Shanghai then looked different, more interesting! I didn't want our 4 hour tour to end!... More

We thought that this would be an awesome experience, but it exceeded our expectations. Max the guide was very informative, obliging and we at no time felt unsafe in the Shanghai traffic. Not so much in the taxis. A very realistic view of Shanghai, the highs and the lows of the city. We would highly recommend this experience. Dave and... More

Hi Susan, Max is doing a victory dance in the office right now and will be very annoying at giving us driving advice for the next two weeks thanks to your nice review. I hope we'll have the chance of seeing you on another one of our tours or expeditions in the future. More

We took the two hour tour which was really only just long enough. Thoroughly enjoyed touring through the older parts of Shanghai. Tour guide Shane was very informative and accommodating. Would definitely recommend this to other travellers.

Hi Sue, Thank you for taking the time to write us up! The old town's surely one of the lesser known - et collect - parts of Shanghai. See you on one of our expeditions to see some more of that real China maybe? More

This was the best tour ever! I am a regular visitor of Shanghai and I love this city. Even though I have extensively explored the city on my own many times before, this tour was absolutely great. My guide Maxim knew every alley and has given me so much information. I totally recommend this tour.
