Tour Itinerary
Day 1Arrival at Guilin (L, D)

Then ride bikes with your guide to visit the highlights in Guilin – West Hill, Elephant Trunk Hill and Yao Mountain. Elephant Trunk Hill is the symbol of Guilin and West Hill is one of the most famous hills in Guilin, but it is always non-touristy and not like the other crowded scenic spots in the town. Yao Mountain is the highest hill (903.3 meters above sea level) in Guilin. It offers very different views in each season. You can easily get to the top of it by the 1,416 meters long cable car and get a wonderful view of the peaks and surrounds. Return to your hotel in late afternoon. Dinner is in a good local restaurant where you will have a good chance to try Guilin cuisine.
