Memorable May Day in Guangzhou

Despite the very busy May Day holidays, Zack adjusted his guiding schedule to accommodate me on this fascinating day tour of Guangzhou where we witnessed both the old and new parts of Guangzhou. I had a deeper insight into the culture, food and sights of Guangzhou through Zack's expert guiding where he and the driver planned the routing to maximise the day fully. We had a delicious dim sum lunch where we tried 6 different food items, including an exquisite egg and milk tart plus panfried leek dumpling. My favourite two sights were the Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall and the Nanyue King Museum which enabled me to have a better appreciation of the long history of the lords and kings who ruled over this part of China. Heartfelt thanks to Zack for making my maiden and brief trip to Guangzhou such a meaningful and memorable one.

He explained the history of GZ in English. I m very amazed by his eloquence in English. I have learned so much from his commentary about Guangzhou City. Best wishes and Thank you Zack

Damon, you helped a lot in our trip. Thank you very much

Our tour guide/leader was Damon. He was very warm and accommodating. Explained all significant things during the sites we visited. He is very thorough and kind. Truly enjoyed it more because he spoke English very well and translated everything when we could not understand the other things. Surely will keep in touch with him for our future visits.
