Description
Cruise the Li River from Guilin to Yangshuo on a 4-star ship, admiring dramatic karst peaks. Enjoy private hotel transfers, a Chinese buffet lunch, luggage-friendly travel, and English online support.
Your adventure begins with a private pickup from your hotel in central Guilin, typically between 7:30 and 9:00 AM depending on the confirmed cruise departure time (exact timing sent the day before).
Travel by air-conditioned vehicle to Zhujiang Pier and board a shared 4-star Li River cruise bound for Yangshuo.
Over the next 4 to 4.5 hours, relax on deck and take in the dramatic karst peaks, bamboo-lined riverbanks, and traditional villages that have made this stretch of the Li River famous worldwide.
A Chinese buffet lunch is served on board, usually around midday, giving you a taste of local cuisine as the scenery drifts by.
Upon arrival at Longtoushan Pier in Yangshuo, hop on the included electric shuttle to the parking area, where your driver will be waiting to take you to your Yangshuo hotel.
You're welcome to bring your luggage aboard, making this a great option if you're checking out of Guilin and continuing on to Yangshuo.
Please note: the cruise itself is shared with other passengers, while your road transfers are private. The driver speaks Chinese only, and no English-speaking guide or commentary is provided on board — however, English-language online support is available before and during your trip.
This experience concludes at your hotel in Yangshuo. Onward transport back to Guilin is not included.
