“Enjoyable express tour of Guangzhou's historic landmarks”
Karen was amazing throughout the booking process and during our tour. Karen handled all the ticket entry details and translated things for us so we understood what was going on. Karen is knowledgeable, friendly, easy company and knows her way around Guangzhou like a pro. It felt more like having a local friend join us on the tour. It was relaxed and we had a great time together. It was incredible how much we fit in during the tour. I would highly recommend Karen for your tour. I felt like I left the tour with a new friend. I will rebook when I'm visiting again. Thanks for looking after us so well, Karen. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with you.

Thank you so much for your lovely words Sarah! It was such a pleasure spending the day with you and Cathy. Your infectious smile and sense of humour made it even more memorable! I’m really happy you enjoyed exploring Guangzhou and experiencing the city through a local’s eyes. That’s exactly what I love about being a guide — sharing not just the sights, but the stories, culture, and everyday life that make this city special. I had a wonderful time with you both too, and I truly hope our paths cross again. You’ll always have a local friend in Guangzhou! ^_^

“A fantastic day in Guangzhou!”
We contacted Karen on short-notice when our flight plans changed and we learned we would have a day in Guangzhou while on a layover before heading to our next destination. Karen was great at proposing ideas of what to do during our time in the city, and was very flexible with adjustments we needed to make based on our time constraints. She took such good care of us - met us at the airport, guided us through some must-see sights and activities in the city, and made sure we were back at the airport again in time for our departure flight. We really have nothing but good memories of our little layover in Guangzhou and our fantastic guide Karen, who was so enthusiastic to show us her city - thank you!!!
