Commencing in the old part of Yangshuo, you will ride with your experienced, English-speaking guide, alongside the clean, fast- flowing waters of the Yulong River through the beautiful karst countryside for which this area is famous. You will pass through rich farmland and stop briefly in the 1200 year old village of Jiuxian, which dates back to the Tang Dynasty. Here you may pick up some of the luscious local fruits, before continuing on to Baisha town. You will stop on the way at Dashi Bridge, where the Yulong River meets the Li River, giving you a surreal scene often portrayed in many Chinese paintings. You will also visit Xiangui Bridge, which is the oldest stone bridge in the Guangxi.
