About Tour Guide Miaomiao W.
I’ve been a licensed English-Japanese tour guide since 2004! I know Shenzhen well—I’ll tell you stories about the "dragon’s sons" on ancient roofs and take you to try high-tech fun like flying cars, drones, humanoid robots, and self-driving taxis, super exciting!
I’m great at shopping too. I know exactly where to go for the best deals: cheap gadgets as gifts, real-looking knockoffs at China’s top high-end clothing market, and 2-carat lab-grown diamonds for just 1,000 RMB. You might even find a business chance you didn’t expect.
Need to visit factories? I can help—show you around, assist with negotiations, or find factories if you don’t have one. After the order is set, I’ll follow up on the progress and help arrange shipping. I’ve ordered clothes, jewelries, frames, lens from factories myself, so I’m super experienced and reliable!
I’m flexible, down-to-earth and easy to get along with. I’ll make a customized itinerary fast. Traveling with me isn’t boring—no cold translator app! I’ll share your joy and vent with you if things go wrong. Your Shenzhen trip will be totally worth it!

“ Fabulous guide. Excellent English. Hard working and fun. ”
Working with Miaomiao was so enjoyable. She is the best guide I’ve ever had. Firstly she’s intelligent, flexible and responsive. I contacted other guides but they just sent me details on their usual tours. Miaomiao didn’t. She listened and quickly came up with an amazing schedule that fitted my needs. Changing the route during the day caused no problems. She worked hard to make sure I got the most of each day. Days starting at 9am and finishing after 9pm didn’t worry her. She was so easy to get along with. We chatted and laughed and the whole trip was relaxed for me because she was so competent and professional. Secondly, she thoroughly knows Shenzhen. She knew exactly where to find the best range and prices for clothing and jewellery for me from the awesome wholesale markets. I recently attended the HK jewellery trade fair but Miao Miao found better prices for me in Shenzhen! Wow. She helped me with business opportunities that I didn’t expect. I also saw the electronic and robotic markets which she seemed to know well too and we had time for general sightseeing . Plus we had a ride in a driverless car! Thirdly I felt Miaomiao to be trustworthy and honest. She bargained hard for me for the right prices. Through her, I even ordered expensive lab diamond jewellery which she’ll forward to me when finished. I will continue to order goods through her from Shenzhen in the future. She is a great find. I highly recommend her 100%. She’s awesome. English is excellent and she speaks Japanese too.

Miaomiao W.
Thank you so much, Vivian, for your kind words—they mean everything to me. I had such a great time during the days I was guiding you. You're so kind, friendly, and well-traveled. Remember when we took that driverless car? We were so nervous yet excited, like meeting a crush for the first time, and we couldn't stop laughing. We shared lots of thoughts about different countries, work, and all sorts of things. We laughed, chatted, and even complained playfully together. We got along really well. I'm so happy to have been your guide. It's such a blessing and luck for me to meet a guest like you and get to provide my service for you. I'm looking forward to meeting you next time.
