Xiamen Private Day Tour of City Highlights including Guyangyu Island

Pick up from your hotel lobby in the morning at 8:30, and begin the day by visiting South Putuo Temple, the most famous Buddhist temple in Fujian. Go on to Hulishan Fortress, which houses the world’s biggest canon for coastal defense, then enjoy a scenic drive on the island ring road along the east coast of Xiamen.

Lunch is at your own expense. Feel free to ask your local tour guide for an insider recommendation of popular restaurant.

The afternoon is spent strolling around on Gulangyu Island. Take a 20-minute ferry and set foot on this quaint and relaxing island famous for its colonial-style buildings, themed museums and artistic ambience. Visit the largest old villa on the island at Hi Heaven, where you can also enjoy ancient South music performance and traditional puppet show. Shuzhuang Garden will open up a surprising sea view in front of you as you walk amongst its deliberately designed layout with lush plants, corridors, and rock formations. An amazing collection of rare old pianos inside the Piano Museum will walk you through a rough development history of piano.

After the tour, transfer back to your hotel around 17:00.
