10 out of 10 - We had a the most spectacular sunrise tour ever. Thanks to Andy, who placed us at the perfect spot, we were right at the front of the edge. Nature showed its stunning beauty, and we could enjoy it with the best view. We would go with Andy again!

Best possible service - I am a passionate photographer and Andy did everything to make the journey perfect. He collected me early enough from the hotel and brought me to the best point on the observation desk from where I could make the most amazing photos. On the way back he also halted the car so that I could shoot several more beautiful pictures. Andy is an excellent entertainer and during the journey you will not be bored. So, the whole journey was very well planned and executed.

Breathtaking view and experience! - Breathtaking view 🤩 and so great to experience it with the sun rising! You have a stunning panorama view on the valley and the mountains! It is a very unique experience where you see one of China’s wonder. I added on top the 1 hour river cruise! Super combo! Because you see it from the top and from the river side! Certainly a must do when in Guilin

Sunrise hike 10/10 - Andy was fantastic! His easy manner of communicating, timeliness, and professionalism all helped create the perfect sunrise hike in Yangshuo. I cannot recommend him and the Xianggong Shan sunrise hike enough, especially if the weather is right. Experienced the most beautiful sunrise I’ve ever seen. Thanks again Andy! We will be back!

Great guide, great tour, AMAZING vistas - Andy is a fantastic guide. He is friendly, knowledgeable, personable, responsive, engaging, and punctual. This private tour is ideal if you want personalized attention by someone who truly knows the mountains and where to see the best views, including where to stand and when to get there to take on the best views.

Andy speaks excellent and understandable English, good driver, clean modern car - Andy was quick to respond to our questions, arrived on time and gave information without constantly talking (it was very early morning)!
Gave good pointers on climbing the stairs and what to watch for.
Beautiful sunrise - well worth getting up so early
