Best tour ever! - I just have to say that the whole experience with Nora (our guide from Jennie's Shanghai Tours) was really exceptional! I think we never had such a good, friendly and experienced guide like her. She is so professional, friendly and intelligent. She made our stay unique! When we had a question she could answer it, when we had a special wish she could make it happen. In all points only the best!! Also the driver was fantastic. Friendly, attentive and always in time!! Thank you so much for organizing all so well!! We will let all our friends who visit Shanghai know what a wonderful time we had with your tour!

The best city tour I have ever experienced! - This was the best guided tour I have ever been on! It was a private tour of the amazing city of Shanghai curated by our wonderful guide Peggy! She was born and raised in Shanghai and knew all the best places to take us. For example, the bund, the financial district, Yu garden, and the jade Buddha temple. Peggy was very knowledgeable, spoke perfect English, and keeps a great pace all day with the tour. I would HIGHLY recommend taking this tour of Shanghai if you are considering it and ask for Peggy!

Will recommend Troy as your guide! - I highly recommend Troy (Xiao Zhang) as a guide in Shanghai! He planned an amazing itinerary that made my in-laws’ first visit to Shanghai truly memorable. We engaged Troy to follow our in laws for 4 full days and they were extremely happy! Troy is very knowledgeable and engaging, sharing fascinating stories throughout the tour. The food spots he introduced us to were fantastic – delicious with generous portions. I absolutely loved being here in Shanghai. If you're looking for a guide, Troy is a great choice. He speaks both English and Mandarin, which was perfect for my in-laws who only understand Mandarin. A wonderful experience overall! 我强烈推荐 Troy 作为上海的导游!他精心规划了行程,让我家人第一次来上海就留下了深刻的印象。Troy 非常博学、幽默,整个旅程他都分享了许多有趣的故事。他带我们尝试的美食非常美味,分量很大。我非常喜欢在上海的时光。如果你需要一位导游,Troy 是一个很好的选择。他会说英语和普通话,这对只懂普通话的我家人来说非常方便。整体体验非常棒!

Great tour - This was a great tour. The tour guide, Grace, was excellent. If you are in Shanghai, we would highly recommend this tour, and Grace. She worked with us to prioritize what we wanted to do with the 8 hours of allotted time.

A wonderful day! - My daughter and I had a wonderful day in Shanghai with Peggy and our driver. Peggy was a delight full of knowledge and great company. Also they both went above and beyond going back to the place we had lunch after hours? To retrieve my daughters phone which she had left behind.

Excellent tour of Shanghai, with an Exceptional guide. - This is probably the best city tour I have taken in a long while. I am a frequent traveller and like to see cities with a guide. The tour included a private guide, private car with driver, lunch and entrance fees. I cannot recommend Nora, our guide, enough. She was exceptional. Her English, knowledge of Shanghai, etiquette and delivery of the tour were all perfect. This was one of two tours we took with Jennys tours, the other one being a half day tour to Zhujiaojiao- water town. Jennys planning for both the tours was excellent. The tours were good value for money, because of the quality of guide, car, driver and planning. The car was a tesla, absolutely clean. Thank you Nora, and Jenny. Will always remember this visit to Shanghai fondly.
