The team at Climb China has begun to offer guided climbing trips. We understand that our guidebook can be a great launching point for seasoned travelers, but it may not be enough support for everyone. In an attempt to open up the unique experience of climbing in China to all climbers, we have decided to create a service that provides climbers with guiding, accommodation, and cultural excursions. Our trips will be guided by foreigners who speak Chinese, intimately know the climbing areas, and know the best places in Yangshuo. These trips are an extraordinary way to get to know the sights, smells, and landscape of China.
The Self-Sufficient Climber Package
Yangshuo, Guangxi Province
This package is designed for climbers who like to figure things out on their own but would like some assistance orienting themselves in a foreign land with Mandarin Chinese as the predominant language spoken. This package is ideal for foreigners who want to stay in Yangshuo for a month or more and would like to make the most of their time from Day 1. Climbers who purchase this package will save money in the long run by getting an apartment instead of staying in a hotel or hostel.
This Package Includes:
– Meeting you at the airport in Guilin and helping guide you through the 2 hour journey from Guilin to Yangshuo.
– Helping you rent an apartment in Yangshuo (100-150 USD a month). Most landlords only speak Chinese, so it can be difficult to find an apartment if you don’t speak the language. Price comparison: hotel/hostel rooms usually cost 10-15 USD a day.
– Two days of guided climbing led by an experienced climber living in Yangshuo
– Help getting plugged into Yangshuo’s climbing community
– Beta on the best food, bars, and climbing spots
– Information on other local cultural activities and excursions to enjoy on your rest days
– One free copy of Climb China
– Help with ground transportation (bike rentals, bus tickets, train tickets, etc.)
– Climbing Insurance (optional)
