Dear Ms. Wendy,
If you are intended to go via Free & easy package. I will suggest you to spend more time in Yangshuo rather than Guilin City as there are more nice places in Yangshuo. Guilin is just a typical city area.
When you reach Guilin Airport, you may take Bus from Airport to Guilin City at RMB20 and change a bus to Yangshou at RMB15. It is very convenient (Taxi in Guilin Airport to Yangshou caused us RMB300).
There is a lot of local travel Agents, they are more honour than private taxi. They are given huge discounts fee by tourist spots. So their tourist package is reasonable. Remember DO NOT visit the tourist spots by yourself as you'll need to pay nearly 3 times higher than the Agents' price.
Do negotiate the prices with those Agents i.e Silver Cave RMB60/pax, Shangri-la RMB40, and etc.
Have a good trip.
