Fantastic experience! We loved our time there. The staff were nice and accomodating. You really just have to be early around 2-3 hours so that you can do the dress, makeup and photoshoot without the time crunch. Remember that there are others as well doing the same thing as you and the photographer is so dedicated that it will take some time. The food was good! The perfomance was superb! I recommend!

We had an absolutely wonderful day with our tour guide Tommy and our driver Ajay. Tommy shared his extensive knowledge of Guangzhou's complex history and his local knowledge of the food, attractions and shopping. He took us to so many interesting places. Highlights included the Yong Qing Fang district, Beijing Road Pedestrian Street, the Cantonese Opera Museum plus so much more. The Pearl River night cruise was another great experience. Tommy looked after us every step of the way and helped us to take some great photos. When he realised I liked street art, he took a short detour to show me some! He was even happy to give us advice for the rest of our visit. Thank you!

The tour was great. Managed to visit most of the key locations in Foshan and Shunde. The lion dance show was very crowded however. But the walking street and Water Village was also nice highlights. Managed to try many local delicacies and bought many souvenirs. The driver was really good. He dropped us at the right spot and picked us up from wherever we ended up at the end of our walk.

What to know before visiting Guangzhou

Quick snapshot of Guangzhou City and its attractions

Guangzhou City is a lively destination where theme parks, observation decks and events & shows drive most bookings, with tours and zoos also popular. Demand swings through the year — strong peaks around January and quieter late-winter and late-summer lulls — so the city alternates between busy festival-style periods and calmer stretches.

Best months to visit and how prices behave

Klook booking data show January is the busiest month while August sees the weakest demand. Prices do not exactly follow demand: Klook data indicate August is typically the priciest month, while October is usually the cheapest. For lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for October or the quieter trough months; for peak-season atmosphere and events, visit in January when demand is highest.

Tips for travellers from Malaysia

Most experiences in Guangzhou can be booked close to arrival—typical travellers book about three days ahead, with some last-minute availability a day before. If you plan to visit in January (the peak period), consider securing popular activities earlier since that is when demand rises; otherwise, flexibility and short lead times make spontaneous planning easy on Klook.
