Fantastic tour! - Rita was amazing! She had lots of information about Shanghai history and local knowledge. She tailored the tour to our interests and took us to a silk factory which was fascinating. I definitely recommend Rita as your guide if you are a first timer in Shanghai. We started in the Oriental Pearl museum which gave us lots of history of the city, then to the Jade Buddha temple which was so peaceful. Then we went for a delicious lunch and a wander round the old town market. Then we went to the French concession which felt like a film set with lovely old streets and shops. Then to the silk factory, and a walk down The Bund. A great day, well worth it.

First time in Shanghai - I am glad I took on this private tour on my first day in shanghai. Sunny my guide works with us to customise the tour for us. She gave good suggestions to fill and in the gap and detour to show us more streets and sights along the way. I recommend this to those who need a quick orientation . and after which , we revisited some sights we like just to spend more time. It was money well spent in my opinion as it quickens my curve of getting to know the city and enjoying it more.

Amazing tour and guide - Lily was amazing! We had no idea what we were going to experience on our day out and booking this tour from Australia we really couldn’t be sure. But, as soon as we met Lily in our hotel lobby, we were instantly at ease. She was poised, relaxed, knowledgeable, patient, fun, organised, efficient, and very easy to be with. Lily gave us an amazing experience for a full day in Shanghai and we couldn’t recommend her highly enough.

Great orientation of the city - We took this tour on our first full day in Shanghai. We were met in our hotel by Lily, who took some time to find out what we wanted to see and do. She took us to see the sights and was happy for us to wander at a leisurely pace while letting us know about the areas we visited. We wove the shopping part of the tour into the highlights, which included a productive trip to the fabric market where we had suits made (they fit very well!). We would have been lost on our own! Lily was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. We finished the tour confident to get around by ourselves and knowing the areas to return to. I would highly recommend this tour for any newcomer to Shanghai.
