Your Yangshuo holiday options
Introduction
Yangshuo is the ideal place for a holiday/vacation in China whether you are an Expat living here or a tourist just visiting. It offers many of the comforts of home, a higher level of service than many other parts of China - and real countryside within easy reach to ensure you see something of the real China.
Here at Yangshuo Expat we have the knowledge and experience to put together a great vacation for you. We are not limited to Yangshuo only - we often take groups as far as the Longsheng Rice Terraces on the other side of Guilin. We also know more generally about the rest of China if you would like advice on a longer trip.
The itineraries below are just an example of the type of Yangshuo holiday that you could request from us. We have tried to demonstrate how a little imagination in the ordering of events can make the most of your time.
Feel free to adapt these to suit your own particular holiday plans. Email us or use our Quick Enquiry form, and we can help you decide.
5-day Yangshuo holiday/vacation, Guilin and Beyond
Taking in the Rice Terraces of Longsheng, a Li River Cruise and Yangshuo
Day 1. Arrive Guilin and transfer to the Pingan, probably the best village for seeing the Rice Terraces of Longsheng
Day 2. Transfer back to Guilin at a time that suits you and your sightseeing preferences.
Day 3. Cruise down the Li River to Yangshuo. Perhaps see the famous light show this evening.
Day 4. Visit the village of Liugong further down the Li River. We recommend cycling there but can arrange transport if you don't feel up to the ride.
Day 5. Go bamboo rafting in the morning and continue on to the Silver Caves. Transfer back to Guilin for your flight or train.

Taking in the Li River and Yangshuo countryside
Day 1. Arrive Guilin and transfer to the Yangshuo.
Day 2. Get active today with a hike or a bike ride. We can organise either to suit any level of fitness.
Day 3. If you are feeling like a rest then perhaps start with some caves or take a lesson. Add a bit of interest by eating at a restuarant in the countryside. Just ask us for recommendations. This afternoon you could allow some time for shopping around town.
Day 4. This could be the day for a trip on the water. We can arrange several types of boat trip, including bamboo rafts. You may want to extend your stay and swim or take a picnic.
Evenings Evenings can be spent dining and enjoying the bars of West Street. For something different, consider the Liu San Jie Light Show one evening and Cormorant Fishing another.

Qing Ming Festival
Zhang Faye, 28 March, 2010
Qing Ming Festival is a tradition throughout China often known as the grave-sweeping festival. Although marked as 5 April on the calendar, actually this is a period of two weeks during which the family pay their respects to their ancestors by cleaning up the graves and offering sacrifices.
Li River Cruises: Low Water Warning
Zhang Faye, 28 March, 2010
Guangxi is part of the drought-stricken area of south-west China which is currently a top news item nationally.
At the moment the Li River water is very low, so the cruise boats can't start from Guilin nor finish in Yangshuo. Until normal water levels return, the cruises will start from Yangti and finish in Xingping.
