Private tour with guide Judy plus driver was excellent from beginning with a pick up from hotel instead of us trying to get downtown ourselves and return. Very accommodating with additional request to see other sites. Judy was very knowledgeable and showed us many interesting places This our first time with a private tour guide/driver as we usually do group tours and enjoyed this tour immensely. We would definitely recommend this tour to any visitors with a limit time to visit Shanghai like we had !

Fantastic tour that was well organized and catered to interests. Would highly recommend for first time visitors to get an excellent overview of the city from the historical to the modern. The guide, Kiki, was knowledgable, friendly, and flexible on itinerary. Very nice vehicle and driver as well. Lunch was also at a very good restaurant.

My guide Judy was fantastic: very well informed and fun. She took me around the city taking in several landmarks. The Bund, the French Concession, the Yuyuan Garden, the Jade Buddha Temple, Tianzifang and more. A very worthwhile tour and a day well spent.

This private tour is a must do while visiting Shanghai. Our English speaking tour guide, Xin was amazing and our driver was on point for a family of four. She showed us all the highlights and was very knowledgeable. She shared the history and took us to the best places for sightseeing, pictures and cultural experiences, including great local food and local shopping. The Jade Buddha Temple, garden, Shanghai Tower, French Concession, Bund and more were included.

We had one day free to explore Shanghai before we started work so we booked this tour to take in the highlights. We were not disappointed. We covered a lot of ground effortlessly. Our driver ensured a comfortable ride and efficient pick ups at each location and our delightful guide Xin shared her enthusiasm and knowledge for Shanghai giving us a great experience. The price includes all entry fees, a driver on call all day and a light lunch. Thoroughly recommend.
