    Damon was a fantastic tour guide. Communication was very easy and he tailored our tour to exactly what we were looking for. Although it was just me and my friend, he also has experience guiding larger groups. Would definitely use him again if Im looking for a tour guide in Guangzhou.

    Our family of 4 had Damon as our private guide who took us along to explore what old Guangzhou has to offer in terms of culture, food and sights. Damon spoke good English, courteous and is an exceptional guide who even assisted us in our last minute request to visit a local pet market and helping us get there! This is a great introductory tour for first time travellers visiting Old Guangzhou.
