Unique tour experience in Shanghai - Fantastic morning bike tour through Shanghai with Charlie in late March.
Perfect mix of interesting stops and moving through the city at a leisurely pace.
Charlie was an attentive and knowledgeable guide, the bikes were easy to handle.
We very much enjoyed the delicious lamb skewers from the small food stall at the end :-)

The perfect guide! - Since it was the quiet season right before the new year, we essentially had a private tour of the best parts of Shanghai! Our tour guide Charlie was absolutely wonderful! She gave us tons of insightful info about the Buddhist temple we visited and about the history of Shanghai’s architecture. Charlie even customized our day and took us to see the shops by Yu Garden, which was the highlight of the day for sure! Throughout the day, we stopped for bao, scallion pancakes, soup dumplings, Shanghai’s special fried dumplings, and spicy Xinjiang lamb skewers. Incredible day! The perfect start to our trip! 10/10 recommend!

The best tour of Shanghai!! - Charlie was a fantastic tour guide! I cannot recommend this tour enough! We biked, ate, and learnt so much about Shanghai. She was so kind to to ensure we got to have a tour that was specific to what we wanted to see and what we wanted to eat/drink, it was truly exactly what we wanted to do on our first day in Shanghai! Such a great start to the trip and we knocked out so many highlights of the city :) make sure you do this while you’re in Shanghai, you will not regret it!!

Perfect mixture of the old and the new - Our local guide Charlie drove us easely and safely through some of the old and new parts of the city. It's a perfect tour to see and learn more about Shanghai in just a couple of hours. If you want to have more background information about the history, cultural, reglions and development of Shanghai this tour is highly recommended.

A must do on your trip to Shanghai - We did a Shanghai bike tour last week and it was absolutely outstanding—truly one of the highlights of our entire trip. Our guide, Charlie, was exceptional. Their passion for Shanghai was contagious, and it made every stop along the way come alive.
Charlie shared rich local perspectives, personal stories, and deep knowledge of the city’s history that you simply can’t get from a guidebook. We loved hearing firsthand insights while exploring the neighborhoods on two wheels. The ride itself was fun, safe, and such an energizing way to experience the city.
If you’re visiting Shanghai, don’t miss this tour. It’s the perfect blend of culture, discovery, and genuine connection. Highly recommend!

Our cycling tour of... - Our cycling tour of Shanghai with Mr Q was fantastic! He’s knowledgeable, friendly, and full of great information. We explored hidden lanes, saw iconic sights, and stopped for some of the best Xiaolongbao we’ve had - a real highlight! The route was well planned, the bikes were great, and we always felt safe and relaxed.
If you want to see Shanghai in a fun and authentic way, don’t miss this tour. Thanks, Mr Q, for a great day! 🚴♂️🥟
