Guangdong, China
Shenzhen
The city most of our guests land in first, and the hardest of the three to navigate without local apps and Mandarin.
Shenzhen moves fast and runs almost entirely through a phone. Without a working WeChat Pay or Alipay wallet, a lot of shops and restaurants simply cannot take your money. The first thing we usually sort out is not an itinerary at all — it is the wallet, the SIM, and how to call a car.
For buyers, Huaqiangbei is the reason to come: electronics, components and accessories at a scale that is difficult to picture until you stand in it. We come along for the negotiating, check that the specification you are quoted is the one you leave with, and help arrange shipping.
For families, Shenzhen is a comfortable place to spend the first days: parks, the waterfront, and dinners that do not require anyone to be brave in Mandarin. For parents weighing up universities, several campuses here can be seen in a single day.
