Best of Guilin & Yangshuo Tour

In the morning, a private transfer will take you to the Gubeikou Section of the Great Wall (approximately 2.5 hours). Unlike the rugged Jiankou Great Wall you explored the previous day, the Gubeikou Great Wall offers a comparatively gentler hiking level. Much of the trail features open terrain with expansive views, making it a more relaxed yet equally rewarding experience. Remains largely untouched and lesser-visited, you’ll experience the stretch in its most original form and might even spot inscriptions left by generals from centuries ago.

After approximately 4.5 hours of moderate hiking, transfer to Gubei Water Town, which recreates the charm of traditional Chinese towns and is nestled at the foot of Simatai Great Wall. The natural landscapes and black-tile, white-wall architecture make it an ideal destination to unwind.

As twilight sets in, take a cable car ride up to the Simatai section of the Wall – the only part open for night visits. Here, under soft romantic lighting, the illuminated towers and shimmering reflections in the reservoir below create a dreamlike landscape. Enjoy a relaxed picnic-style meal, soaking in the atmosphere where history and nature meet under the stars.
