You don't need to worry about waiting in line because this is a private tour. The river tracing destination is near Xingping town, about an hour's drive from Yangshuo. There is a beautiful valley with few tourists.

The river-tracing guide will teach you how to wear a life jacket and explain the safety precautions.

You can see small waterfalls and hear the sound of running water and singing birds. The water is clear and you can even find small fish in it. You will acquire the skills to climb in the valley, cross the creek, and walk in the water. Diving into the pool in the valley during the experience is a fun activity.

The river tracing length is about 2.5 km. When you finish the river tracing, you will need to walk back to the meeting point along a country road. The total experience will be 4 hours (approx.).
