Incredible and Meaningful Tour - This was an incredible tour with Lee, Jordan, and Christina. We got to see the intimate areas of the French Concession, Fuxing Park, and so much more. We learned so much about Shanghai and really really got a feel for the city. Highly recommend this on your first or second day in Shanghai!!

Who knew Shanghai trees were so beautiful - A little rain did not dampen this great morning ride and cultural exchange. Li and Christine showed me the French Concession, great little shops and an impromptu tea tasting.

Beautiful route through Shanghai lets you feel the city. - Li and Christine were great hosts for my solo tour. A little rain did not slow us down. I suppose my favorite was the impromptu tea tasting we did.

Nice way to see old Shanghai. - Nice way to explore old Shanghai. We passed old neighborhoods and modern shopping centers and received good explanations everywhere. Bicycles are fine. Despite the chaos that sometimes prevails in Chinese traffic, you do not have that feeling when you participate in the bike tour.

The perfect Shanghai snap shot. Don’t skip past this one! - This is best tour if have an airline layover or are in town visiting. It’s a very safe tour with wide cycling lanes. It really captures a snap shot of the old towns, French consession area and more. Giving you a taste to return to your favourite areas to explore further. Really knowledgeable and professional guides. Perfect mix of cycling and walking in the gardens and off the tourist trails to see some real local traditional living experiences. Thank you for a fab half day to help me experience some of the best of Shanghai. Great team X

Fun morning biking in the rain! - I enjoyed my morning with James learning about Shanghai and China and biking around the French concession. He was very charming and flexible and showed me things I certainly could not have found on my own. Very nice bike and great service!

One of the best guided tours I have ever done. - Probably one of the best guided tours I have done. Not only was Ellen so knowledgeable but great company. What a lovely way to see Shanghai and sample so much food. 10/10 and would score higher if I could. I booked this for my first day arriving in Shanghai and I felt it gave me a good intro to my trip and this beautiful city. Perfect for all levels of cycling abilities. Fantastic value for money.

No sympathy - I arrived 4 days early to participate in a guided tour of China. I had 4 days in Shanghai to do my own thing. I pre booked two tours on consecutive days before I left Australia. I had the misfortune of my baggage being delayed. In the end I had waited for 65 hours for my baggage to arrive. No fault of Viator nor mine. I arrived in Shanghai less than 24 hours before the first tour was to begin. Without a change of clothes, I was unable to participate in either of the pre booked tours. By the time the first tour was to begin I had been wearing the same clothes, a pair of shirts and a T-shirt for 48 hours. There is a no refund policy for cancellation if it is not done with at least 24 hours' notice. I was still in transit at this time not knowing what debacle lay ahead. I am out of pocket and got no sympathy from Viator. I even asked if I could change the date but somehow that was not possible.
