Amazing half day tour of Guangzhou city.

We had a 19 hour stop over in Gaunghoz and we decided that we would like to see somthing of this city. So we booked the tour, our tour guide was Mango and she was brilliant, so knowledgeable understanding, helpful and has a brilliant sense of humor. The time we spent with her was simply amazing and we are hoping someday to do a longer tour with Mango throughout Guangzhou. The city is really intriguing and a beautiful place to spend time in. The driver we had was also amazing, picking us up , driving us around and dropping us off again even though our hotel was a bit further out than they would normally go. Thankyou to you both from my family and myself we really appreciated your professionalism and expertise.

One afternoon in Guangzhou

We spent a wonderful afternoon in Guangzhou. Everything was just perfect. They are really reactive on WhatsApp and answer any question very quickly. We had Mango as a guide and she was just perfect. Thank you Mango once again. Thanks to the driver as well who took us after the tour to the airport just in front of the departure terminal. I do recommend this tour.
