    This was the perfect half day tour of Shanghai. Penny was punctual, communicative, and provided great historical background and information about Shanghai. It was perfectly timed so that we were able to see the French Concession, the Bund, the Yew Garden, and the Shanghai Tower while taking a break for an authentic meal. We would recommend this tour very highly.

  • Exceptional Time!

    Penny is an exceptional tour guide, accommodating and adaptable should you wish to visit a particular site or attraction, has a good sense of humour, an extensive knowledge of Shanghai history and stories to tell, and her English is exceptionally good. Would highly recommend Melody Tours for your next visit to Shanghai.
