Guilin is a world famous city with numerous limestone hills and caves. According to geologists, Guilin was originally on the ocean floor about 300 million years ago. About 200 million years ago, a lot of limestone deposits were located on the bed of the ocean. Due to the movement of the earth’s crust, the seabed rose and became dry land. With the erosion caused by rainwater and underground water, all the limestone hills, caves and rivers were formed as the karst formation during this period of time in Guilin. When visiting Guilin, the numerous fantastic caves are a great highlight that one should not miss. Among all the caves, the best ones to visit are the Reed Flute Cave, Crown Cave.

Inclusions: The private car., The private tour guide., Air-conditioned vehicle

Exclusions: Reed Flute Cave: 90RMB per person, Food and drinks, Crown cave: 60RMB per person and Sightseeing Rail Car:60RMB per person-Round way

We had very nice days with Andy. We had a big delay due to thunderstorm in Shanghai. Andy was very spontaneous and changed our plans so we could still enjoy and see everything what was important for us. He knows a lot of nice places and routes without too many people. He suggested us nice and friendly hotels. He knows al lot about this region and Chinese history but he isn’t talking frequently. What we really enjoyed :) We can really recommend doing this tour with him!

Dear Jade, Thank you very much for an amazing tour. Out three days with you traveling Guilin and Yangshou were magical. With great care, always right on time, you took us and accompanied us to all the places we asked to see and arranged for us to have wonderful experiences; always adding that bit of knowledge, information, and local experience we were thriving for. Throughout the days (and evenings), with sunrise climbing to Xianggong Mountain, and a driver that picked us and drop us at the airport, you were ALWAYS there. And I know we weren't easy; a couple with two girls, the little one being only three years old. However, you were so patient and we really appreciate it and would like to recommend everyone coming to Guilin to book your guiding services. It will make all the difference for everyone.

The classic shot of Li River is the one called "fishing lights on the Li River", together with sunrise or sunset. In the past, local fishermen paddled their bamboo raft and went fishing on the Li River as night falls. A magical scene appears when the river is dotted with fishing lights. It's a scene that shows an intimate relationship between human and nature.  Highlights: 1. Enjoy the Sunset of the 20RMB note area. 2.  take the photos with fishermen on bamboo rafts or even with the fishing birds. Note: If you want to book this tour ONE day before, you'd better check with us if has a Fisherman available or not, due to sometimes the fishing man is fully booked, thank you.

Inclusions: The Private car & private guide, Round-trip private transfer, The charge of the Fisherman, Air-conditioned vehicle

If you are planning a trip to Guilin + surroundings, Andy is your Guy. I know Andy since 2015 and booked all my four trips to Guilin through him. This included trips where I only needed assistance to book the Li River Cruise and an airport transport but also fully customized private luxury tours with my family. Andy (or members of his team) were always on time, always friendly and helpful, always driving safely and always interested to make the most out of your trip. Professional, trustworthy, perfect English and always a great experience.
