What are people saying about Shanghai

Lucinda_L, Oct 2026

Exceptional Tour in Shanghai!

The tour was incredible! We started at 9AM and Snow picked us up from our hotel. She showed us the Shanghai Tower and the Bund, sharing with us the details of every building and the history of it. We went to the Yu Garden and explored around the park. She took us to a local lunch place where we shared a family style Shanghainese cuisine. After lunch, we went to the Water Town, took a boat ride, and walked alongside the beautiful canal. Snow recommended that we see the ERA show which was so exciting to watch! She dropped us off at the show and escorted us inside. The tour ended at around 6:30pm. I'd recommend Snow to everyone! She was so considerate, kind, and thoughtful! She answered all of our questions about the history of Shanghai as well as all of our cultural and lifestyle questions! I've never had a tour guide who was so accommodating and caring of the group!

Exact the amount of information you would like to get, always flexible and smart! We opted for the Old Town with Yu Garden - both super nice , the French Concession and the Bund with a bit of Nanjing Street. Old Shanghai is also interesting!
