Hi...
I plan to go to Gulin then go for local tour ...
Can someone tell me where to get it and wat is the best price ??
DOes hotel provide those tours as well ???
Well if you're planning to visit Guilin area, then I'd recommend going a bit further to Yangshuo where there aren't as many rip off artists. Yangshuo is serviced by an hourly shuttle and accomodations and prices in general for everything is less expensive than Guilin. Also much cheaper to take the Li River cruise from Xing Ping which you can also take a shuttle bus from Yangshuo.
G'day,
I will suggest you to stay at Snow Lion Resort a bit out side next to the great Liu San Jie show.
they will help you with all tours etc.
nice quite place.
Hi,
I had lived in Yanshuo for 2 months.There are so many Foreign Language school there.If you go to Yangshou,I recommend you go these school first. some experienced people will help you and give you advice.
I suppose West street foreign language school and Omeida collage are preferable.
Price would obviously depend on what's included. Shop around. If something seems too good a deal, it probably is -- ie you should smell a rat.
Just came back from Yangshou/Gulin Tour, a local guide Angie (email:angie2000_08@hotmail.com; Tel: 0773 13197638186) provides very friendly guide and reasobable price.
Thanks for the info....wat is the pricing like ??
We, a family of three, paid RMB100 per day for the local guide's service.
I just finished travelling throughout China. I found a great local guide called Mulan while I was in Guilin and Yangshuo through this website:

In the 50 km from Guilin to Yangshuo, long segments of the river seem desert. Here and there, ducks and a few buffaloes, make us understand that the people is there, but living from something else than the river, disturbed by the out comers.
A half-hour drive from Guilin, the tombs cover 100 square kilometres and contain the remains of 14 Ming Dynasty princes. Four hills provide perfect 'feng shui', and the monumental statues are among the largest and most historically valuable in China.
This peak is the main peak in town. It's cost's 50 kwai to get in...... it's expensive.... and I can't say whether it's worth going or not... I do have fond memories so i guess it was worth it for me.... The views are amazing and you can see for miles all around. Sunsets are especially beautiful so I am told. At the base of the peak are various inscriptions carved into the rock by famous scholars past. Mostly they say how beautiful the area is. The Guangxi Normal university uses the grounds below the peak and there is a museum in the 14th century Ming princes museum, which is worth going to see... as many of the displays are like plays and the actors hang out behind curtains until they perform....which is not too often... There is also a tour guide who will try to pressure you into buying something from the souvenier shop.
It does resemble the elephant drinking water from the river. Between its trunk and the legs there is a cave called 'Moon-over-Water Cave. On its walls you can find many inscriptions coming from the Tang and Song dynasties. Everywhere in China you must pay to see any place of interest. In case of Xiangbi Shan the admission is about 15 RMB. But it's worth it. If you want to spend more money you may fancy a short trip on the raft.
There are many commercial buildings, banks, shopping malls and retail outlets in the downtown of Guilin. Some of the famous restaurants, fastfood outlets and branded fashion wears are located here. Most bookstores and VCD shops are at underground. Walk further down, you can see the Guilin Square which has a glass pyramid-like structure. There's a tourist information booth here. The roads are wide, clean and not that many traffic.
