Top tour with best tour guide - This was one of our best guided trips ever made so by Peggy. She discussed our best options and made our day very special giving us just the right amount of information, her English was excellent and it was so easy to understand and ask questions. We could not have asked for better. A big thank you to Peggy.

Awesome - My clients were coming off of a cruise on Oceania and had a late departure out of Shanghai. They were so impressed with Jenny's tour from the ship and the fact that they dropped him off at the hotel with a fabulous last experience before heading home!

Great tour and driver - Jenny provided an excellent two-day tour with our guide, “Apple.” Communication before the tour was clear, and all my questions were answered promptly. Jenny also arranged the visa, which made everything easy.
We visited the major sites as well as the canal city, and Apple was flexible throughout, adjusting the itinerary to accommodate our preferences. I highly reccomend her.

We love Shanghai! - Troy did a great job on our tour. His English was perfect, and he was easy to understand. The full-day tour offered highlights of Shanghai. We did the tour (with a driver) on our first full day in Shanghai. It gave us enough knowledge to go back and do a few of the sites in more detail. I will use Jenny Tour's the next time I go back to China.

Well worth the day tour - Very well organised. Did a day tour with my daughter. Peggy was an excellent guide and continually engaged with my daughter in conversation discussing Shanghai. Peggy's local insights were very informative and she's also such a nice person. The driver Mr Wong knew all the tricks of where to park and wait making the day seamless.
Great value tour and I thoroughly recommend.

Great private day tour to Hangzhou Songchen and more! - We had a wonderful time with Grace leading the full day trip to hangzhou tour leaving from our Shanghai hotel and drop off at the end of the day. She is very professional and cares for us the whole time. The car arrangement, food recommendations and the tour itinerary are very well organized. We went to the West lake, the entertainment park Songchen, and the local streets. We do not feel rushed and yet we felt we have seen the key highlights in the area and also learned much more about the city and China in general. Our family of four all had a great time and we felt very comfortable and well taken care of. Thank you for providing such a great trip. We will surely recommend your company to our friends!

Informative and Interesting Shanghai Tour! - The private tour was excellent! Our.English speaking guide, Peggy, was great. She took great care of us and kept the trip interesting and full of humor. We were so impressed that we booked another trip with Jenny a few weeks later to visit Chengdu. Highly recommend Jenny’s China Tours for all your China trips!
