Terrific tour- choose this one. - I am a Viator user. This tour was one of the best. My guide Mary was pleasant, knowledgeable, flexible and is also a great photographer. My tour was a little bit idiosyncratic, and she was totally flexible. She knows the former French concession well and it makes the tour a delight. The technical aspects of the tour were handled very professionally as well-addresses, drop off, pick up-all great. Thank you Sunflower and Mary.

4 hours in Shanghai French Concession - Miss Mary our guide was fantastic. Her English exceptional. She took us to places we would never have found on our own, was interesting, relevant and informative. She worked out quickly what suited us. She took us for a delicious lunch at a traditional restaurant. My husband is coeliac so needed gluten free. Miss Mary sorted this out. It was no problem at all and so delicious!! Would highly recommend this tour.

Great tour of Shanghai! - Today’s walking tour of the French Concession with Miss Ester was wonderful! She is friendly, very knowledgeable and went several hours over the scheduled time for the tour. I learned so much about the architecture, Shanghai history and the local economy. Thank you very much. I would highly recommend this tour to others.

Great Way to Experience the French Concession - Our guides Sunflower and Esther (English names) picked us up promptly in our hotel lobby and arranged transportation to the French Concession area. Sunflower was bubbling with enthusiasm, and Esther was incredibly knowledgable about the history of the area-who lived in what buildings when, etc. She knew the area very well. After an extensive walk, including past the US Embassy (where Chinese guards yelled at me for taking a photo), Sunflower took us for lunch at a spot with the most delicious noodles! Great experience-highly recommend! This are of Shanghai is charming with tree-lined streets and lovely buildings.
