This is a private tour only for you(your group), for the out of beaten track local experience in Guangzhou. You will have a full experience of the city from a local's perspective, with the company of a knowledgeable English-speaking local guide and a private car with driver to show you around the hidden gems in Guangzhou and have the traditional Cantonese dim sum for lunch.
In this tour we are not going to visit major tourist attractions, but to explore and understand local people's culture and life in the city. We will visit the pedestrian street(where locals walk and shop), grocery and vegetable market, local neighbourhood buildings, urban villages and old part of Guangzhou to see how the locals spend their time in daily life.
And optionally if you like you can visit a local family(a medium-class standard residential apartment in a local community) to talk and interact with the hosts(they are Cantonese opera lovers who went through the "cultural revolution" in their youth). ^_^.

5.00We enjoyed this tour and It was great for both of our kids (5 and 7) as well as grandma (65+) who was traveling with us. The tour guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and fun to talk to. We particularly liked the local recommendations as we walked by different places (e.g. try the local bakery goods around the corner and indeed it was very good). Our kids could handle the markets and the walk was easy enough for grandma. The tour guide also worked great with us to find our interests. We wanted to buy tea and we were taken to a tea outlet mall, and the shop owner made tea for us to try the different kinds — first time we tried tea stuffed in a dried citrus fruit and it was delicious (we went there to buy a specific tea (pu er) mixed with glutinous rice. Unlike other Chinese tours, they don’t work for commission so there was no pressure to buy anything. We have no hesitation recommending this tour to anyone. Karen and KC 🇺🇸
