Tour privato di 4 giorni a Guilin e Yangshuo

Your professional English-speaking guide and private driver will wait for you at Guilin Liangjiang International Airport with a personalized name sign after your flight lands. They will assist with luggage collection and escort you to a comfortable, air-conditioned private vehicle for the 40-minute transfer to your 4-star downtown Guilin hotel. Upon arrival, your guide will help with smooth check-in procedures. The rest of the day is fully flexible for you to rest and recover from your flight. You may take a leisurely walk along the nearby Li River promenade, explore the historic East and West Alleys at your own pace, or try authentic Guilin rice noodles at a local eatery. No scheduled meals or activities are arranged on this day to accommodate different arrival times; your guide will be happy to provide dining recommendations upon request.

After breakfast at your hotel, depart for Gudong Waterfall Scenic Area at 08:30, a 1.5-hour drive from downtown Guilin. As the only climbable multi-tier waterfall in China, Gudong Waterfall is nestled in lush subtropical virgin forest. You will be provided with safety helmets and anti-slip shoe covers to climb up the cascading rock faces alongside the flowing water, for an immersive nature adventure. Follow your guide along forest trails past ancient maple groves and crystal streams, learning about local ecology and folk tales along the way. Enjoy a farm-to-table lunch with fresh local specialties at a countryside restaurant near the scenic area at 12:30. In the afternoon, transfer 40 minutes to Guihai Qinglan, a serene scenic area featuring karst peaks, mirror-like lakes and vast grasslands. You will savor a premium afternoon tea set including local osmanthus pastries, seasonal fresh fruit and specialty tea while enjoying panoramic mountain views. Return to your Guilin hotel around 17:30.

Pick up from your hotel lobby at 08:00 and transfer 1 hour to Mopanshan Wharf to board your 4-star luxury Li River cruise. The 4-hour cruise sails along the 83-kilometer golden waterway of the Li River, widely regarded as the essence of Guilin's karst landscape. You will glide past iconic landmarks including Yellow Cloth Shoal (the scenery featured on China's 20 RMB banknote), Nine Horse Mural Hill, Xingping Ancient Town and traditional riverside villages. A buffet lunch with both Chinese and Western dishes is included on board, and you can enjoy unobstructed views from the open-air observation deck. Upon arrival at Yangshuo at 13:30, your private guide will meet you at the dock and transfer you 30 minutes to Silver Cave, one of China's most spectacular karst caves. Explore the 1.5-hour guided route through dazzling stalactites, stalagmites and underground lakes illuminated by atmospheric lighting, famous for its "Three Wonders and Three Treasures" rock formations. Transfer back to your Guilin hotel around 16:30.

After hotel breakfast, depart for Yangshuo at 08:00 for the 1.5-hour scenic drive to Yulong River. You will experience a tranquil 1.5-hour double-person bamboo raft drift along the river, a peaceful tributary of the Li River known as "Little Li River". A local boatman will pole the raft manually, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the idyllic scenery of emerald water, rolling karst peaks, ancient stone bridges and countryside farmland. After the rafting, enjoy a classic Yangshuo lunch featuring famous beer fish and snail stuffed pork at a local family restaurant at 12:00. Drive back to Guilin at 14:00 and visit Elephant Trunk Hill, the iconic city landmark named for its striking resemblance to an elephant sipping water from the Li River.
