Fun walking tour with knowledgeable and friendly tour guide - I had such a great time on this tour! Bill was the perfect tour guide, knowledgeable and funny, with lots of interesting facts and personal anecdotes. The tour was about 2.5hrs long but with lots of breaks to sit down. I thought it was great value for money, much less expensive than many of the other tours and just as much fun! I am a solo female traveller and felt very comfortable on it. Bill sent the details of the meeting place in advance by WhatsApp including a picture so that I knew where to go. Highly recommend this tour!

I am so glad that we took... - I am so glad that we took this tour with Bill. Bill is knowledgeable and engaging. As a native Shanghainese, he got the inside scoop. We learned a lot about Shanghai’s history and appreciate this city more now. In addition, it was a very pleasant walk in the French Concession.

Awesome tour of another side of Shanghai - We did a last minute booking of this French Concession tour with Bill because our morning tour guide did not turn up, grrr... ;( However this tour more than made up for our earlier disappointment! Bill was entertaining, informative as we spent about 2 1/2 hours navigating the lesser-known parts of Shanghai, from how the French spent their early years here and how this has influenced so many beautiful parts of this city. Without Bill's narrative we would have walked past those historical buildings without knowing the history behind it! Highly recommended to those who want to see beyond Shanghai Disneyland, and all the other touristy places! :)
