Exclusive Guangzhou: Your Private City Transformation Tour

The tour was a fantastic overview of Guangzhou that was covered in a day. The park tours were a highlight. And the Dim Sum was the best! Thank you Xaq!

My guide X̌AQ was amazing!! Worth the investment. He contacted me the night before explaining the tour and took time to know me to adapt the tour if necessary. During the tour we had bad weather and some places were closed by the government, but XAQ was able to call in advance to the other sites included n the tour to ensure we did not waste time going to a place that could be potentially closed. He made a minor change in the tour to compensate the time we did not spend due to closure of the attraction. He explained many things about the city even if they were not part of the tour, so I learned a lot! The food was amazing!! This was a very local place (and famoius) that immerse you in the local life (something you do not see in popular touristic cafes). Also nothing is in english so definitely a place you would not chose as a tourist if you travel alone. I believe I was the only not local in the place. 👍 Because I only had one day to visit the city, this tour was an investment for my time and my comfort. Finally during the tour I had no connection/data then XAQ supported me paying with Alipay for me (my coffee and other things) I was able to withdraw money from ATM to pay to him. Very convenient if you do not have alipay, or have connection issues. I was dropped out at the airport on time. Excellent choice as I did not carry my luggage during the day or have to go back to the hotel. This sound basic, but there is a lot of traffic in the city and you want to avoid spending time to pick up your luggage at the hotel. I recommend the tour!!!

Xaq gave us a great tour of Guangzhou! I loved how a big focus of this tour was to see several parks. The parks gave us a great glimpse into local life. It was particularly cool to see the seniors singing/performing Cantonese opera at one of the parks!! Xaq also took us to a fantastic spot to enjoy some Cantonese dim sum. We were introduced to some local dim sum specialities that we had not had before at home in the United States. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who is in Guangzhou and wants to get a taste of what life is like there! Some nice extra touches was that Xaq was prompt, explained the itinerary clearly, and even brought along umbrellas he gave us to use to keep the intense summer sun off our faces.

Xaq is an amazing guide, and I highly recommend him for your time in Guangzhou. His communication from first inquiry to dropping us off at the airport were absolutely excellent. His is trustworthy, reliable, and incredibly kind. He has a passion for his home city and its history, and his command of English is really excellent. You will get a taste for life in this culturally significant global city that is off the beaten path of many standard China tourism itineraries. I highly recommend this tour and his services.

We had a really wonderful experience with Zaq. Not only is he very knowledgeable with local history but more importantly, he is very thoughtful towards looking after our elderly parents. He always made sure they were very well taken care of. He is professional, warm and has fluent command in English. He is very adaptable with the different needs and changes in schedule so it is best suited for our elderly parents. He also has a great variety of itineraries that caters to different interests! Highly recommended anytime for a rich and warm experience in Guangzhou!

Xaq, is a, One of a Kind, tour guide.., (probably the only one around...) If you manage to hire him, consider yourself blessed..!! The man is knowledgeable, helpful, respectful, accommodating, and virtually full of what one would look for in a tour guide. This blog would not be able to fit in the appreciation we feel, during our recently concluded trip to Guangzhou, and having him around Xaq, A Very Very Big Thank You, from all of us.... Sincerely hope, we get a chance to meet some day... Take Care & God Bless

Encouraged by the many good reviews, I contacted Xaq to be my local guide for GZ. From the planning and execution of the tour itinerary, I was greeted by a high standard of competency complimented with a proficient command of English. Xaq provided flexible solutions and suggestions to suit my elderly parents' slow pace. He has been very patient with our constant changing of the itinerary and instantly coming up with alternative plans. He is a walking encyclopedia while visiting the many places in Guangzhou. Xaq has gone above and beyond his tour guide responsibility to ensure my elderly parents are taken care of. Xaq is definitely your go to Guangzhou guide for private tours.

Everything went perfectly and it was very much booked last minute. I'm sure the planning had to be changed several times, due to digressions and requests, but I never felt I was being rushed, or that time was running out (very important, when you want to enjoy your rime) There's still many places that I'm sure Xaq could help me explore, but unfortunately this was a very short trip. Thank you Xaq, for helping me out all the way.

I got the chance to hire Xaq as our tour guide and translator during our recent visit to Guangzhou and it turned out to be an excellent choice. Xaq is attentive, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and professional, he planned and guided our trip well and even went the extra mile to fulfill our special request, without him we would not be able to get a deep insight to the city's history and culture. Highly recommended wonderful tour guide in Guangzhou!

Xaq was great! His English is excellent. He is easy going and willing to adapt to your request and needs. Be sure to say hi from me!
