November featured tale - R. Baillie
"Yangshuo is great, albeit pretty touristy on West Street. Brilliant for a long weekend of shopping, scenery, river trips, eating and drinking. It's a good hour and a half from Guilin airport and worth organising a taxi transfer to your hotel if you don't mind paying about $30 each way. As a western tourist, don't accept the first price in the West Street shops as they are just trying to see whether you'll pay over the odds. Start at about 70% below and see how you go. If you're after both scenery and a lively place to be based then stay in Yangshuo rather than Guilin town. Excellent breakfasts at Mei You on West Street. Hire a bike ( guide if you want to be shown the highlights, although you end up paying a bit more) and definitely go on a bamboo raft. We had a guide called Wendy who was excellent, although there are a plenty of guides to choose from. The river tour from Xing Ping to Yangdi town was very scenic, but if you sign up for the sunrise tour then don't set your expectations too high."
