Day1 Guangzhou — Canton old town & dim sum
Touch down and just breathe — no rush today. Guangzhou is a soft landing, and your guide spends day one quietly working out your rhythm so the whole trip bends around you, not some script.

Day2 Guangzhou — Canton old town & dim sum
Slow start or early one, totally your call. Yuexiu Park and the Chen Clan Academy is roughly the heart of today, and we leave plenty of breathing room so nothing feels rushed. Food-wise, hold out for Cantonese dim sum — worth it.

Day3 Shunde — Shunde culinary villages
We’ll build today loosely around a Shunde wet-market and kitchen morning, at your pace and nobody else’s. Expect a small surprise or two your guide pulls out depending on the day. Shunde freshwater fish sorts the eating.

Day4 Shunde — Shunde culinary villages
Today’s the kind you’ll be showing people photos of later — double-skin milk and fresh-fish lunch, with the freedom to slow right down whenever something catches your eye. Lunch or dinner usually circles back to Shunde freshwater fish. And here’s the bit that’s properly ours: Cantonese culinary craft and dragon-boat tradition shown with a local family. Most tours can’t get you in the room — we can.

Day5 Guangzhou — Canton old town & dim sum
Ease into a classic morning yum cha today. Nothing’s rigid — your guide flexes things around the weather and how you’re feeling, so it stays comfortable start to finish. And Cantonese dim sum is exactly what you’ll want when hunger hits. And here’s the bit that’s properly ours: Cantonese opera and Canton embroidery (Guangxiu) — a Yueju opera session and an embroidery atelier. Most tours can’t get you in the room — we can.

Day6 Hong Kong — Victoria Harbour skyline
Honestly, this is one of those days people bring up for years. We’ll point you at the Peak tram and harbour views — and since it’s all yours, you linger where it grabs you and wander off when you’re ready. Somewhere in there, cha chaan teng classics, the kind locals actually line up for, not the tourist version. And here’s the bit that’s properly ours: a master tea-house session and traditional bamboo-steamer dim sum craft. Most tours can’t get you in the room — we can.

Day7 Macau — Senado Square & Portuguese old town
Today leans into the historic centre and A-Ma Temple. No stopwatch — your guide reads the crowds, the light and frankly your mood, and shapes the day from there. When you get hungry, Macanese egg tarts is the move. And here’s the bit that’s properly ours: Macanese cuisine and the Na Tcha temple craft tradition. Most tours can’t get you in the room — we can.
