Questions

Are the cruise tickets included?
No. The car price covers the transfers and the waiting. Cruise tickets are charged separately and we can buy them for you — tell us when you book.
Can we stay in Yangshuo on the second night?
Yes, and it is the better choice if you want an evening on West Street. The car then collects you from Yangshuo on day three instead of Guilin.
What time is the cruise?
Boats leave mid-morning from Zhujiang or Mopanshan Wharf. We confirm the exact slot when we book, and tell you the pickup time the evening before.
Is there a guide?
The driver is not a guide and does not accompany you on the boat or inside attractions. If you want a guide who does, we can provide one for CNY 600 (about $91) per day, on top of the car price.
