop at a nearby pearl store before heading to the airport for your departure flight. Hope you travel with Odynovo again!
