Our private tour of Shanghai was nothing short of amazing! From start to finish, everything was perfectly arranged, making for a smooth and enjoyable experience. Our guide, Sammi, was fantastic—knowledgeable, engaging, and full of fascinating historical insights. Her explanations of Yu Garden were truly captivating, bringing the history and culture of this beautiful place to life. She is a true treasure and made the experience unforgettable. The driver was excellent, ensuring a comfortable and hassle-free journey around the city. And the food—wow! We were taken to an authentic Chinese restaurant that served incredible cuisine while thoughtfully accommodating our vegetarian request. It was a definite highlight of the day! If you're looking for a stress-free, enriching, and delicious way to explore Shanghai, this tour is a must. Highly recommended!

We had an amazing tour of Shanghai with Sammi.She made us feel comfortable with her friendly and open nature. She suggested some changes to the planned tour to suit what we wanted which worked well.The vehicle was a very high end people carrier and the driver was safe and steady - which the Didi (Uber) drivers are not. So that was great.The tour covers all the main areas. You don’t feel rushed and Sammi was great at answering questions and sharing lots more.Lunch was included and at a nice restaurant where we chose the dishes.Very happy and the tour was very much value for money. Thanks Sammi x

It was a great day with Kalvin. We were thrilled with Shanghai from the very first second. Kalvin helped us understand the city, brought us closer to Shanghai, took us to the most beautiful places, and had an answer to every question.

Ruby has been nothing but exceptional! I was greeted at my hotel on schedule with the driver and was given a schedule for our private tour. Ruby has been very informative and has shown excellent knowledge in Shanghai’s history. Thanks to Ruby, I had the best experience in terms of day tours and could not recommend highly enough

We booked this tour (Shanghai) with a guide (English speaking) and driver with Viator. Shortly after booking we received a confirmation e-mail with instructions for where to meet our guide! We met our guide, Annie, at the designated location. She was waiting for us with a placard with our name on it. Annie then summoned a driver who picked us up in a brand new sports utility car! He had waters for us and we settled into nice captain’s seats. Annie spoke perfect English and she was very easy to understand. She guided us to multiple locations. She was very conversational. At each location the driver would drop us off and after visiting the location Annie would call him and he would pick us up. Annie has been a tour guide for 20 years. She had a great sense of humor. We are experienced travelers and have done many tours with guides over the years and all over the world. Without hesitation, we would say Annie was the best tour guide we have ever had. The tour operation was great as well. I would say it was a perfect day. I give this experience a 10/10.
