We had a 30 hour layover in Guangzhou and decided to take a tour. We booked with Albert who picked us up at the airport arrivals and we headed straight to the sights. He was a great guide, showing us all the best of the city and then drove us back to a hotel that we had booked so that we were refreshed for our onward flight. Highly recommended.
Would highly recommend!

Albert had a challenging task of showing Guangzhou to a family of 5 (including an elderly father in a wheelchair) on a wet rainy day. The itinerary was flexible and catered to our needs. He is friendly, kind and a good communicator. We felt very well looked after!
Good service of Albert!
