Guangzhou (once known as Canton) is the capital of Guangdong Province, China's third largest city, and one of the most prosperous cities in China.
Guangzhou doesn't have a major tourist draw unlike "tourist cities" in China (Xi'an has Terracotta Warriors, Guilin has scenery, Chengdu has pandas, etc.). Many foreigners only travel to Guangzhou for the Canton Fair, but Guangzhou is also worthy of a visit for tourism... There is a lot to recommend: tasty Cantonese food, unique Lingnan (Southern China) culture, legendary history, awesome super-modern skylines, the energy of booming development, and more.
Our Guangzhou tours will enable you to discover the old and new of traditional and prosperous Guangzhou city. We have also designed tours to nearby areas such as Kaiping, Foshan, Chaozhou and Shantou, etc. Each tour can be tailored to match your dates and interests.
Our recommended Guangzhou tours below are designed to help you start to plan a memorable trip in Southern China. Feel free to tell us your requirements and interests — our experienced travel advisors are ready to tailor-make your dream trip.

4 day tour of Beijing
![]() We just completed our four-day tour of Beijing. We want to share our experience with you with Ethan Liu (our tour guide). Wow, we had a great experience from the moment we arrived in Beijing, where he greeted us at the airport. We already knew that the next four days would be a wonderful experience. These are some of the reasons why: 1. He connected with my family, including my wife and two boys. They felt comfortable around him, and we enjoyed learning about Beijing and Chinese history; he kept us engaged and informed. 2. He went the extra mile to ensure we had a great time; he even spent extra time after the tour helping me find an ATM. 3. He is a professional guide who is meticulous about details and will make your tour smoothly with low stress. 4. In all, much love and appreciation to Ethan Liu, Carol Wang, who is our travel coordinator & helped us plan our trip, and our driver, who drove us around without making us car sick. We highly recommend our tour guide and China Highlights without any reservations. They are a 5/5 stars company. Sincerely, The Nguyen Family more

Amazing time in Beijing with Ethan
![]() During our recent two-week tour in China, we spent three days in Beijing with Ethan as our guide, who left a lasting impression on us. Ethan navigated us through the historical and monumental city of Beijing and its surroundings, shared fascinating historical and cultural stories with us and left none of our questions unanswered. What truly set Ethan apart was his ability to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. His infectious good vibes made our time in Beijing exceptionally pleasant. He truly listened to our interests and preferences, accommodated our requests and made personalized recommendations. All that added an extra layer of enjoyment to our trip. more
