Guilin Author

Kevin · Cooper

Hello everyone, I’m Kevin Cooper, Guilin region writer and guide at Deep China Travel. Drawn by the region’s mythical karst pinnacles and mirror‑like rivers, I’ve spent six years photographing bamboo‑rafts on the Li River and hill‑walking beyond Yangshuo. With a background in geography and outdoor leadership, I thrive on planning active itineraries—river cruises, caving trips, and rural homestays. I also run workshops for travelers learning traditional bamboo‑craft and rice‑planting methods. I love guiding excursions under the moonlit karst peaks or introducing guests to ethnic minority culture in the nearby Longji Terraces. My aim is to help you experience Guilin’s natural beauty, deep rural heritage, and laid‑back pace—all while creating lasting memories in one of China’s most iconic landscapes.
