“Great experience with Heidi”

Heidi delivered an exceptional full-day tour in Shenzhen for my 16-year-old daughter during her layover. She picked her up promptly at the airport arrivals and kept her under constant supervision, sharing tips on essential apps like Alipay while prioritizing safety and punctuality throughout. My daughter was thrilled by cutting-edge experiences like drone delivery and driverless cars, feeling completely secure and excited until the timely drop-off back at the airport for her late-night flight.

Heidi L.

Dear Gaetan, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m really glad to hear your daughter enjoyed her layover tour in Shenzhen and felt safe, well looked after, and engaged throughout the day. It was a pleasure accompanying her and introducing her to some of the city’s unique highlights. As always, I made sure to prioritize her safety and schedule to ensure she reached the airport on time for her connecting flight. I hope she has wonderful memories of her short stay in Shenzhen, and I wish her all the best for her future travels. Best regards,/Heidi
