I had a layover of just over 24 hours in Shanghai and it was very simple to be granted a visa free tourist transit at Shanghai airport. My airline had notified the Chinese authorities in advance when I checked in - I'm not sure if this was necessary but the advice online was a little confusing so I wanted to be better safe than sorry. I had a hotel booked and a confirmed flight out of Shanghai which the Chinese immigration officials asked to see. I had booked this trip in advance and the communication and planning was excellent. No problems at all and I was greeted at the airport by my driver. The car for the day was very comfortable and there was WhatsApp communication available in English with the tour organisers at all times. I felt safe in Shanghai, despite travelling alone and knowing no Chinese! My tour guide Queena was amazing - I managed to see so much more of Shanghai than I thought possible in the time. Queena had great knowledge of the places we went to and I learned a lot. The tour seemed very flexible and efficient. Even though the weather wasn't the best, this was a day well spent and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

It was awesome! Our tour guide Snow was such a lovely woman. She took care of us and respected us for everything we wanted so see and the things we didn’t want to see. We saw a lot of Shanghai in such a short time. We can really recommend!

Had a 15 hour long layover in Shanghai, so we booked this tour to pass the time. It was a great experience. It allowed us to stretch our legs, while discovering the beautiful city of Shanghai. I would recommend getting an e-sim card that works in China. This way we were able to be in permanent contact with Alana, who gave us clear instructions about obtaining the 24 hour visa free pass in China from the airport and then meet our driver there. After that, we were taken into the city, where we met Xin, our guide. The tour was tailored to our needs, and Xin took us to see many beatiful spots in the city. We learned a lot about the history and culture of Shanghai. Great experience, highly recommend it!

I completed the layover tour of Shanghai and can't praise the company enough. I completed the tour with tour guide Alana. Her exceptional expertise brought my Shanghai tour to life! Her insightful guidance and warm demeanor made my experience truly memorable. Highly recommend her as a fantastic tour guide. Alana's exceptional guidance made our Shanghai tour unforgettable! A true gem in navigating the city's wonders. Everything was planned to perfection and car pickup arrangements seamless and always on time. Alana's exceptional taste led us to authentic Chinese gems in Shanghai. Her culinary expertise elevated our tour, making every meal a delightful cultural experience. Kudos for a fantastic and flavorful journey. Outstanding tour and great value for money. Would recommend to family and friends and repeat again if returning to Shanghai. Reference number 1484149007
