FAQ

Shenzhen Tour Guide for a Private Day Out: your questions.

How much does a private tour guide cost in Shenzhen?
A private Shenzhen guide is about $120–$180 for a full day, or from $80 for a half day, and that is for your whole group, not per person. Entrance tickets, meals and any out-of-city car are separate, and every day is custom-quoted with a written figure within 12 hours.
Is the price per person or for the whole group?
For the whole group. One guide and the day rate cover everyone, whether you are two people or six, so the cost per head drops as the group grows. Only a private car, if you add one, scales with the size of the group. Many online listings quote per person, which is why a private group rate often works out cheaper.
What is included in the tour guide fee?
The fee covers the guide's time for the day and travel within the city. Entrance tickets, meals and any out-of-city car or driver are billed separately, so you only pay for what your plan needs. You will see the full breakdown in the written quote before anything is booked.
Is Shenzhen good for sourcing as well as sightseeing?
Very. Shenzhen is China's first Special Economic Zone and home to its major tech manufacturers. The same interpreter who shows you the city can run your factory visits and supplier meetings as your Shenzhen interpreter.
Can I combine Shenzhen with Hong Kong?
Yes, they border each other. A Shenzhen sourcing day pairs naturally with a Hong Kong day across the line.
Is Shenzhen safe for visitors?
Yes. Shenzhen is a young, modern city and one of the safer places you'll visit, secure day and night with the usual care for valuables in the busy electronics markets. See our Shenzhen safety guide.
When is the best time to visit Shenzhen?
Autumn into early winter, roughly October to December, is the most comfortable: dry and mild. Summers are hot and humid. See the best time to visit Shenzhen.
How do I get around Shenzhen?
The metro is modern, cheap and bilingual, and it reaches the theme parks, the coast and the markets. DiDi covers the rest. The factory zones out in Bao'an and Longgang are where a car and a planned route earn their keep.
