Guangdong (Chinese: 广东) is a province in South China, located on the South China Sea coast. Traditionally romanised as Kwangtung, Guangdong surpassed Henan and Sichuan to become the most populous province in China in January 2005, registering 79.1 million permanent residents and 31 million migrants who lived in the province for at least six months of the year; the total population was 104,303,132 in the 2010 census, accounting for 7.79 percent of Mainland China's population. This also makes it the most populous first-level administrative subdivision of any country outside the former British Raj, as its population is surpassed only by those of the Pakistani province of Punjab and the Indian states of Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh. The provincial capital Guangzhou and economic hub Shenzhen are among the most populous and important cities in China. The population increase since the census has been modest, the province at 2015 had 108,500,000 people.

I never actually got to take this holiday because of the Coronavirus Pandemic. However, I would like to say that once the tour was cancelled and I asked for a refund of my deposit the matter was handled quickly and efficiently by Lorraine Bowman, the Customer Care Manager, who oversaw the return of the deposit to my bank account in less than a week. This will certainly encourage me to use them again for any future trips.

Delicious and delicate. The food in Guangzhou is the best. The old town is worth visiting if you want to know history and cultures of Guangzhou. Travelling in Guangzhou is not so difficult except for some language problems until recently the GZ government has had an interpretation hotline(+8620960169), which can provide great service for public affairs and government services. I used several times taking taxi and asking for directions, the interpreters are quite professional.

What to do with a full day in Hong Kong between debarking a cruise ship and an evening flight? Spending it with Jacky Wong of This is Asia Tours was one of the best choices of our entire trip. Jacky met our party of five at Kai Tak Terminal exactly where he said he’d be with a luxurious van that easily accommodated our group and all our luggage. After asking what we’d already seen of Hong Kong (our ship arrived the previous morning) he suggested we make a stop at the Kowloon Public Pier for a panoramic view of Victoria Harbour and a brief history of the city. Though we had been on two shore excursions the day before, Jacky provided a much more thorough explanation of why and how Hong Kong came to be. He is incredibly knowledgeable and articulate and also exhibits a great sense of humor, which made spending the day with him a highlight of our trip. From there we headed to Lantau Island while Jacky described the development of the current airport and supporting infrastructure. As we neared Disneyland and I expressed interest, Jacky immediately exited the freeway for a quick “drive by” of the park resorts. Then we proceeded to Tai O, the highlight of our day. This picturesque fishing village of stilt houses, canals and pedestrian lanes is about as different from the bustle of Kowloon as one can possibly imagine. And Jacky knows it like the back of his hand. He introduced us to many of the shopkeepers and restauranteurs as he explained the delicacies produced here and encouraged us to sample them. We had an extensive walking tour including two temples before stopping for lunch at a canal-front cafe where Jacky ordered for us based on our preferences (including beer!). A subsequent stop at Triple Lanterns Cafe allowed for a thorough discussion of the current politics and prospects of Hong Kong. Jacky was very forthcoming and insightful and we found his unique perspective very enlightening. Tai O was definitely a highlight of our entire trip thanks to Jacky. I can’t imagine we would have enjoyed it nearly as much had we ventured there on our own. From Tai O, we drove to visit the Big Buddha and affiliated temples, which were quite crowded due to it being the first day of the lunar new year. Along with all the technical information about the site, Jacky provided the historical significance (or lack thereof) of this recent attraction completed just prior to Hong Kong’s transfer from the U.K. to China. Following a spectacular and very full day, Jacky delivered us to the airport, where he accompanied us (and all our luggage) into the terminal where he directed us to the appropriate ticket counter for our homebound flight. Subsequently, he emailed about twenty photos of our day together, several of which are posted with this review. When I began looking for a transfer tour, I was really only looking for a way to spend the time between leaving our ship and an evening flight. Jacky Wong turned it into one of the best experiences of our trip. I cannot recommend highly enough that anyone visiting Hong Kong contact Jacky Wong of This Is Asia Tours. I am incredibly glad that I did.

DO NOT use this tour company if you are not from China. Our experience was nothing but a huge disaster. We ended up paying to literally experience the land on our own and get completely lost and we were not able to enjoy the beauty the rice terraces had to offer. The tour company only gave back half our money after all the struggles we went through and many many emails later.

I used Jenny Li business assistant and sourcing agent service for a number of factory tours in Shanghai. She found suppliers, arranged tours, compiled offers, and assisted with the purchasing. Her interpreter skills were invaluable. She also has great organizational and planning skills. My entire 2 week business trip was a complete success because of her. I would recommend to anyone needing to do business in China and needs help.
