“Shenzhen Tour”
We had a wonderful experience touring Shenzhen with Heidi as our guide! From the beginning, she did an excellent job arranging our itinerary and making sure everything was well organized, efficient, and enjoyable for our family. Having a private car and our driver, Jung, made such a big difference, especially since it was extremely hot during our visit to China. Heidi was very thoughtful and flexible, adjusting our schedule and activities based on the weather and our family’s needs. We never felt rushed, and she made sure we were comfortable throughout the day. Heidi was friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating, and very easy to communicate with. Together with Jung, everything ran smoothly and efficiently, which allowed us to relax and really enjoy our time exploring Shenzhen. We truly appreciated the care and attention Heidi put into our tour. It was a great experience for our whole family, and we would definitely recommend Heidi and Jung to anyone visiting Shenzhen and looking for a well-organized, comfortable, and enjoyable private tour. Thank you, Heidi and Jung, for making our visit so memorable!

“Great experience with an awesome guide ”
We were in a group of 6 adults, different ages, and everybody had a great time during our tour. Heidi is very nice, smart and professional. The tour itself was impressive. Riding the driverless car was very cool and so was receveing a drink by drone. Heidi took us to a great restaurant for lunch and helped us ordering food, which was delicious.
