A great way to see the sights of Shanghai - We had a fantastic day with Chloe our guide. Despite the typhoon weather, we were able to have a good day seeing the sights and making the most of our time in Shanghai. Chloe was able to tailor the day to fit our interests and was a pleasure to spend time with. We enjoyed trying the different Shanghai speciality’s and the museum was a highlight.

If you only have one day in Shanghai, this is a great way to see the city - We did a one day tour in Shanghai. We visited the Yu Garden, which is an oasis of calm in the midst of the city, walked along the Bund, took a cruise on the Huangpu River, visited the bookstore on the 52nd floor of the Shanghai Tower, and more. It was a full day and we got to see many different aspects of the city. Our guide, Martin, was wonderful and very informative. We greatly enjoyed our time in the city.

Great experience - We saw Shanghai as part of an 11-day tour that included Nanjing, Suzhou, and Hangzhou. We saw the French quarters first. It was good, but many of the stores were closed because it was early in the morning. Arrange to go in the evening if possible. Later, we went on the Huangpu River cruise. Ryan pointed out many of the key buildings and sites that helped us decide where to go during our free time. When we returned to Shanghai at the end of our 11-day tour, we saw the Shanghai Museum and the Yu Garden. The Shanghai Museum had a lot of great exhibits, but as with many museums, there is never enough time. Ryan pointed out many interesting details in the Yu Garden that could easily have been missed. The details and explanation made the visit to the garden a lot more meaningful. Overall, we had a great time in Shanghai.
