Hi, this is Xaq, pronounced like Zack. I am a Guangzhou native and have been providing tour guide/translation service for foreign visitors in Guangzhou for 8 years. I am proud of my hometown city and keen on sharing with you the colorful culture, history, landscape and people's life in Guangzhou. Apart from Guangzhou city tour, I also operate one day's trip out of town to visit the neighbouring cities, countryside area and beautiful natural scenery, like glass bridge waterfall mountain, underground river cave, seven star crags, big buddha mountain martial arts culture, UNESCO watchtowers and villages and so on. Please check out my tours, and if you have any special requests, let me know and I can customize a tour just for you and your family:) I would be glad to be your tour guide in Guangzhou, contact me if you have questions or need any help. ^_^.

The star rating is 5 for Xaq in Guangzhou. He is so helpful and professional. He took us to lots of places of interest, tailor-made for us. He patiently answered our many questions. He is passionate about his town and so knowedgable. His driver Joe was careful and helpful, too.

Xaq was a wonderful guide! He communicated consistently right up until we met face to face, answering our questions and doing his best to be creative and flexible in building a custom tour for us within our limited window of time. He was pleasant, knowledgeable and very friendly! We saw a little of both the old & new city, but my favorite was our early lunch in a traditional dim sum restaurant!! *The city is a distance from the airport, so based on time, your tour may be limited to brief views in passing.

Our tour with Xaq was excellent! Xaq worked with us to design a tour which matched our afternoon/evening layover and sightseeing requests. When a visit to the Canton Tower wasn't going to work due to extremely large crowds, he was quick to offer 4 other spots to visit. The driver was great and Xaq was informative and so proud of his city. We saw Sun Yat Sen Memorial, had dim sum dinner, visited Canton tower, underground mall, and 3 other locations.
