About this activity
Hi, this is Xaq, pronounced like Zack. I am a Guangzhou native and have been providing tour guide/translation service for foreign visitors in Guangzhou for 8 years.
I am proud of my hometown city and keen on sharing with you the profound culture, history, landmark and people's life in Guangzhou. My fluent oral English skill as well as solid local knowledge has won 300+ Excellent 5-Star reviews from travellers on TripAdvisor, which is a proof of my dedicated career.
Default selected tour option on TripAdvisor is for my standard 7 hours Guangzhou guided tour with private car transportation including hotel pick up in downtown Guangzhou.
Apart from Guangzhou city tour, I also provide out of town day trip tours to visit beautiful natural scenery and historical/cultural relics from Guangzhou.
Contact me for any tour inquiry, and I could offer some private tour options with better rate for you, it's my pleasure to help build your best private tour experience in Guangzhou, thank you. ^_^.
