Authentic Shenzhen,
guided in English.
I'm a Shenzhen-born guide, business translator, and sourcing consultant. I help foreign visitors see the real city — markets, factories, food streets, design studios — and help foreign buyers actually do business here without getting lost in translation.

Three ways to work together.

- Hotel pickup in Futian / Nanshan
- Cash-free, card-friendly logistics
Custom Itineraries
A tailored Shenzhen plan delivered as a clean PDF, or built live with you on a video call. Hotels, neighborhoods, transport, reservations — sequenced for jet-lag, not Tripadvisor.
- Pre-built city packs (digital)
- 1:1 planning call (timezone-aware)
- WeChat support during your trip
Sourcing & Translation
I sit on your side of the table. Supplier shortlists, factory walk-throughs, sample logistics, and live business interpretation in Mandarin / Cantonese / English.
- Supplier vetting & shortlists
- Factory visit chaperone
- Contract & spec translation
Simple, written, on time.
No mystery markups, no “guanxi” pricing. Every engagement starts with a written scope and ends with a debrief.
- 01Tell me what you want
A 30-minute intro call (free for guide bookings) to understand your trip, your buyers, or your timeline.
- 02Get a written plan
Itinerary, scope, day-rate, supplier brief — whatever fits. Plain English, fixed prices, no surprises.
- 03Pay deposit, lock dates
Stripe / PayPal / Apple Pay accepted. 30% deposit holds your dates, balance billed after the trip.
- 04On the ground
I run point in Shenzhen. WeChat support before, during, and a written debrief after.
What clients actually say after the trip.
We came for two factories and left with a vetted shortlist of nine. Zara saved us a quarter of fieldwork.
First trip to China with a 7-year-old. Zara built an itinerary that was real, calm, and never touristy.
Translation in the contract negotiation was flawless — and she caught two clauses our lawyers missed.
Questions, answered.
Yes — Stripe, PayPal, and Apple Pay. Deposits and final invoices are billed in USD or EUR. Receipts include VAT-style breakdowns suitable for company expense claims.
I’m an independent local consultant, not a state-licensed tour guide. For protected sites that require a licensed guide, I partner with one and stay with you as your interpreter and fixer.
Yes. I can sign mutual NDAs, run pre-vetting calls with suppliers, and chaperone factory visits. I do not take supplier kickbacks — my fee comes only from you.
Free reschedule up to 72 hours before the booking. After that, the deposit holds for 90 days against any future date.
Shenzhen is home base. Day-runs to HK, Guangzhou, Dongguan, and Yiwu are common — billed at the day-rate plus transport at cost.
