Jessie's tours are AWESOME!

Myself and my boyfriend just got back from a near 3-week backpacking trip around China and I have to say, Yangshuo and the tour Jessie put together (4day package including a night in Ping'an) was one of the highlights! (To put some context on what we did, we did Beijing-Xi'an-Chengdu-Emeishan-Chengdu-Guilin/Yangshuo/Longsheng-Hong Kong). Our trip was fairly busy with a lot of travelling, so it was pure heaven when we got to Guilin and from the pickup at the airport everything was so well organised and relaxing. It was really lovely to see such beautiful places in Yangshuo and Ping'an without the hassle of trying to figure out travel and places to stay. Jessie is an AWESOME tour guide and she is so much fun to be around. Her knowledge of the area and things to see are great - also its great that she knows where and when to go to see certain attractions avoiding many tourists. The (private) boat cruise on the Li river at 7am was fantastic as you got to see the beautiful scenery in its purest form without the many tourist boats which start running later in the morning.

If you're planning a trip to China and plan to do your own backpacking thing, I'd highly recommend to take a break at some point for a minimum of 4 days and book one of Jessie's tours in Yangshuo/Longsheng. It was so relaxing and so much fun and if I didn't have to be at work right now I'd be back there in a second! Oh and the food is awesome!
