Great 4.0
The ship is composed of floors 1, 2, and 3, with the 3rd floor being the best for viewing, but you have to purchase a table for 200 yuan, as shown in the last photo. So I enjoyed the night view while sightseeing from the 2nd floor. I think it would be good to dim the indoor lights on the 1st floor during operation. Since the inside is bright and the outside is dark, only the interior is reflected in the windows. The staff is very friendly, and you can purchase drinks and snacks inside the ship, so please keep that in mind. I think it's worth trying at least once when visiting Xiamen.

Fantastic 5.0
Nice experience. We were given sufficient time to tour the Tulou. It was a Chinese-speaking tour. There were people from Singapore, Taiwan, Inner Mongolia, and other parts of China. Everyone was punctual and polite. The coach was very spacious, with only 3 seats in a row. The tour guide was a guy from SHANDONG. He was responsible. The itinerary was covered with sufficient time allocated to each place. To my pleasant surprise, we were served sour vegetable meesua soup, so that we would not be hungry before coming back to Xiamen.

modern clean bus, pseudo shopping stop at the first tulou stop (local guide was selling tobacco and tea while we waited for the photos to be processed) the tulous were amazing, last stop’s scenic area with water wheel was a bit lacklustre. lunch was communal, dishes tasty. mostly local chinese on the tour.

Our guide, Ms. Xie, was very enthusiastic, explained everything clearly, and helped us tour efficiently. While the island itself wasn't particularly noteworthy and we got tired from walking, the beautiful buildings, scenery, and delicious food more than made up for it. I would like to visit this island again when I come back to Xiamen. Thank you for everything.

Fantastic 5.0
This was our family's first trip to Xiamen, and the beautiful scenery of Gulangyu Island was very attractive. There are many European-style buildings, such as Shuzhuang Garden and the Piano Museum, which made us feel like we were in Europe, and we lingered and didn't want to leave! Our private Chinese tour guide, Mr. Luo Hua, provided a very detailed and clear introduction to the history, culture, architectural features, and world-famous figures of Xiamen Gulangyu, leaving us with an unforgettable impression of this small island. The tour guide was friendly and polite, especially towards the elderly, and would first find seats for them on the ferry. As for language, he not only speaks Mandarin but also understands simple English and Cantonese, so there were no communication problems at all.
