Longji Rijstterrassen en Minority Village Day Tour

A very well organized private tour: the guide, very prepared, picked us up at the hotel and took us first to Yao Village, where we had dinner, and then to Longi. Breathtaking views, despite the fields were still deep green! Recommended!

Wonderful experience in China, not only for landscapes but for guides and transports. It was very well organized.

We visited a very engaging and fascinating place. Thanks to our guide we had the opportunity to have lunch in a place with traditional home cooking. The organization of all 12 days of tours in greater China was greatly appreciated

We went for a 14 days "classic" China tour, staying in Beijing, Datong, Pingyao, Xi'an, Guilin,Shanghai and Suzhou. The organization was perfect, drivers and guide encountered in each location were kind, helpful and experienced. We had as well the opportunity to taste local foods recommended by the local guide. The experience was great and we enjoyed it so much. I strongly recommend this tour operator. A personal suggestion for the travellers would be to spend more time in Shanghai and less in Suzhou.

It 's a must-see. It 's especially beautiful early September . When rice plantations are turning yellow .

Did this hike from our local hotel and thoroughly enjoyed it. The rice fields are amazing and when you walk through them and start to think about the energy required to maintain them, then you really must appreciate and respect these farmers. The views are just spectacular. We took about 2.5 hrs to complete our walk and it was a real experience.

The place is amazing, but why i must go where is a cableway,120 yuan not included, te see the terrace or step by step 45.minuts up is reeeeally difficolt... the guide cant speak really english, like me aniway, but sheis not really a guide, but she came to sell the ticket cableway and the bamboo cicken, not included 25 yuan(not good) After lunch we go in the teatre for a short spetacle really nice about the women of.long hair. (Not so bad) So you pay only the transport, but its.not so close to guilin and finally you will spend a good dau with them.

I booked this trip in advanced, and during the visit there were other people who paid half we paid. I am not happy with this. I have to mentioned the trip was worthy. So I do recommend it, but I sugggest to book in the destionation, in the hotel or other agents instead. Regards,

It is probably not economic to grow rice this way any longer, but the population has bound itself to continue since no rice growing on terraces no tourists = no income. It is a fantastic view once you have made your way to the viewpoints, but you need good legs. We had expected that our driver would just take us to a high point from where we could enjoy the view, but no. After two hours drive from Guilin he dropped us of at a terminal, from where we continued with busses another hour. From where we were dropped of we had to continue up a combination of a steep paths and more than a 1000 steps to reach the viewpoints. Half way up we stopped for lunch which was rich and had some interesting local specialities like smoked meat and rice prepared in bamboo.

I guess everywhere I go will be tourist infested. I do wish this one could have held on to its authenticity a little more rather than having so many little shopping spots with people trying to sell you their "unique" "handmade" items (which i'm not sure I believe were). But it's also very nice to learn how rice is actually done -- way up here in the mountain. I enjoyed walking all around in the beautiful weather - up and down steps, out to other terraces, through the little enclave in the middle. I enjoyed seeing how very different peoples lives can be. I enjoyed that people still kept their clothing, their methods of doing some things.
