• 5Professional, flexible and knowledgeable service

  Our first trip to China, and travelling with a child and grandparents, we who are hard to please, this was the perfect service to sightsee and get to our hotel safely. Charles was quick to respond when booking and sent a detailed quote which was reassuring. Peter, our driver, met us when we arrived and was excellent and flexible with our hard to please group, even recommending a great dinner spot and calling our hotel when we were late. Highly recommend their professional, knowledgeable and local service

• 5Book this man!

  Jacky (Chang) Li was fabulous. He just organised our day for us and off we went. He had great “Chenglish” and was so helpful with getting us to the right place and where to meet afterwards. There are not a lot of English speaking residents in the Guilin-Yangshuo-Xing Ping area, but we had a blast! Thanks Jacky…maybe you could stop the rain next time? ☺️

• 5Excellent time in Guilin

  Great communication from Charles from the start. We managed to go to the places we wanted to visit and he made other great suggestions. Charles also organised tickets and pickup and drop off at the train station. Due to weather changes we had to change the itinerary slightly but Charles was quick at communicating with us. The restaurant he recommended was great especially the bamboo rice and chicken. The driver was on time and car was very clean and comfortable. We had a great time and would recommend.

• 5Day Tour From Guilin

  We booked an English speaking driver to enable us to make the most of our time in Guilin. Our driver was Peter and he helped us to explore areas a little outside of the city, that would have been challenging to reach on our own. We visited Yaoshan mountain, Daxu ancient town and Reid Flute Cave. His advice on the order that we should visit these places was spot on! We were amongst the first visitors at Yaoshan, so we almost had the place to ourselves - by the time we left, it was full of tour groups. We seemed to avoid the crowds throughout the day. Pete helped us book tickets and generally smoothed the way - removing the stress of navigating booking systems that are mostly in Mandarin. At lunch he took us to a local’s cafe serving some of the best noodle dishes I have ever had. We would never have tried such a place on our own. Was it worthwhile? Absolutely !The service from start to finish was excellent. Our booking was acknowledged within minutes and we were kept updated throughout. Peter was incredibly helpful, a safe driver and his English was clearly understandable. We would definitely use again.

• 5Upon booking, Charles was...

  Upon booking, Charles was responsive and helpful in providing suggestions for our tour. On the day, the rice terrace tour was very enjoyable and our guide, Audrey was a very kind and friendly guide. She accommodated our requirements and was very helpful understanding when my baby vomited during the car ride back. Overall, I would recommend the team!

About Guilin

Guilin, in Guangxi, is a river town among steep limestone peaks, best known for the Li River and the karst hills of classical Chinese painting.

Guilin lies in the north-east of the Guangxi region, where limestone peaks rise as steep green towers from flat fields and the Li River. The name means forest of sweet osmanthus, and the trees line its streets. In the city, Elephant Trunk Hill stands at the river's edge shaped like an elephant drinking, Reed Flute Cave glows with coloured light on its stalactites, and the Sun and Moon pagodas rise from a lake.
