This 4-hour guided bike tour in Guangzhou covers both the historic and modern parts of the city. Riding classic 'Phoenix' bicycles fitted with improved brakes and comfortable seats, participants follow a mostly traffic-free route on flat terrain. The tour begins with a short briefing at Cycle Canton before visiting the Donghaochong project (outside only). Next, the group explores Guangzhou City People's Park, observing local activities like singing, dancing, card playing, and the traditional hackysack game 'jianzi'. The ride continues through the Beijing Road Shopping District, known for its shops and food stalls, then crosses Ersha Island with a brief stop at the Xinghai Concert Hall. Cyclists pass the Guangzhou Opera House on route to the Pearl River, where they cycle for around 30 minutes alongside the water. The final part of the tour takes riders through Zhujiang New Town, offering extended views of the Canton Tower and other modern skyscrapers. The tour includes a friendly guide, bottled water, light snacks, and use of a bike and helmet. Participants meet local residents and see contrasts between traditional neighborhoods and new urban developments. Kid bikes and a tandem bike are available on request, and helmets must be requested in advance if needed.
