Amazing day in Guangzhou!

5.00We had an amazing day seeing the sights of Guangzhou on this tour. Our tour guide, Wenmay, was friendly, super helpful, and so informative with the history of each area we visited. We managed to go to: Canton Tower (observation area and pay extra to do the bubble tram because it’s worth it), Yongqingfang area, Jade market, Shamian Island, Bruce Lee’s father’s old home, and a few other pass by areas during this tour. We customized it to our needs since we had gone to a few other popular tourist attractions ourselves. The tour company was extremely responsive via Viator message and even accommodated our last minute pick up time change and drop off request to the airport. My suggestion is to do a bit a research to get a sense of what you may want to see, then ask the tour company for additional suggestions to build an itinerary that will suit your needs and stay within a reasonable timeframe. I highly recommend this tour company and ask for Wenmay as your guide because she is friendly, gracious and highly knowledgeable!
Interesting tour and...
