The Perfect Introduction to Guangzhou - Exploring Guangzhou with Leeann was a delightful experience, filled with relaxed charm and local insights. She picked me up at my hotel in the morning, and then we wandered through the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall and the vibrant Beijing Road area per my request. Every moment was a joy! The highlight was the incredible Dim Sum lunch at the end, especially the rice noodle rolls. Leeann's easy-going nature made the day feel like a casual outing with a knowledgeable friend. Her tour perfectly captured the essence of Guangzhou, blending culture, history, and great food into a wonderfully laid-back and enriching day.

Best Day Trip! - Leeann was the best tour guide I could ever ask for! The tour was very comfortable from picking me up to the hotel to dropping me back to the airport. Felt like it was just two friends hanging out. She was knowledgeable and fun to be around 10/10
