Visit the paradise jungle - Our driver picked us up at the hotel at 8:30am. He was very kind and we conversed a lot in English. At around 10.15am we arrived at the pier where we were supposed to leave with the boats. I suggest traveling in groups of 2 or 4, not 3 otherwise you will pay a supplement (the boats have 4 seats) if you cannot find a single person to share the boat. The view from the river is crazy.
After disembarking around midday we walked along the river bank for 5 km until we reached the main town where we had lunch with Rice noodles.
After lunch we climbed the mountain overlooking the town in about 45 minutes. From the top we admired a unique panorama. I suggest bringing water and hiking shoes. After descending from the mountain we took a ferry across the river and met up with our driver who took us back to the hotel. Along the way he showed us some wonderful landscapes and stopped to let us enjoy the view.
We arrived at the hotel at 6.30pm

Amazing 5 star experience - Leo was an amazing tour guide for the entire day. He was extremely accommodating and ensured we had all the information on particular areas of interest that we needed. He even sent a hat back to me that we left in the car! Can't fault the service and quality.

Memorable Trip with Great host Jade Leo (å¾·å¾·) - It was our first trip to Guilin, China. We booked a private tour with Jade Leo as our driver + guide. Jade's English is really good and very helpful. He took us to the Tea Field,The Mausoleums of Jing Jiang, Ancient Town and rafting along the famous Li River. He was really patient with us throughout the entire tour allowing us to take as much time as we needed for memorable pictures and just to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Guilin. We will absolutely book Jade as our tour guide again the next time we visit Guilin. Highly recommended. A+++ service. Thank you again Jade Leo for your excellent service. å¾·å¾·åŠ æ²¹!!!

Nice Local Guide - Just a quick line to say thank you for looking after me on my trip to Guilin. I had a great time and will have to visit again one day. A few people have asked me about my guide so hopefully they might book you as well if they decide to visit the area.

Great country - We had a fantastic time in Guilin. It must be one of the beautiful places on earth, we both agree that both the river and the landscape is truly a place worth visiting. Also the town of Yangshou is very well suited for us foreigners. We took the train from Shanghai and that in it self was really fun. It was such a difference coming from Shanghai with its skyscapers to small Yangshou in the country. Along the beautiful river we visited a cave (the water cave), and its was one of the most fun things we have ever done.
Sad that chinese language is so hard to learn. We tried to learn a little mandarin, but is very hard to make it right. When in China, sometimes the taxi-driver would not let us in, because we could not pronounce the name of the street right !!
Nice that you could still remember us, we hope that all is well in Guilin, please try to take good care of your land, it is so easy to destroy everything with factories and pollution.

PERFECT - Had a most gratifying encounter with the Guilin Private Tours team. Our first communication was with Andy, who advised us patiently and thoroughly, with no pressure at all. Later, Andy connected us with Leo Jade and this proved to be a very smart and thrifty move since Leo is both driver and guide.
Leo's service was flawless. Realizing that most of our travels are independent, Leo gave us all the space we wanted. On the other hand he did his best to answer all our questions and align himself with our inclinations. One spontaneous detour we took was to the enchanting village of Fulizhen, where we met local artists as well as parents and school children on their way home after school.
There was some time left before the extraordinary IMPRESSIONS Light Show in Yangshuo (highly recommended!), so Leo suggested a relaxing foot message, which proved to be amongst the best we ever experienced.
Our day with Leo was perfect, from the first to the last minute. We are very grateful and appreciative.

Wonderful Host in Guilin - Hello Leo, We booked Leo's services and where not disappointed! He showed us the beautiful scenes in Guilin.
We booked a Private Tour with him in which he picked us up from our hotel to take us on a bamboo raft down the Li River. On Route he took us to old town, Tea Fields and a Tomb.
His English and knowledge is very good and I would highly recommend him to anyone going to Guilin.

What a wonderful tour in Guilin - Thanks for the wonderful trip!
We found Leo at tripadvisor and contacted him, He arranged for hotel accommodations and for airport pick up – and drop off, all was handled extremely well. We did the bamboo rafting in Yulong River and it was so nice and peaceful, even I wanted to do it again. The view of sunrise at Xianggong Hill was awesome, and Cormorant Fishing Show that were real highlights of the whole trip.
We hope to come back to China using your services in the future.
