Explore the beautiful city of Guangzhou by joining this award-winning 4-hour cycle tour! We take you off-the-beaten track and bring you on an authentic experience from Old to New Canton: from the traditional and historic neighborhoods, to the shiny skyscrapers of modern China. On this leisurely ride, you visit historic buildings, a family temple, Kungfu studio, traditional market, People's Park, Beijing Road, the Pearl River, and the Canton Tower, Opera House and other modern skyscrapers of new town. Ride our classic 'Phoenix' bicycles, which give you the feel of the old China. But don't worry, we improved the brakes, added a comfortable seat and did other modifications for your safety and convenience. Meet the friendly locals and experience the contrasts of contemporary urban China. Our professional and fun guides, small groups, a route almost entirely away from traffic and a slow pace of riding on flat terrain, will make this a highlight of your trip to China!
