This was such a fun experience! The costume and makeup was great! I was a little scared getting on the bamboo raft but it ended up being fine. All in all, a great experience!

Sally and Bruce from Klook did an excellent job arranging our customized tour. The hotels we stayed at we very conveniently located and quite nice. Mr. Jiang who was our tour guide did an amazing job driving us around and explaining the history and culture of Guilin and Yangshuo. I would thoroughly recommend him as he was the best tour guide we had on our entire trip.

Lovely trip to Guilin and Yangshuo! Li River cruise and Yulong River bamboo rafting are fantastic. E‑bike ride through Ten‑Mile Gallery and evening walk on West Street were great fun. The karst mountain views are absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend!

Amazing Trips. The Guilin 4D/3N trip cannot fulfilled without a wonderful logistic guide by Mr.Zeng(_ _ .EQ965). He provided us with good informative interaction and thoughful travelling agenda during our four days tour with him. Even though we had communication obstacle in speaking of Mainland mandarin, but he will do his way to explained and provided the best solution to make our tour in a very enjoyable memories. Last but not least, his priorioty were always the "SAFETY FIRST" in our tour together with him. Many thanks.

What to know before visiting Guilin

Quick Guilin snapshot and what travellers book

Guilin draws visitors year-round for outdoor experiences and river cruises, with tours, cruises and events & shows leading bookings. Demand peaks in spring and dips in late summer, so the city's rhythm alternates between busy sightseeing seasons and quieter stretches.

Best months to visit and how prices move

According to Klook booking data, demand peaks in April while the lightest demand comes in August. Prices, however, don't exactly follow the same pattern: historically the priciest month on Klook bookings is August, and December tends to be the cheapest month. That means spring offers a classic peak-season atmosphere, while December gives lower prices and smaller crowds; August can be busy or pricey depending on the activity, so plan accordingly.

Tips for travellers from the United States

Most travellers from the United States book around two weeks in advance, with many purchases happening as early as about a month out and some last-minute options a few days before. If you want flexibility, many Guilin experiences can still be booked close to your trip, but for peak-month travel in April consider planning ahead to secure preferred tours or cruises on Klook.
