What you can expect

Meet your guide outside Zhongshanba Station or your centrally located Guangzhou hotel, depending on the option you’ve chosen while booking, and start your tour with your guide. Walk to Renwei Temple, a Taoist temple in Guangzhou's historic Liwan district.

Next, visit Liwanhu Park where local people dance, sing, and play games. See Lychee Bay, a place with well-preserved Xiguan houses that used to be the home of the rich.

Stroll along Duobao Road and En'ning Road, where you can observe local people, bustling markets, quaint shops, and a lively snack street, offering a glimpse into traditional Cantonese living.

Then, visit Yong Qing Fang in the heart of the old town.

Head to Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street before moving to Shamian Island, a lovely, tree-lined area bordering the Pearl River. When the tour concludes, your guide will help you get a taxi or metro back to your hotel.
