2 - Día Guilin Aspectos destacados : Terrazas Longji y recorrido en crucero por el río Li

My wife and I and our son (age 12) just spent four days in the Guilin and Yangshuo areas, and our wonderful guide Leo was instrumental in it being such an amazing visit. Leo’s knowledge, kindness, and flexibility went above and beyond anything we expected. During planning, Leo listened to what we wanted to do and made suggestions to help create a manageable itinerary. We packed in a lot though we never felt rushed. In fact, we had plenty of time to explore at our own pace and linger when we found our favorite spots or activities. Leo shared authentic culture away from the crowds and was so pleasant to spend several days with. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him, which is especially helpful when traveling with children.  Longji Rice Terraces and the Longhair show were very interesting and unique. The Li River Cruise was relaxing and the scenery very peaceful. We drifted along on a bamboo raft, zipped through the countryside on a scooter tour, and enjoyed dinner at a restaurant built into a cave. Leo knew the best spot to start the scooter tour so we could explore via a calm and gorgeous path and not on the busy street. Every restaurant and dish recommendation he made was perfect. Leo offered authentic (yes!) and Western (no thank you!) dining options and helped introduce us to so many wonderfully prepared local dishes.  In addition to the usual tourist sights in Guilin, he arranged a private visit to a tea plantation where they cultivate and research different types of tea. Despite having some prior knowledge of Chinese tea culture, we learned a lot including how to pick tea from the plant, how to take those leaves from the field to the cup, and we tasted several varieties and learned more about different cups and filters.     Last but not least, we visited Daxu Ancient Town & Dongli Ancient Village where we had a farm-to-table lunch and made our own fan. If you're heading to this beautiful region, book Leo. He communicated quickly and efficiently, and both before and during our time in Guilin was happy to answer whatever questions we had. He’s a kind and honest individual who clearly enjoys introducing visitors to this beautiful area, and he’ll help ensure you have the trip you’re looking for

Leo, our guide and driver, was super. He not only gave us information about the places we were visiting, he was thoughtful and always brought us fresh fruit on both days of our tour. Anyone looking to book this tour must request for Leo as the guide and driver.

We had a wonderful tour to the Longji Rice Terraces with Leo. The tour was anazing from beginning to the end! Leo was an exzellent guide, thank you for everything!

My brother and I had a great time on this tour. We took so many photos. Leo, our driver, was friendly, kind, knowledgeable, and a great driver. He arrived early both days. Carried umbrellas for us in case it rained. The Dragonback Rice Terraces was my favorite part of the 2 days. I would recommend this tour for all travelers.

My husband and I just finished a two-day private tour in Guilin, and it was incredible! The travel agency made everything seamless, and the pick-up service was excellent. The driver arrived on time each morning, spoke English, and was super friendly. On the first day, we visited the Longji Rice Terraces. Our guide, Eric, was amazing! He shared fascinating insights into China’s ethnic minority culture, explaining the history of the terraces and the traditions of local groups. His knowledge and passion made the experience unforgettable. The second day’s Li River cruise was breathtaking. Eric even showed us a Chinese Banknotes with the same scenery—such a cool detail! The landscapes matched the murals I’ve seen in U.S. Chinese restaurants, and seeing them in person was a dream come true. Thanks to Guilin Private Tours for their excellent service, and especially to Eric for making our trip so enriching. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Guilin!

Lee has been a good guide and very safe driver to Longji. Gave us a lot background information about the area and people living overhere.

Liao was an excellent and caring guide. Moreover he was a good driver with perfect English skills. He showed us the Guilin area (Longji rice terraces, tea factory and Li River cruise). We can recommend him by 100%.

Liao met me at the train station as per his text message on time. I had two days in Guilin and Liao prepared an excellent itinerary for me to make the most of my time. A few key points about Liao and his team: -always on time - highly organized - speaks great English - highly knowledgeable of the local area and traffic - fantastic recommendations for local restaurants - fully capable of thinking on his feet to come up with options when plans change at the last minute - a very humble and honest person - takes huge pride in his work I will always remember my visit to Guilin and Liao as my tour guide. Definitely booking my next longer trip to Guilin with Liao.

Jade Leo, very recommend private tour guide in Guilin, we are visit Guilin-Yangshou on Dec 24 until Dec 31, 2023, all services from Leo very good.

It was a rainy couple of days, but was still an amazing experience. The views are like nothing else on Earth. Our guide, Leo, was simply amazing and took great care of us.
