China is not only famous for its historic significance and wealth of cultural relics, but also for its importance as a modern-day economic powerhouse and international player. China has become a hot spot for foreign companies to set up shop, as well as for students from all over the world to study and train. To make this opportunity possible for business-minded individuals and students alike, we have simplified the process by creating visits and on-site study programs at some of China’s most reputable organizations. We combine these with visits to historic and cultural sites to provide visitors with a well-rounded Chinese experience.

We will work with you and your budget to design a tailor-made route to get the most out of your business visit. Let us take care of the planning of meals, touring, transportation, meetings and site visits and provide your group with an informative experience to take back home.

Business Industry Visits:

Connect with similar industries in China to learn more about the daily operations of a local or foreign run company to better understand how Chinese entities operate and to learn about the potential markets. Your group will have the opportunity to participate in on-site visits, observe daily work operations and meet and interact with staff members from reputable organizations both Chinese and foreign run. You can choose to focus your visit to China on a specific industry or choose a route that will combine aspects from different industries of your choosing.

Students can get a real life out of classroom experience by observing corporations and visit factories to get an authentic feel of how businesses are run. Meet with staff members and even get an educational lecture from managerial level staffs.

Testimonials

I worked closely with Irene Zhu and her company on a very important business trip to Shanghai. She was extremely professional and helpful. She did translation of speeches and guided us through Shanghai. She is very smart and was a pleasure to interact with. She will always be my top choice when I return to Shanghai.

In June, 2010, I led a study tour with 12 MBA students who were learning about business in China. Our experience with Guideshanghai receives my highest rating. The guides were knowledgeable, professional, and responsive to all requests and inquiries. They offered useful suggestions and maintained a high standard of service in every aspect. They arranged business tours with top companies as requested and complemented these with well-chosen social activities/locales. I am already looking forward to our next tour incorporating their expertise!
