About Youranke

We are a local team in Shenzhen doing one thing: helping first-time visitors actually understand this city.

Shenzhen is one of the youngest major cities in China — fishing villages and farmland forty years ago, a global centre for hardware and design today. That pace is hard to convey in writing. Standing in it, with someone local explaining, is a different thing entirely.

Our tours are small groups on purpose: small enough to ask real questions, and to walk into lanes and markets rather than following a flag past them. Your guide is a local who speaks English, not someone reading a script.

Small groups

Every departure has a cap, so your guide has time for everyone.

English-speaking locals

Guides who actually live here. Ask them anything.

Guaranteed departures
