Shanghai, the largest city in China, is unlike any other in the world. The gateway to China promises a land of history, prosperity and mystery.
Your guided day tour of Shanghai starts as your tour guide meets you at the lobby of your hotel at the appointed time. After a warm greeting, start your journey from the Shanghai Museum. The museum, which houses a fantastic collection of ancient Chinese art, is a great introduction to Chinese heritage. Later, your guide will accompany you to the 400-year old Yu Garden.
Afterwards, leave the serenity of the garden and head to the bustling streets of Shanghai. Take a leisurely walk through the pedestrian Yuyuan market. Lunch is not included in this tour, but your guide will be happy to offer you some suggested restaurants.
You haven’t been to Shanghai, if you haven’t been to the Bund, people say. The Bund is a mile-long stretch of waterfront promenade along the Huangpu River and a reminder of China’s concession era. The stretch, with its colonial architecture and modern skyscrapers is a living museum presenting the transformation of the city. Enjoy the spectacular Shanghai skyline with an hour-long Huangpu River cruise.
Finally, visit the prosperous Nanjing Road to fully experience the city's prosperity and jolly atmosphere. At the end of the tour, your guide will escort you back to your hotel.
The French Concession was where the Good Life was to be found, along with the lovely old villas and modern apartment houses of those who lived it. We will focus on the life transitions that took place here, visit Xintiandi - site of the First Conference of the Communist Party, the French Park, Premier Zhou Enlai's Former Residence, lilongs, apartments and villas from 1915 through 1930s that were home to both local Shanghainese and to many expatriate Shanghailanders.
