Your guide will pick you up from the hotel in Guilin city, to start the exploration of Guilin culture and city essence. (20 minutes)

Two Rivers Four Lakes Cruise: Start your day with a relaxing boat cruise along Guilin’s inner waterways — the Li River, Taohua River, and four connecting lakes. Glide past pagodas, stone bridges, tree-lined banks, and locals fishing or dancing. The perfect way to soak in Guilin’s charm from the water. (60-70 minutes)

Osmanthus Handicraft Workshop: Visit a cozy courtyard studio hidden in a back alley and handcraft your own fragrant sachet using dried osmanthus flowers, mugwort, and mint. Learn the cultural meanings behind each herb, and take home a personal souvenir tied to Chinese seasonal wellness. (60 minutes)

Dongxi Lane, Zhengyang Pedestrian Street & Xiaoyao Tower: Stroll through the historic Dongxi Lane, filled with Ming and Qing architecture, indie boutiques, and art cafés. Visit the Xiaoyao Tower ruins and listen to stories of ancient merchants and poets. Then explore the lively pedestrian street for snacks and souvenirs. (60 minutes)

At the end of the tour, we will send you back to your hotel. (20 minutes)
