Excellent half day tour of Shanghai! - 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.

Best guide in Shanghai - Wonderful experience of Shanghai. Kelly is lovely and super knowledgeable. The best guide you can ask for. The tour is fully flexible. She adapted the visit times according to my interests.

Great afternoon in Shanghai! - Sophie was great. We walked through Yu Garden, a quick stop at the Bund and a trip to the top of Shanghai Tower. Sophie is very knowledgeable about the area, the buildings, the history I had a super trip. And she assisted with setting up my ride to the airport. 1000% would recommend.

A quick yet fruitful stay in Shanghai - "I had an amazing experience, all thanks to Cassey. Though only a morning slot was available, which meant an early start, it turned out to be an incredibly rewarding experience. Cassey’s extensive knowledge of all the places we visited was truly impressive. She was not only well-informed but also made the entire day enjoyable with her friendly and approachable demeanor. She was extremely helpful and flexible, adjusting plans effortlessly to ensure we got the most out of the experience. Her professionalism, combined with a genuine passion for what she does, made the day unforgettable. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and personable guide."
