  • Excellent tour of Shanghai

    My daughter and I absolutely enjoyed our private tour of Shanghai with Peggy. She was incredibly professional and warm, knowledgeable about the history and culture of Shanghai, and her English was excellent. She was so flexible, we really needed some coffee so she modified the itinerary sequence and took us to an amazing coffee and pastry shop in the French concession. The restaurant she took us to for lunch was authentic, delicious and popular with locals. I am lacto-vegetarian and she made sure the restaurant could accommodate me. She is so knowledgeable about the culture and history about Shanghai, which made the tour of the neighborhoods and landmarks immensely enjoyable and interesting. I was keen on purchasing some teas from a non-touristy shop and she took us to a beautiful shopping area which sold teas frequented by locals. The tour was fantastic and memorable, and Peggy made it all the more special.

  • An experience I will always treasure

    This was such an amazing day! I was met by my guide, Peggy at my hotel where she discussed exactly what I wanted from the day. After that we headed out and visited the areas I wanted to see and some she suggested. She is a Shanghai local and so I learnt so much about the local way of life and customs from her. We discussed the history of Shanghai, both ancient and modern, and backed it up with experiences. This was really the highlight of my holiday! Thank you Peggy for sharing your knowledge, experience and company during a wonderful day in Shanghai!

    Jenny’s Tours is simply the best tour operator in Shanghai. My guide, Peggy, spoke impeccable English and was a very experienced and knowledgeable tour guide. She made me discover all what I was interested in and made me feel like a Shanghai resident. All of her suggestions were spot on (lunch, tea ceremony..) and she could answer all of my questions. I really highly recommend Jenny’s Shanghai Tours. Top notch!
