What are people saying about Guangzhou

Bheilee_O, May 2026

My father and I had a...

My father and I had a 19hr layover in Guangzhou from New Zealand, and wanted to take in some sights while we were there. From start to finish, organizing the tour with Sunny and Linda was so easy. We were picked up from our transfer hotel and escorted in a spacious van with great modern features (our seats were massage chairs!). We then picked up Linda who was kind, attentive to our needs and very knowledgeable about every place we went to and the history of Guangzhou. We specifically wanted to see the city night lights so they organized our schedule around that as well. My father has low mobility so was slow walking, but Linda made sure we still got to see the things we wanted and that he had places to sit when needed. The weather was grey with a bit of rain, and they even gave us an umbrella to use because we had not brought one with us. The driver was very good and met us on time at every place. I highly recommend booking with this tour company for a relaxed, friendly and personalised tour! Many many thanks again to your team for looking after us so well!

A perfect day of culture, food, and city highlights!

We had an amazing customised day tour in Guangzhou thanks to a wonderful guide who tailored the itinerary exactly to what we wanted. From exploring the beautiful Chen Clan Ancestral Hall and the charming Lychee Bay, to enjoying some of the yummiest dim sum at Tao Tao Ju, every stop was memorable. We thoroughly enjoyed seeing the contrast of old and new Guangzhou with its modern skyline, pedestrian bridges and iconic Canton Tower, before finishing at a bustling wholesale clothing market. It was a perfect day of culture, food, and city highlights!

Great service. The company was very responsive and messaged a few days in advance to help finalise details. They kept in contact the entire time from our destination to when our plane landed. The driver was easy to find and the ride to the hotel was without any issues

Private Day Tour to Gulong Canyon Glass Bridge from Guangzhou

Luis_B, Jan 2026

Lot of fun and excellent lunch

We had an amazing day. The park is huge and requires a lot of walking so sneakers are a must. WIth the help of our guide we managed to follow the path uphill and got the time to take amazing pictures. When coming down the waterfall we were given the choice of either walking or driving a mini-car downhill. Of course we picked the latter and had so much fun. The trip ends with lunch at a local restaurant. Lunch was plentiful and full of choices but the roasted chicken was the best. Perhaps the best I ever had.

Very good tour! Hassle free and very enjoyable!

Traveled to Guangzhou with my parents (>65 years old) and my 2 kids (3 and 1 year old) and we had a great time. Sunny was very helpful in planning our trip and our guide Winnie was very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend booking multiple tours with them to ensure continuity and a hassle-free vacation! Will definitely book with them in our next GZ visit. We booked the one day city tour and Gulong Gorge day trip.

Customised Tour with a Local Guide

Contacted Damon prior to booking the tour. He was responsive and able to accommodate to my special request to start the tour from Qingyuan and end the tour in GZ. He arrived earlier than the tour start time. Mini van that he arranged was big enough for our group of 7 with luggages. With Damon guiding us, we were able to cover Gulong Gorge in half a day and snap some good pics at recommended photo spots! Do not miss out the Cliff Coaster (Toboggan)-the fast way to bring u halfway down the hill! For the remaining half day, he brought us back to GZ for a dim sum lunch and covered a few other spots within the city!

Amazing tour with a Guangzhou native

Our food and city tour with our guide Damon was the absolute highlight of our trip to Guangzhou! He’s a native of the city and his knowledge and passion for its history, culture, (and most importantly its food), were truly exceptional. From the very beginning, Damon and his team were incredibly flexible and communicative. I was traveling with my older sibling, and we had slightly different interests and energy levels. Our guide listened carefully and crafted a perfectly balanced itinerary that satisfied both of us completely. We experienced the bustling energy of the Qingping market, had pure sugar cane juice and visited Bruce Lee’s father’s house and and even had time to watch the opera performance in the local park. What made the tour so special was our guide's ability to seamlessly blend the famous landmarks with hidden gems. I highly recommend this tour just given the guide’s knowledgeable approach and friendly outgoing energy!

Layover Trip to Mutianyu Great Wall&Forbidden City with English Speaking Driver

Gemma_L, Aug 2025

100% Recommend!

We booked this excursion really last minute but Linda handled our trip with great efficiency - she was quick and informative! Fang was our driver for the day and he far exceeded our expectations! We had quite a stressful and long trip to Beijing and were awful at remembering directions/meeting points - Fang was patient with us, planned things in advance for us and made sure we got exactly what we wanted. He ended up helping us for 12hrs with no complaint! His boss even got us cold coffees when we were falling asleep in the car... It was a lovely surprise to arrive at The Great Wall at 33°C with a cold brew to tide us over! We didn't have a guide but this was one of the best bookings we've made on Viator (and we make quite a few)!
