10-Day Guizhou Landscapes and Villages Tour | Xiaoqikong & Fanjing

Your 10-day Guizhou landscapes and villages tour starts with the following arrangements. Meet your guide and driver at the confirmed Guiyang airport or railway station and travel to your hotel. Keep the remainder of the day unhurried after your journey. If time allows, ask for a nearby walk and restaurant suggestions; these do not extend the scheduled reception into an all-day sightseeing service.

Travel to Zhijin Cave for 2.5–3 hours through the open underground chambers. Observe how dripping water creates different limestone formations, with steps and damp surfaces along the lit visitor route. Continue to Anshun for the night, positioning the next day near Huangguoshu. Total road travel is roughly 3.5–4.5 hours plus meals and breaks; do not add another major site after the cave.

Zhijin Cave

Give the Huangguoshu scenic area a complete 6–7-hour visit, using official shuttles between the main waterfall, Tianxingqiao and Doupotang. Open waterside paths and platforms show different scales of falling water and karst rockwork. Water Curtain Cave depends on conditions; no passage behind the falls is guaranteed. Return to Anshun with about 1.5–2 hours of external hotel transfers across the day.

Huangguoshu Waterfall · Tianxingqiao · Doupotang Waterfall

Drive about 4–4.5 hours from Anshun to Libo, stopping for rest on the way. After lunch and check-in, keep the afternoon flexible ahead of tomorrow’s longer scenic-area walk. If weather and hotel location suit, take an easy Zhangjiang riverside or town walk. Dinner recommendations may introduce local sour flavours without implying a compulsory included group meal.

Zhangjiang River

Spend 5–6 hours at Xiaoqikong, linking selected forest, stream and pool viewpoints by official sightseeing vehicles and walking. The old seven-arch bridge, Laya Waterfall and Wolong Pool follow the day’s open routes. Continue to Rongjiang for the night; road travel across the day is about 2.5–3.5 hours outside the scenic-area transport. Daqikong is not an extra stop in this product.

Libo Xiaoqikong

Leave early for Jiabang Rice Terraces and spend 2–3 hours at permitted viewpoints and village lanes. Water reflections, green rice and harvest colour follow the agricultural season, so the visit focuses on how the fields fit the hills and irrigation system. Continue to Zhaoxing or nearby Luoxiang. This is the route’s longest road day: allow 5–6 driving hours plus breaks and sightseeing, with no additional evening programme.

Jiabang Rice Terraces

Explore Zhaoxing’s drum towers, covered bridges and timber lanes for 2.5–3 hours. These are community spaces as well as visitor landmarks; a Dong Grand Song or weaving presentation requires prior confirmation. Drive 3–3.5 hours to Xijiang, then use the required local shuttle and luggage arrangements. View the lit hillside from an open platform after check-in, without promising a quiet or vehicle-accessible old-town hotel.

Zhaoxing Dong Village · Xijiang Miao Village

Keep 2–3 hours for a morning village walk and the planned 1–1.5-hour Miao costume photo session. Agree clothing, styling, photographer service and delivered images before booking, respecting local designs rather than treating every costume as everyday wear. Continue about 4–4.5 hours by road to Jiangkou, with rest stops. A quiet evening supports tomorrow’s mountain visit.

Xijiang Miao Village

Enter from Jiangkou’s East Gate at the reserved time. Official shuttle and cableway lead to walking paths around Mushroom Rock, temple buildings and open viewpoints. Allow 6–8 hours including queues, steps and rests. Red Cloud Golden Summit has steep narrow sections and separate on-site access controls; ascent is optional, with no promise of both summits. Descend to your Jiangkou-area hotel, keeping the evening quiet.

Fanjingshan

Drive from Jiangkou to the confirmed Guiyang airport or railway station, allowing about 3.5–4.5 hours plus breaks and traffic margin. A domestic flight or train after 18:00 is the planning preference; international flights need a separate check-in calculation. An earlier departure may require moving the last hotel and must be reviewed before confirmation, rather than rushing the return drive.
