This was an amazing tour. Our tour guide Annie was very knowledgeable and sweet. Loved every minute of it. The lunch was delicious. Annie also took us to a shopping plaza and to a super market because we needed to buy stuff. I would definitely recommend this tour company and for sure take Annie as your tour guide. I will give her 5 ⭐️ out of 5 ⭐️

Thanks to our guide Annie, we had a wonderful and informative sightseeing in downtown Shanghai. We went to a high viewpoint in one of the many high buildings, the beautiful Yu garden, an interesting Temple experience , traditional Chinese lunch, walking around the British area, Nan Jing shopping street, the french concession area and finished the tour by walking the Bund when the impressive lights on the buildings changes the scenery to an unbelievable view. Thanks to Annies great knowledge she was able to answer all our question and thanks for guiding us a wonderful day in Shanghai :-)

First time visiting Shanghai, we had a wonderful experience! Our guide Annie is very friendly and thoughtful about the itinerary, and her knowledge of the history of Shanghai helped us to appreciate more of the places we visited. Among the modern skyscrapers, our visit of Yu Yuan and the Jade Buddah felt more special. We are really impressed with the contrast and harmony between the modern and ancient aspects of Shanghai.

In May my bosses traveled to Shanghai for business, for me the service and communication was exceptional! Probably on the next trip we will look to do an activity, unfortunately the schedule did not allow the tour to take place, but we were extremely pleased with all the help That sunny offered us many things that had nothing to do with the tour. Thank you very much, I highly recommend them.
