About this activity

A full-day private excursion from Guangzhou combining two geological wonders: Gulong Canyon's dramatic waterfalls and glass walkways, plus an underground river cave experience at Cave Fairland. Ideal for nature lovers seeking adrenaline and scenic views within a 2-hour radius of the city.

At 8am, you will be picked up from your centrally located Guangzhou hotel lobby with your nameplate, then take about 2-hour ride to Gulong Canyon that is situated in Qingyuan. 

Upon arrival, you will start to walk on the path up to the Nine-waterfall running from the top of the hill to the pool, creating an impressive picture. 

Then you will walk on the Glass Walkway(520m) and Glass Bridge(329m) to view the canyon through the glass, then you will get to the Glass UFO Platform(202m), where you can view the wonderful waterfall running from the high mountain to the canyon. The Glass UFO Platform suspends 72 meters in the sky and is inscribed No.1 for its suspension span in the world.

Afterwards, you will take 1.5-hour car ride to Yingxi Peak Corridor, which is a nice natural valley in between those pretty karst hills. You will visit the Cave Fairland, which is a natural huge cave. You will walk in the huge cave, then take a small boat along the river back to the entrance. 

Afterwards, you will be transferred back to your Guangzhou hotel where the tour concludes.

Note: there are two booking options. No guide, no meals, no entrance fees are included for TRANSFER ONLY option. The driver speaks only Chinese.

Insider tips

  • Wear sturdy closed-toe hiking shoes with good grip—glass platforms are slippery when wet and waterfall mist makes paths slick.
  • Go early in the season (spring/early summer) when water levels are highest; the waterfalls are most impressive after rain.
  • Bring a light rain jacket and waterproof bag; you'll get wet near the cascades and the mist on glass structures reduces visibility.
  • Request an English-speaking guide in advance if available; the driver-only option limits interpretation of the landscape and local geology.

Good to know

  • Total duration is 10 hours including 4 hours of driving; the itinerary involves moderate walking and climbing on uneven terrain.
  • Two booking options available: 'Tour + Guide + Meals' (includes entrance fees, meals, and guided interpretation) or 'Transfer Only' (driver transport only, no guide, no meals, no entrance fees—driver speaks Chinese only).
  • Hotel pickup from central Guangzhou at 8am; confirm your hotel address and lobby meeting point at booking.
  • Bring water, sunscreen, and a camera with waterproof protection; Phone signal may be limited in canyon and cave areas.
  • The glass platforms are not suitable for those with severe acrophobia or mobility restrictions; cave terrain involves uneven surfaces and boat boarding.
