Nanjing: Ningguo River Fun & Old Street Private Day Trip

Beat the heat with a refreshing and laid-back private day trip from Nanjing to Ningguo, a scenic county in southern Anhui known for its clear rivers and easygoing charm. After a comfortable hotel pickup, your English-speaking guide and private driver take you out to a cool, green riverside escape.

At the riverside leisure area you can enjoy a relaxing morning of gentle water fun along a calm two-kilometer stretch of clear river. Try your hand as captain of a bamboo raft, drifting over shallow pebbled shallows, or float downstream in a life jacket for a soothing, no-effort river drift, letting the cool water and shady greenery wash your cares away. Beginners can also give stand-up paddleboarding a go, with professional safety staff on hand the whole time so you can simply relax and play at your own comfort level. There is no strenuous activity, just easy, refreshing fun in beautiful surroundings.

A casual local lunch is available nearby. In the afternoon you'll head to Helixi Old Street in Ningguo town, a historic lane first established during the Eastern Han dynasty. Once an important goods-trading hub in southern Anhui thanks to its river transport, today it is a delightful place to amble among old buildings and sample local treats such as Ningguo griddle cakes, traditional pastries and regional specialties. The riverside cafes are perfect for settling in with a cool drink and watching the Dongjin River glide quietly by.

The whole day is gentle, cooling and unhurried, ideal for hot-weather travel. Fully private and pet friendly, it suits families, couples and anyone wanting a refreshing, authentic taste of small-town Anhui without any intensity. Your guide handles everything so you can simply relax and enjoy.
