My best friend and I were blessed to have Ms. Penny as our guide. From start to finish she asked me about my tour preferences and what I was most interested in. She also helped me at the markets, suggested local eateries, and was extremely informative on the history of China 🇨🇳 and Shanghai. I will be forever grateful for you Penny, and consider you a lifelong friend. I hope to see you again, many blessings your way. 💖

The tour with Penny, our guide, was amazing! She showed up a few minutes' early at our designated meeting spot near our hotel and took us on a 4-hour+ walking & taxi tour of the Yu Gardens and the Bund area. We spent a lot more time at the Yu Gardens, exploring everything that it had to offer including sampling the delirious Xiao Long Bao (soup dumplings). Penny was a walking encyclopedia, giving us facts about China, the Gardens and Chinese culture in general. She was super patient, allowing us to meander at our own pace, and explaining everything around wherever we were. This tour a a definite "must" if you have a limited time in Shanghai and want to see specific things. It is a custom-designed tour, so read up a bit about Shanghai so that you can decide where you want Penny to take you. If we had more time, we would have hired her again to see the other parts of Shanghai we missed. 5 stars for thsi one!

We had an excellent tour with Penny from Shanghai Melody. Penny was very knowledgeable about the history of Shanghai and was able to provide a good overview within the few hours of our tour. We were able to get a better perspective of Shanghai and indirectly the Chinese culture through snippets shared by Penny. We will definitely recommend this tour as an excellent introduction to Shanghai.

Excellent tour made special by the historical information supplied by our tour guide Penny. We enjoyed a boat trip seeing the spectacular light display illuminate the old and new sights of Shanghai and walked around Yu Gardens trying some of the local cuisine while learning of the history of the city. We chose to have our tour start at 18.30 but would recommend an earlier start to enjoy some of the sights in daylight. Overall a very good experience.

I had a 9 hour layover in Shanghai, and decided to do a day trip to see as much of the city as I could. My guide Sophie Lee was great! I asked to see what the locals do on a Sunday. Sophie took me to various parks where the locals dance, Tai Chi, gather for gossip, and even match making. Of course I got to see the Shanghai Tower and checked out the view from the second tallest building in the world. I had a great time and look forward to visiting Shanghai again, but for more than just a day.
