Judy’s mission is to educate, enlighten, and entertain clients through the history and culture of Vancouver’s Chinatown.
My vision is to be Vancouver’s most informative and engaging Tour Company in Chinatown, enlightening clients about Chinatown’s segregated past from the rest of the city, including its dynamic and cutting-edge present and what might be in store for its future.
My primary goal is to make these Chinatown tours mutually beneficial to participants and the Chinatown community. I aim to raise money to restore Chinatown’s heritage buildings, meanwhile educate participants about its difficult past, and the now-revitalized neighbourhood.
I also want my participants to experience Chinatown’s various unique cultural and modern businesses, bringing attention to their value and importance of their products and function in the community.
