Scarlett H.

Hi there! I’m Scarlett, a licensed English-speaking guide based in Hangzhou and covering the gorgeous Shanghai-Jiangsu-Zhejiang region. My friends often call me a bit of a story-collector. Having graduated from Cambridge with a degree in sociology, I love going beyond the standard postcard views to help you understand the real, living pulse of China (e.g. local stories, hidden details, and quirky histories most tourists walk right past). Everything I do is entirely customized around your vibe. Whether you’re dreaming of a zen day sipping tea in mist-shrouded valleys, hunting down the best under-the-radar street eats, or chasing futuristic, cyberpunk cityscapes for that perfect shot, we can design it from scratch. We can easily explore on foot, but if you want to travel in total comfort and style, I also offer car tours with my own very cozy private wheels, perfect for escaping the summer heat or zipping between hidden spots. Oh, and you can leave the camera duty to me! I have a real passion for photography and a sharp eye for lighting and angles, so I’ll make sure you go home with a camera roll full of stunning memories. Whether you're here for a quick weekend or a deep-dive adventure, just drop me a message and let's craft your perfect trip!

China

Moon Z.

Hi there! I’m Moon, your go-to Shanghai insider. With a background in tourism management and years of professional guiding, I don't just show you landmarks—I bring them to life. If you want to skip the dry textbook scripts and dive into Shanghai’s hidden histories, fascinating urban legends, and the juicy anecdotes behind the Bund and the French Concession, you’re in the right place! Let’s explore the secrets of this city together, one story at a time. Ready to see Shanghai through a local expert's eyes?

China

Pima W.

Hi, I'm Pima! I'm a licensed English-speaking guide in Hangzhou. I moved to Hangzhou from northern China in 2012, drawn by its lakes, tea mountains, and the weight of a thousand years of poetry. My background isn't your typical guide story. I started as a journalist, then became the only content strategist in a marketing department before I found my true calling: telling stories about places. I'm also a museum docent and a bird watcher, which means I spend my off hours in galleries and nature. What I bring to a tour: It's the result of hundreds of books, academic papers, and conversations with local elders. I specialize in the Dynasties in China, and the old shiny civilization. My tours are built on stories. Ask me about tea and I'll take you to the actual source. Ask me about history and I'll show you where poets once carved their verses into stone. Ask me what else I love and I'll tell you: birdwatching, stargazing, 3D printing, and finding quiet corners of this city that even locals don't know exist. I don't rush. And I genuinely believe that the best tours feel less like a tour and more like walking through history with a friend who happens to know a lot. Come explore China with me. Let's make a real conversation.

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 2000+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, no generic cookie-cutter tours—just breathtaking spots tailored just for your taste. Traveling with me is anything but boring, and you won’t need cold translator apps at all. I’ll share your joys and listen to you vent if things go wrong. Your Shenzhen trip will be totally worth it!

Ben W.

I am a government licensed English speaking tour guide in Hangzhou. I hold a Master of Engineering degree and used to be an engineer in a global company for almost 20 years. I am enthusiastic about history and foreign cultures. I also love traveling overeas and making friends from different countries. As a tour guide I will not only "recite" those standard descriptions of tourist attractions. Instead, I will focus more about the history and cultural background of them. I won't tell those exaggerated legends. I will still tell you some interesting folk stories, but I will clearly tell you which ones are true history and which ones are just stories. Instead of simply introducing tourist spot, I prefer interacting with foreign friends about everything that they are curious about China. China is a so different country. I can explain to you what are the real differences and where those difference came from. I enjoy my job as a tour guide. I see each trip with clients as a way of entertaining friends, not just a job. Hangzhou, known as Paradise on Earth, with the poetic West Lake, is the most beautiful major city in China. It has a history of more than 2000 years, once being the capital of ancient China. Hangzhou is a modern metropolis with amazing city views and a good destination for shopping. Hangzhou also produces the best green tea in China, high quality silk, a lot of famous handcrafts like fans, scissors, copper ware, and of cause delicious authentic Chinese food. Hangzhou has very convenient transportation. It is only 1 hour's ride away from Shanghai by bullet train. I highly recommend you make Hangzhou a stop when you visit China. All the tours can be flexibly customized. Don't hesitate to message me, tell me your preference and needs. Look forward to seeing you in Hangzhou!

Hi, I'm Amy. Born and raised in Chengdu, I've been designing custom travel experiences for international visitors since 2011. I help travellers, families, and business groups explore China on their own terms — whether that's sipping tea in a hidden garden, visiting a UNESCO World Heritage site, or connecting with local business leaders. Every itinerary I create is built from scratch around your interests, pace, and curiosity. What I Offer: Cultural Immersion — Go beyond the guidebook. Meet local artisans, visit family-run workshops, and experience traditions most tourists never see: tea ceremonies with masters, Sichuan opera backstage, and hands-on crafts like bamboo weaving and silk-making. Nature & Scenery — From Chengdu's giant pandas to Zhangjiajie's limestone peaks, I know the best routes, the best times to visit, and the quiet spots away from the crowds. Study Tours & Business Visits — I arrange factory visits, industry meetings, and cultural exchange programmes for universities, professional groups, and corporate teams across China. I handle logistics so you can focus on the connections. Family & Private Groups — Travelling with children or older family members? I design flexible, comfortable itineraries that work for everyone. Why Choose Me? I'm not just a guide — I'm your local partner. I've spent years building relationships with drivers, hoteliers, restaurant owners, and cultural practitioners across China. When you travel with me, you get more than a planned route — you get someone who cares about the details, listens to what you actually want, and adapts when things change. Whether it's your first time in China or your tenth, I'll help you see it in a way that feels personal, genuine, and memorable. Let's start planning. Send me a message and tell me what you're looking for.
