Excellent Shanghai Overview Tour - Fantastic tour that was well organized and catered to interests. Would highly recommend for first time visitors to get an excellent overview of the city from the historical to the modern. The guide, Kiki, was knowledgable, friendly, and flexible on itinerary. Very nice vehicle and driver as well. Lunch was also at a very good restaurant.

Best private tour of Shanghai with Xin - This private tour is a must do while visiting Shanghai. Our English speaking tour guide, Xin was amazing and our driver was on point for a family of four. She showed us all the highlights and was very knowledgeable. She shared the history and took us to the best places for sightseeing, pictures and cultural experiences, including great local food and local shopping. The Jade Buddha Temple, garden, Shanghai Tower, French Concession, Bund and more were included.

A Shanghai Experience! - We had one day free to explore Shanghai before we started work so we booked this tour to take in the highlights. We were not disappointed. We covered a lot of ground effortlessly. Our driver ensured a comfortable ride and efficient pick ups at each location and our delightful guide Xin shared her enthusiasm and knowledge for Shanghai giving us a great experience. The price includes all entry fees, a driver on call all day and a light lunch. Thoroughly recommend.

Simply amazing! Highly recommend! - I took a one day trip to Shanghai and the guide made me fall in love with the city. My guide Mary was very friendly and very knowledgeable about the ancient history and current world affairs and spoke very good English . The tour coordinator Alana coordinated my entire trip seamlessly keeping me informed about what to expect and if i had any special requests and also checked on me to inquire how my trip was at the end of the day. Definitely recommend them to anyone looking to explore the city especially foreigners.
