We had the most amazing day with Annie in Shanghai. She organized a super great tour, was very helpful with pictures and showed us everything we wanted to see! She knew especially a lot about the temple and we learned a lot today! We highly recommend to specifically ask for Annie if you want to get much information about Shanghai’s history and some secret food tips! The driver had a super comfortable, clean and new car and he was always on point, picked us up very fast and drove very safely. 10/10 all in all!!!

Even though was a rainy day, it did not affect this great experience, we had fun. Shanghai is fun to visit, and I wish I could spend more time exploring. So after this tour, I would say go back to the place you visited but at night and spend more time in the place that you like. Feifei, our beautiful tour guide was the most engaging, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and patient guide we have ever had. Not only did she have amazing recommendations, she had a genuine interest in us and a clear passion for the locations and history. She is a priceless person and the ultimate guide.

Had a fantastic day with our guide Freya. She and our driver took great care of us as we packed in as many sights of Shanghai as we could in a day. Freya customised the trip to our needs as we went and shared all her knowledge on this amazing city. Lunch was fantastic as well with dishes chosen with Freya's guidance at a local restaurant and everything was very good. Hight reccomend this tour!

Ruby was an excellent tour guide. She was knowledgeable, kind, and fun. Ruby showed the highlights of the city all while being an excellent conversationalist. As a solo business traveler, this is a great way to experience the city.
