Shanghai Surprise - We had a great time . Annie our guide showed us all the highlights of Shanghai in the short time we were there. She also has great insight in to life in the city and shared her experiences which made the trip even more memorable. Her sense of humour kept us entertained and what was especially fantastic was we tried authentic street food and visited some local non touristy area. She was flexible and tailored our trip to meet our needs . The company provides prompt pick and drop off to the airport in a luxury suv with a knowledgeable driver. This is a not to be missed tour - you won’t regret it

Layover city tour with private guide and driver - We booked a layover visit for 6 hours and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Our guide Robert was fantastic - very enthusiastic and super helpful. We were very well looked after from the outset with good communication about timings and the pickup, then with a cool limousine oasis for our travel around the city. We packed in everything we wanted to see for a quick visit but didn’t feel rushed. Thanks very much Robert, our driver and team.

- This is an awesome tour for a long layover or during a visit to or vacation in Shanghai. Guide Claire was so knowledgeable and supplied a constant stream of information over a 6 hour tour which was adjusted to suit the day and the sites I was interested in. I was picked up and delivered back to the airport in style. A truly fantastic tour I recommend Sunnyerday 100%

Best decision!! - Wonderful time with Kevin! We took advantage of our long layover in Shanghai and booked this private tour, and it was the best decision ever! Kevin was super knowledgeable about Shanghai and he was very accommodating to our needs. The team, Kevin and the driver, made it very easy to get around Shanghai in a very comfy vehicle. I would recommend this private tour to anyone as you can personalize the tour to meet your needs with a wonderful tour guide. I cannot thank Kevin enough for this great experience in Shanghai!
