Yes, your guide can arrange the scenic cable car so you glide up without the climb, or the drive winds through the park if you prefer by road. Either way you reach the viewing platform above the city for the skyline photo.
Expect a fair amount of easy walking: park paths at Yuexiu, open lawns at Huacheng Square, and a long stretch of pedestrian street on Beijing Road. It is flat and unhurried, and your guide can set a pace that suits you.
Lunch is not included, which keeps it flexible. Your guide will take you to a genuine local restaurant and help you order Cantonese dishes or dim sum, so you eat the way locals do and pay only for what you choose.
