“Great experience ”
Dora was very friendly, helpful and adaptable. Her English was excellent and knowledge of Guangzhou was great. We are a family of 4. We opted for Dora to provide a car which was super fun. It would have been quicker and most likely easier to get around with public transport however in the heat, it was nice to relax in the quiet and cool of the car whilst we went in between places. Thanks Dora.

“Excellent Day in Shenzhen led by Dora”
We got to see and walked through the beautiful Shenzhen Bay Park, received drinks delivery by a drone, sat in the driverless taxi, had a delicious lunch at award winning restaurant and wandered through the multitude painting shops in Dafen Oil Painting Village, and even had our portraits painted. Dora was a wonderful guide. She cared and was concern for our elderly father throughout the whole trip.
