Li river cruise from Xingping to Yangdi - easy to do?

I read some forums about this section of Li River cruise that is supposed to be the most scenic route. How easy it is to get a boat or bamboo raft from Xingping? Also, how easy to get transportation back from Yangdi to Yangshuo? Thanks.

Have alook at this www.yangers you might find some info there

In yangers.com, they made it sound that it may not be possible to do it, depending on the situation/condition of the day. However, looks like many people actually did it, based on the foruns I read. That%26#39;s why I am a little confused.




To get the bus to Xingping go to the bus station and just say the name %26amp; they will put you on the right mini bus. They go backwards %26amp; forwards constantly. When you get off in Xingping there will be people hanging around at the bus stop %26amp; will offer to take you to the bamboo rafts. Just get one of them to take you to the raft - will only cost a few RMB. You can either walk down to the river or take a cart ride.





From what I can work out - Yangdi to Xingping: this trip on the river isn%26#39;t really ';official';. You have to get someone to orginise it for you but it can be done. You can catch the bus to Yangdi arrive there in the morning before all the tour boats come through.



I am booked in at the Rosewood Inn www.yangshuorosewoodinn.com and if you look on their website they have a runthrough of things they can arrange. If you get stuck for ideas maybe ask them.



Hope this helps,



Annie
