EASTERN MYSTIC CHINA PHOTO TOUR
The stunning landscapes around Guilin draw millions of visitors each year and for good reason – these fabled lands have been described as 'the most beautiful landscapes under heaven' we might not go that far but can safely say these extraordinary landscapes and people make for a very special photographic experience.
What You Can Expect Weather Wise: In October Guilin enters its golden autumn period when the weather is cool and very pleasant, with occasional light showers or drizzles. The temperature is around 24°C (75°F) or higher on a sunny day and may drop to 18°C (64°F) or less at night. Level of Fitness: Easy to Difficult | Most locations are easy to moderate walking but some of the Karst viewpoints will require a good level of fitness to walk up as well as some secure ladders to climb. There will be an alternative shoot where possible if you can't do the hike. Accommodation: A combination of comfortable 3* guest houses strategically located for optimal photographic opportunities Group Size: Min 3 – max 6 participants (non-photographer travel partners are welcome). We keep our groups small for personalized attention and not to overcrowd locations.
You will be photographing exceptional scenery; Karst Mountains, Winding Rivers, Limestone Hills and Peaceful People of Ancient Traditions. You will be guided by both our professional photographer and a local photographer who knows all the secret spots and has organised portrait sessions and home visits.
