We managed to travel key hi-light spot in one day e.g zhujiajao, the bund, mansion street, the Jade buddha temple , pearl tower, huahuai road ans dinenr at xintiandi All managed with time efficient. After the impressive timely and nice service , we bought more private tour service for beijing mutianfa greatwall ans summer palace tour too.

Outstanding experience - From planning phase to the actual tour, everything was well executed and efficient. I had several questions prior to the tour as I was organizing for a group of 8 people and Jenny was very swift and accommodating with her responses. The actual tour was conducted by Nora- she was outstanding and was able to attend to the varying queries and questions from our group of 8. She was also able to accommodate to our requests effectively as we made changes to our plans during the tour. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend this tour.

5 stars for Jennys - It was a perfect tour with Troy as our tour guide. He told us a lot about the country and its people. We were a group of 10 people and therefore flexible. From the beginning of the planning with Jenny to the tour, everything went to our complete satisfaction. Thank you very much and continued success.

Two great days in Shanghai - It was a very nice private trip with Mr. Hong, we were traveling by car, saw and heard a lot, the tour guide responded to all our wishes and looked after us very well and also served us a very tasty lunch. We can only recommend the Jenny agency

Wonderful experience - This was by far the best tour we have been on! We are from the US but my husband and I have traveled to Europe, Turkey, Greece, Canada, Mexico. This was our first trip to China. We were so blessed to have Apple as our guide. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable regarding historical sites around Shanghai, she is sweet, personable and FUNNY!!!! Don't hesitate booking this tour or look at any others offered. U will not be disappointed.

Fantastic Day with an Excellent Guide. - Peggy was an amazing guide - knowledgeable, experienced, fun, and excellent English skills. When she learned that I'd already visited Yu Gardens, the Bund, etc., she pivoted on a dime and designed a totally different itinerary. We went to the Jade Buddha Temple, French Concession, Lunch at a dumpling house (where I learned how to eat dumplings properly), Tea Ceremony and so much more. An incredible day with an incredible guide. I highly recommend this tour and suggest you ask for Peggy.

Two beautiful days in Shanghai - We had a really great and informative day with all the highlights imaginable. Our guide spoke very good English and showed us around the city really well. The driver also drove us well and safely. He was always there quickly to pick us up again. The whole organization was well planned. The next day we were in Watertown with the same driver and guide, which is also recommended. We say thank you for two great days!
