Yulong River, famed as little Li River, is the biggest branch of Li River in Yangshuo county. Apart from the incredible landscape that rivals Li River, Yulong River especially owns a more peaceful and vivid scenery with ancient villages and bridges along with daily life scenes of local people. Our guide & driver will meet you at the Yangshuo/Guilin hotel at 9am & driving to the Yulong river. From Yangshuo hotel, we need 20-30 minutes driving. From Guilin hotel, we need 90 minutes driving.
Yulong Bridge was built in Yongle Period Ming Dynasty. It is a stone bridge with a length of 36 meters, a width of 4.2 meters and a height of 9 meters. Expressing a magnificent feeling, Yulong Bridge is in a simple style but featured minority characters. Yulong Bridge is located in the Yulong River Scenic Area. Without any man-made attractions, this area is the largest natural landscape garden. Yulong River is one of the international natural heritages popular with people from all over the world.
Xianggong Mountain is located on the west bank of Li River between Huangbu Shoal and Nine-Horse Mural Hill. An ascent of the hill is rewarded with a bird's eye view of the Li River winding through countless peaks. A good number of photographers are attracted to Xianggong Mountain by its light and shadow, a sea of clouds, and amazing morning glow at sunrise. One photographer from Guilin has won a bronze medal at the 10th international Photography Exhibition for his photographic works created here.

The displacements to get to the Sky Hole in the mountain Tianmem, before the twelve gigantique rolling stairs include buses that depart super, mega crowded and even I asking twice to wait for the next bus and sit down, the guide responsible for the second day of the tour, ignored the request and made the whole group come in along with many Chinese who super crowded the bus, generating a good stress, totally unnecessary. After all, we are there for fun and not to suffer with our feet being stabbed, elbowed and pushed. It was awful!
Jeff is an experienced guide. He learned us a lot about the environment of Yangshuo. The Bambo rafting could be longer, but the scenic mountain view on the river Li is marvellous.
David was a great tour guide. Had great knowledge and took us to see breathtaking views. Was also very courteous. Definitely recommend!
We had Sundy- best guide ever! So sweet and patient. Explained everything and was super nice. Had the best day, sight seeing was terrific and weather was excellent. Thank you!!
I recently went on a trip that was absolutely fantastic. We had a wonderful time exploring new places and enjoying the local culture. Our guide was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making the experience even more enjoyable. Every moment was filled with excitement and joy, and I can’t wait to go on another adventure like this!
Great experience. Helpful fluent in English and very knowledgeable. Great stuff in short. We also added the silver cave with a minor add to the cost.
The spots were incredible and really beautiful. The driver was friendly and helpful. Just only drawback was the restaurant he selected for lunch it was dirty restaurant and the food was bad. But rather than that I enjoyed this tour and 100% recommended .
Fantastic time with Andy - everything went smoothly, he was a fantastic and fun guide and ensured we had a great time !! Would really recommend
Beautiful excursion lasting the whole day. It also includes a visit to the city of Yangshuo. Our Guide, Peter, was punctual and super professional. You can add activities to the excursion during the visit. It is more expensive than Trips bookable on site, but worth it.
We have booked the trip for 11 am late at night, so less than 12 hours before the start time. Though no one replied to our messages in Viator or WeChat, the driver arrived to our hotel sharply at 11:00 in the morning. Good impressions: car, views, locations we could hardly visit ourselves. The driver was creative enough to find best options in order to avoid queues and prevent long waiting time. Things to improve: the english-speaking guide (as per the tour description) was rather a driver than a guide. We did not learn anything about the place history, hills geo-features, etc. And we felt like all the time we were in a hurry to somewhere. Probably due to the hot weather it was really hard for our guide to stay longer outside But anyway, we were really impressed that they were able to organise the trip on a short notice. We enjoyed the tour and got some nice shots from beautiful locations.
