This full-day tour gives you the full Guilin experience by taking you around to some of Guilin’s most amazing attractions including the Reed Flute Cave, Fubo Hill, Seven Stars Park, and the symbolic Elephant Hill Park.
You will be picked up by the bus between 7:00 am and 8:00 am depending on your hotel location and then proceed to the Reed Flute Cave.
The Reed Flute Cave is located about 5 kilometers northwest of downtown Guilin and is considered a must-visit when visiting Guilin. The cave got its name from the verdant reeds growing outside it that is used for making flutes. Inside this water-eroded cave is a spectacular world of various stalactites, stone pillars and rock formations created by carbonate deposition. Illuminated by colored lighting, the fantastic spectacle is found in many variations along this 240-meter-long cave. Walking through the serried stone pillars, tourists feast their eyes on changing spots like a paradise.
After your visit to Reed Flute Cave, go to the Fubo Hill, half of which stretches into the river. Fubo Hill is a total of 120 meters long, 60 meters wide, and 213 meters high, standing tall in the northeast of Guilin, on the west bank of the Li River. The waves of the river are turned back when they hit the stone blocks of the hill and, therefore, it is named "wave-subduing hill" and translated into Fubo Hill in English. Later visit the Elephant Trunk Hill Park situated majestically at the southeast of Guilin city and west bank of Li River and is regarded as the symbol of Guilin landscape. Originally named "Li Hill", "Yi Hill" and "Chenshui Hill", Elephant Trunk Hill has a history of 3.6 hundred million years. Resembling an elephant leisurely sucking water from the river with its long trunk, this hill is famous as Elephant Trunk Hill for hundreds of years.
The last stop is the Seven Stars Park in downtown Guilin.This delightful park has been landscaped to encompass hills and natural waterways is one of the favorite attractions for both the locals and visitors around the world. The park takes its name from the fact that the four peaks on Putuo Hill and the three peaks on Crescent Hill that form the main part of the park replicate the pattern of the seven stars in the Ursa Major constellation (Great bear or Big Dipper). When the tour ends, the bus will transfer you back to your hotel.
