5.00Damon was an excellent guide and I highly recommend his services. We had a great time on our tour of the riverfront area, the river cruise, and going up Canton tower. If you want a knowledgeable tour guide for the Guangzhou area that speaks very good English, Damon is your guy.
Best tour guide!!!

Memorable Trip with an Exceptionally Caring Guide

5.00We had an unforgettable trip to Guangzhou, made even more special thanks to our amazing tour guide, Damon. He was not only knowledgeable and organized, but also deeply thoughtful and attentive to every member of our group. One moment that truly stood out was when two of our group members got separated in a large crowd while walking towards Canton Tower. Damon immediately stepped in and calmly searched for them amidst the busy crowd, ensuring everyone was safe and reunited quickly. His care and composure truly gave us peace of mind. Throughout the trip, Damon went above and beyond — from handling last-minute changes to even offering his shoulder for support when one of our family members’ walking stick broke at Gulong Gorge. His kindness, patience, and personal touch turned our holiday into a heartfelt experience. Highly recommended — thank you, Damon, for making our journey smooth, fun, and so memorable!

5.00My friend and I visited Guangzhou for the first time and had an amazing experience with Damon. He was patient, courteous and knowledgeable. He explained all the sites to us in detail and it was so interesting to learn about the culture. And to see all the buildings lit up at night was so pretty. We had such a great time. Thank you Damon!!!

4.00A cruising along Pearl River to appreciate the night scenes, watching Cantonese Opera to explore further and deeper about Cantonese culture, meeting young and experiencing the lively Guangzhou nightlife in one of the many bars, and watching a Circus performance in Chimelong Resort. In addition, Yanjiang Road, Tianhe CBD, Beijing Road, and Huanshi East Road are favorable places to spend colorful Guangzhou nightlife for foreigners.
