Guilin Cycling Tours
Guilin Cycling Tours is the first professional bike travel company in Guilin, South China.
The team was set up in 2013, and grew rapidly since then due to our excellent service. Unlike other so-called bike tours in China, GCT's cycling trips are focusing on exclusive off-road bike routes in the countryside escorted by our bike tour specialists, and we care more about the experience and satisfaction of the riders during the whole tour. Our principle is to build different interesting activities into a bike trip, which gets deep into the less-known places with more natural scenery and authentic local people's lives. The following negative things common during a regular tour will definitely be avoided in our trip: boring and sleepy time in coaches, tourist-packed attractions, jammed traffic and pollutions in the city, waste of time by forced shopping, etc. We would say NO to this kind of trip.

This tour will also be our company’s first time cycling there, everything is also new to us, there are around 20% uncertain things inside the itinerary, and even those well-planned parts can be affected if the local army, police, or local people says no.
