Passeios por Splendid China Folk Village

If you want to see and experience the latest Chinese technology in drones, robotics, 3D printing and self-driving cars, I would recommend this tour. I took the full-day version of the tour in Feb. 2026 and enjoyed it very much. The tour guide, Susan, was knowledgeable, professional and accommodating. For every one of the technologies introduced, she made sure that I was given a complete explanation and a hands-on experience. I actually had a bubble tea delivered to me by a drone, remote controlled a robot dog, saw 3D objects being printed and rode in a driverless taxi.

I had an amazing experience on this tour! My tour guide, Mr Jiajun, showed me exciting new technologies such as robo-taxis, drone delivery, and robo-coffee and also took me on a bike tour around the city, where I visited the statue of Mr. Deng Xiaoping in Lianhuashan Park. His service was truly first-class and even arranged a business-class seat for my on train journey.

（Originally, we signed up for a supermarket experience, but it was cancelled due to insufficient participants, so we switched to the McDonald's Little Crew Member experience instead.) This experience was very interesting and enriching. The children first had to collect their staff ID, perform a simple dance, then welcome guests at the entrance, clean the tables and the store, then scoop ice cream and make hamburgers. Finally, they received a certificate and a Happy Meal gift. The children absolutely loved it.

In just a few hours, our family, led by the tour guide, experienced Pony.ai's autonomous robotaxi, ordered food online delivered by drone for pickup, visited several top Chinese tech brand stores including DJI, Xiaomi, and Huawei, and even test-drove the AITO M9 to experience its near L3 autonomous driving features. It was a profound experience of technological living. Our guide, Ah Jun, was friendly and professional. A truly worthwhile experience!

Before the trip, Manny from China Memory Travel actively contacted us regarding transportation and meeting arrangements. On the day of the tour, there was a misunderstanding about the pickup point and an issue with the seating, but Manny was very helpful. The tour guide and driver was quite responsible, making an effort to explain things while driving. The other members of the group were all approachable. As for the attractions, the Golden Coast yacht tour and the observation deck at Diwang Mansion were both excellent. It would have been even better if the weather hadn't been so hot.

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.

A great experience, with activities and food. The food was plentiful, basically enough for adults and children to eat their fill!

Best tour ever! Many thanks to Eric laoshi. We hope to see you again in Shenzhen, and also thanks to our colleagues, the Liang family from Singapore. -from the Ham family in Seoul
