One of my most favorite days!
I loved my tour with Lynn. Doing this tour with her was like exploring on foot with a good friend. Lynn was so informative and accommodating. Seeing the old Shanghai was pretty special and I loved all the food we tasted along the way. Thank you so much! I was in Shanghai on business and I would highly recommend this tour, I'd love to do it again with my husband and kids.
Best tour ever!
This was such an amazing tour. Our guide was really lovely, spoke good English, was knowledgeable about the area, and kept it at our pace. First piece of advice, start hungry, and by the end of the day you will be full. Highlight was sitting on a little non-tourist street having breakfast with the locals. The twisted bread and the soup dumpling are just to die for! The pecking duck and the peanut noodles were also AMAZING!
