    The trip was very informative and entertaining at the same time. I've been living and working in the city for more than a dacade. Although knowing the area quick well, I was still impressed by the freshing information provided by Max. It was interesting to see the streets that I walk every day through different eyes. Max also did a great job in presentation. The trip was coupled with many documentary video clips that illustrating the local lifehood back in last century. Overall, the trip was very well organized and Max was very professional and caring to hit tour members. I would recommend the trip to whom want to know the cultural and historic side of the city.

    This Shanghai breakfast and French Concession tour was the highlight of our trip. We discovered incredible hidden breakfast spots, feasting on a delicious array of local foods. We loved the crispy, savory sheng jian bao, the delicate xiao long bao, and a refreshing mango dessert for a perfect sweet finish. The tour beautifully transitioned into the charming, tree-lined streets of the French Concession. A spectacular finale was a stop at a hidden rooftop offering a peaceful view over the neighborhood's treetops and historic shikumen architecture. This tour perfectly balanced authentic food, fascinating history, and a beautiful perspective of the city. An absolute must-do.
