Maravillosa - It is a very good option to get to know the city when you have to make a long stopover. It gives you enough time to get a good idea of the city. The service is wonderful and punctual. Our guide was Anie and she was wonderful, she was our companion all day and made everything very easy for us. We took a very nice memory thanks to her of a city in such a short time.

Fantastic option for a layover in Shanghai. - This was an excellent way to spend a day long layover in Shanghai. Great communication from Sunny who made sure we knew how to find our driver and even checked we’d made it back to the airport and through customs at the end of the day. The car we were driven in was extremely comfortable and Shirley was an excellent guide. We visited a number of key attractions and Shirley brought them to life by telling us about the history and local customs. Sunny and Shirley made it easy and enjoyable for us to spend our layover in Shanghai rather than at the airport. I’d highly recommend this private tour.

Highly satisfactory experience in Shanghai - The personnel at this travel agency are highly proficient in communication. Furthermore, the team displays excellent customer service, despite the driver's limited English proficiency. The pickup service is exceptional. The vehicle was also clean and well-equipped with massage chairs. Jessica, the tour guide, is highly proficient in English and demonstrated excellent communication skills. This tour is recommended for those with additional time in Shanghai. The travel team provided comprehensive updates from the initial arrival in Shanghai until the group's safe return to their hotel or airport. Their knowledge and professionalism contributed to a highly satisfactory experience. Thank you, Sunny, Jessica, and Mr. Driver.

Amazing and comfortable 1 day Shanghai experience - I had the most amazing experience! Prior to the trip Sunny was very communicative and helpful so it was very clear where I would be picked up at the airport.
On the tour my guide Kalvin was very friendly, accomodating and cooperative; he adjusted to my needs and requests. He made sure I left seeing all the highlights of Shanghai and was full of stories and fact about the city and its history: I really got to know Shanghai in one day!
Bonus point: Kalvin knows all the great spots and angles for a good photo ;)
Thank you so much Sunny and Kalvin for a great day! It was the perfect thing for my transfer in Shanghai and everything was arranged smoothly and comfortably without need for stress or concern :)

Would highly recommend - Our tour through Shanghai with Ruby was awesome. We were collected at the airport by our driver - the car was very comfortable (with massage seats in the back - very impressive to my teenage boys) and dropped back with enough time to check in for our next flight. We visited all of the sights listed (except for the commercial section - due to the rain) and enjoyed a really good Chinese lunch. Ruby was knowledgeable and great company for the day. I’d highly recommend her and this tour experience.

Shanghai Layover Tour - We really enjoyed our tour, Annie our guide was very informative and accommodating. The pick up from the airport was slick and Annie took us to different sights in the car and we got out and she showed us places on foot. This meant we could fit lots of different sites in the day. We would highly recommend the tour to anyone who has a layover in Shanghai.
