Amazing Tour!
We had a lovely experience! Our tour guide was prompt and an excellent conversationalist. We got to pick our own tea followed by a tasting and beautiful hike to the top of Xianggong Hill. Our guide even recommended a great local spot for noodles after. Definitely recommend!

Still Drinking this tea 8 months later
David (?) was an excellent guide this past summer. We were two guys late 20’s travelling through Yangshou and this was exactly the tour I was hoping for — we were able to get tea, learn a bit about how it is harvested, harvest our own, and even shown how to roll it out and bake it. Surprisingly, it was just us two on the tour.
I would say it wasn’t a complete class on tea, but i’m not sure there is such a thing for english speakers. As someone who loves tea and wanted to learn more, this was a great experience.
In addition, David took us to many scenic spots in the area and I was able to take some of the best pictures of the landscape of the entire trip. We talked with david about american movies and life and all around great day.

Great guide and experience
My guide, Anna, made this entire experience unforgettable. From the moment the day began, she was warm, personable, and easy to connect with. She shared insights about the history, culture, and traditions of the Xiong Gang Mountain area in a way that felt natural and engaging—not scripted.
The logistics were handled perfectly. Everything—from transportation to timing at each stop—was smooth and stress-free, allowing us to simply enjoy the scenery and immerse ourselves in the tea plantation experience. Anna made sure we were comfortable throughout the journey and happily answered every question we had.
If you’re considering a visit to Xiong Gang Mountain or the nearby tea plantations, I highly recommend booking with Anna. She made our trip incredibly meaningful, seamless, and genuinely enjoyable

Wonderful experience in Yangshuo
I went to Xianggong Hill and the tea plantation in the morning. The guide, David, waited to pick me up from the hotel even though there was an error on my side and was very helpful and nice. He provided lots of useful information about the places we visited. We stopped for pictures and to take a closer look to different things that caught my attention along the way. David was a very good company and made my day beautiful. At the tea plantation we picked up our own tea and tasted a variety of teas. This was such a pleasant experience!

Highly Interesting Tour to Tea Plantation and Xianggong Hill - Hands On Experience!
We enjoyed the half-day tour to the Tea Plantation & Xianggong Hill in Yangshuo County very much. Our guide Daniel took us on a scenic drive in the hills and shared his deep knowledge about the area, tea and various other topics. We learned and saw a lot and had a great hands on experience at the tea plantation making our own green tea from scratch. Daniel is an amazing photographer, so besides our own tea we also have some fun pictures as memories to take home. We can all highly recommend him! Thank you Daniel :)

Fantastic service!
Daniel arranged a bespoke tour to visit Xianggong mountain and then the tea plantation. We were a small group of Scottish people and New Zealanders. He arranged everything and had a comfortable, air conditioned vehicle to take us around. The views from the mountain are absolutely stunning. The visit to the tea plantation was brilliant! Daniel has really good English and had a friendly approach. Thanks for a great day!
Operator response
Hello! Chris O, it's nice to meet you all in Yangshuo! It is my honor to serve you, the largest tea plantation and stunning Xianggong Hill is one of our local tour packages. We would like to share our Tea culture by leading foreign friends to pick, make and taste tea in the tea plantation, so that foreign friends could have a deeper understanding of Chinese traditional Tea culture. Xianggong Mountain is the best place for photography discovered by the local photography association, and it's the most beautiful place in Yangshuo. When foreign friends come to Yangshuo, we really want to share the REAL beauty of Yangshuo with you.

Biking and Moon Hill climbing
Anna took very good care of me. She was caring, respectful and fun. We had a wonderful time biking along the Yulong River and seeing the sights. She was an outstanding guide and I would recommend her as a guide. She spoke very good English. We had a great day together.

Yangshuo cycling + moon hill climbing + caving
Great experience from the first moment to the last. Tour guide Daniel and Anna assisted in picking up and dropping off and was punctual throughout. Cycling through the scenic town and country side of Yangshuo was breathe taking. Moon hill hike was worth the climb with stunning views at the top and Gold caves were majestic. Overall a fantastic experience that I would recommend to everyone.
