Pearl River Night Cruise & Eveing Tour in Guangzhou with Private Transport

Our tour guide met us at our hotel lobby. He notified the front desk to relay a message to us upon checking in as to his name, Jack, and when he will be by to pick us up and to have our passports with us. Jack was on time and he had a driver waiting outside. Upon arriving at the cruise destination, he purchased the tickets and accompanied us on the Pearl River night cruise. It was just the 4 of us, our party of 3 and Jack. Jack spoke excellent English. The Pearl River night cruise in Guangzhou was spectacular. The buildings, bridges, retail shops along the wharf were lighted up. The cruise was about an hour. It may be the best night river cruise that I have experienced. While during the night, water cruise, the tour guide provided background information about what we were seeing. But, what I appreciate even more is his knowledge of the history of Guangzhou and China. His insights provided perspective on the City itself and of the significance of the Pearl River delta. Lastly, since we were taking a Bullet train to Toishan/Taishan City the next day, not being familiar with the Train Station nor how it is lay out, Jack provided general instruction as to how to navigate the train station (it was hugh- akin to Grand Central station in New York) and to top it off, he provided his phone number to call if we encountered any problem. Jack is an outstanding tour guide. If we were ever in Guangzhou again, I would give Jack a call to enlist his service for a private tour of Guangzhou.

This was such a unique river tour with all the city lights on skyscrapers and the boats lit with neon to the max. Aileen, my tour guide was A-1, so thoughtful, communicative, went completely to the max to ensure my comfort and satisfaction. She made my cruise!!! highly recommend

Board the ship at least an hour after sunset for the best view of the city lights. you can buy the cheaper lower deck seats, and then get out and walk around to see the amazing light show of the city of Guangzhou. Bridges, buildings, high rises all sparkle with color and dancing lights, a really pleasing visual spectacle of eye candy... the best is to see the rainbow colors light up the Canton Tower, but all of the waterfront is quite stunning to see

<p>My wife and I thought the Pearl River Night Cruise a quite remarkable experience. Never before have we seen lighting used in the way it is on the Pearl. Brilliant fireworks have their place in ephemeral displays of light, colour and spectacle, but the elegance and the sheer number of riverside features, buildings, bridges, boats, ferries, all illuminated by the brilliant placement of lighting, made for a memorable experience for us both. <br/> It is a trip we highly recommend that any visitor to Guangzhou take in. Thanks to you and our guide on the night.</p>
