Xiamen Island and Coastal Tour by Car

Xiamen, a coastal gem blending mountain-sea charm, culture and romance, has two one-day tours. Choose one to immerse in its allure. For culture and tranquility, start at Xiamen Mountain-Sea Health Trail, winding through mountains, sea and greenery. Take a 20-minute ferry to Gulangyu Island, with shimmering seas and salty winds. Snap photos at "The Most Beautiful Corner", then visit the International Architecture Gallery. Opt for Huang Garden’s qipao tea or Haitang Mansion’s puppet show. Wander Yuyuan, Shuzhuang Garden, climb Riguang Mountain for views, and finish at Gangzaihou Beach. For nature and coastal fun, start at Xiamen Botanical Garden. Explore Rainforest World (mist, birdsong) and Succulent Area with exotic flora. Choose South Putuo Temple (peace, relics) or Zhonggu Cableway for mountain-sea vistas. Afternoon: sail at Wuyuan Bay—ride waves, feel winds, spot Kinmen. End with a stroll on Island Ring Road(Huandao Road) or Zhongshan Road, savoring local snacks and retro vibes.
