Despite the very busy May Day holidays, Xaq 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 Xaq'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. Grateful thanks to Xaq for making this brief trip to Guangzhou such a meaningful and impactful one.

I booked Xaq 3 months ago to translate and guide me on a trip to my ancestral village with my family including 3 young grandkids. It has been the most wonderful experience which I could not have navigated without his help, being a non Chinese speaking Australian Chinese. He is the most attentive enthusiastic and kind professional, extremely passionate and knowledgeable about his culture. We are excited to discover more about the new and old Guangzhou in the next few days.

We had a great experience with our tour guide Xaq in Guangzhou! He was very accommodating to our needs, especially in finding delicious halal (Muslim) food. He was also flexible with our schedule, making changes smoothly as we went along. What we appreciated most was how helpful he was during shopping — not only did he help negotiate prices, but he even helped carry our shopping bags. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a kind, patient, and reliable guide!
