Itinerary
- 1The "fishing lights on the Li River" is part of the traditional lifestyle of a local Lijiang fisherman. Very early in the morning, the fishing man uses only a paddle, bamboo leaf, lantern, and his cormorant bird to catch fish. He doesn’t need hooks, or bait — just a mutual trust with the cormorant. Our tour of Li-River sunrise photos or misty-morning photos around the Li River. You’ll be taken to the dock in Xingping. Enjoy the beautiful, peaceful river, as you take a ferry to sunrise spots nearby, for some fantastic photos of the sunrise. This stretch is one of the most spectacular on the river, incorporating the 20-yuan banknote view. Itinerary: 3:30--5:00: Pick up at hotel lobby and drive to the Li-River. 5:00--6:30: Enjoy the Li-River sunrise with the fisherman. 7:00-8:00: Back to Guilin or Yangshuo hotel.

- mxavd300 contributionsGreat experience.Very nice experience. The guide showed us the best place for photos, explained a lot. It was a very positive atmosphere all the time.Written August 8, 2024
- Mie M0 contributionsJust do it! Definitely worth it.This as such an amazing experience, and the scenery was beautiful. We took off from some fields at the country side and flew approximately 30 km over the fields and landed again. The team was very professional, so we felt like we were in good hands. Afterwards we also had a good conversation with the pilot, who had almost 20 years of experience. Even though you see mostly the same landscape during the trip, it is still very much worth it. The view is just completely unique. I don't think I can ever forget the beauty, and how it is 100 times more incredible than my pictures.Written July 6, 2024
- Mie M0 contributionsGreat and fun trip!We had such a great trip, where we saw people working in the beautiful rice terraces and hiked to Zhuang. It was a fun walk and a wonderful scenery. We also learned a bit about how the minority lives. After the hike, our guide took us to long hair village, and I was surprised of how interesting it was to see and discuss the traditions of the long hair women. During the trip we asked our guide for a good place to buy tea, so after the trip he took us to an amazing tea farm. It was also a really good experience. We had such a great day full of good memories.Written July 6, 2024

- 448lindseyw0 contributionsGuilin with AndyAndy was a fantastic guide! His English is superb and he is fun and easy to be around. We went to places we never would have known to find otherwise - and they were incredible. We also had a couple of instances of group members leaving items behind and both times Andy went to coordinate and get the items back. We enjoyed our time with Andy and wouldn't hesitate to book another tour with him in the future.Written May 16, 2024
- Shouvik920 contributions1 day trip to Yangshuo, Li River & Reed Flute CaveThankyou so much Andy! Thankyou for being the best guide ever. I would like to give a slightly different review than what others here have given for him. Ofcourse he's a wonderful person, a funny guy finding humour in everything, a wonderful private guide to help you know what you need & also goes out of the way to let you know what you would like. But apart from that, he's very accommodating. I was running short of RMB cash & made an unusual request (usually which is not possible) to take some part of payment in RMB & some part in USD since I didn't want to take back any RMB with me. He agreed & that actually was very helpful! You can always count on him, he's very trustworthy, we left our bag containing our passports, cash & cards in his bag & it was all ok! In the end, we had to go back to hotel & it would get very late, so we wouldn't find any dinner. He pre-ordered for us so that we didn't miss out on dinner. This trip to Reed Flute Cave, the Xianggong Hill which had amazing views at the top, the Li River Bamboo cruise as well the amazing night show is something not less of a spectacular event & a must watch, thanks to Andy!Written March 8, 2024

- Jakub W0 contributionsBest tour guide in GuilinCan't recommend this enough. Andy is a great tour guide. He put together a very comprehensive itinerary for a day trip to see the best that Guilin and kYangshuo have to offer. Andy speaks very good English, communicates well (suggest you use WeChat), and saves a lot of time thanks to his experience dealing with tour companies, ticket office clerks, local restaurants etc. We had a wonderful day, and all we had to do was to show up and enjoy it. Thanks, Andy.Written February 14, 2024
- lucycK1752ZK0 contributionsMust-do tour in GuilinThis tour was incredible, I would absolutely recommend! Andy was an excellent and knowledgeable tour guide. He tailored the schedule based on our needs, including helping us find a good place to buy the local fruit and making sure we got an excellent local lunch. Our favorite part was the bamboo boat and the local caves!Written February 3, 2024
- C7541LJdanat0 contributionsOur last-minute trip turned out to be amazing! best times exploring Yangshuo !!!Our last-minute trip turned out to be amazing! Our tour guide, Andy, was incredible - not only did he provide us with information and drive us around, but he also customized the tour to our preferences, to the extent we started calling him the no-problem guy, everything is possible with him ! We had a blast chatting and the ride was comfortable and smooth. We never felt rushed at the places we visited. On the way, we stumbled upon Kumquat farms and Andy arranged for us to pick our own. He even took us to a fantastic restaurant with delicious vegetarian options, the place itself was very authentic and charming. The sites we saw were breathtaking, and the winter tour was even better with occasional appearances of the sun. While the night show wasn't available, all the other destinations were open and amazing. I highly recommend this trip to experience Yangshuo up close. Staying overnight and watching the sunrise from there is a nice idea. And, of course, I wholeheartedly recommend our accommodating tour guide, Andy. It was the best tour experience!Written January 18, 2024

This was a once in a lifetime opportunity. I am glad I trusted Andy and went ahead with this tour. I have photographs of an exotic ancient world that doesn't exist anymore. Andy took me to a beautiful spot on the Li River where we could get still water and nice sunrise angles. He also arranged for a very cooperative fisherman who played along my requests during the entire photoshoot. I am just an amateur photographer but all my friends are gasping over my photographs. Every penny has been well-spent on this tour.
Also, Andy is a great guide. He knows the area well and is very helpful.

We woke up at 3 am to do this tour and didn’t regret it at all. Andy, our guide, drove us himself. Andy was on time, professional, accommodating, and friendly. Most helpful to us, he recommended a fantastic breakfast place that fit our needs perfectly. His English is great. The tour itself means about an hour drive through highway first then backwoods roads. Then you walk a bit through the dark to the fisherman’s boat, and you ride the boat (still in the dark) to a rocky outcropping. Then, you wait until the sun rises and sit on a bench from the fisherman’s boat. It was spring when we did this, so we didn’t get a “pretty” sunrise with colors, but it was still an incredible experience. I would recommend bringing a camera that works in low light, a lot of our earlier pictures were blurry. Then you walk back to the car for about 10 minutes. It finishes around 8 am, you can easily do things later in the day. Personally, we took a nap and then caught a train to Zhangjiajie.

The boat trip on the Li River was incredibly beautiful. It was very hot on deck, bring umbrella and fan. There was air conditioning downstairs. Andy is a fresh and sweet guy, took care of the important things. When you start the trip you are in a large departure center, remember to be careful.
After the tour, we saw Yangshou, which is surrounded by the beautiful limestone mountains that rise steeply and majestically from the ground.
The visit to the fisherman in the sunset was magical, He showed how to fish with cormorants or nets. Very beautiful and he was nice and present.
