I have just returned from my third visit to Shanghai (in the past year) and this time I decided to take a walking tour in the French Concession, and I am very glad I did. Newman Tours was recommended to me by a friend who was very impressed by the owner Mr. Daniel Newman who was her guide during her... More

We went on a Ghost tour with this company during our stay in Shanghai. I have absolutely not ever experienced a worse tour! The guides were just fake, and if they were asked questions that did not pop up on their i pad emidiately, they just did not have a clue. The worst part was when they actually hid in... More

We took the Newman's tour of Zhujiajiao. We had a great day - our guide, Chloe, was informative, engaging and fun.

They put together a custom agenda based on my specific interests and my expectations were far exceeded. We went far off the usual tourist path, and I got to gain a real good understanding of Shanghai. Besides... More

We wanted to get historical information while touring the Forbidden City and Newman Tours was the perfect place for that. Our guide, Chris, was an expert on Chinese history - having majored in Central Asian culture as an undergraduate. His approach to the information was light hearted and thorough at the same time. He was willing to answer our numerous... More

Shanghai is such an interesting city and this tour is perfect to understand foreign influences in the city. Our tour guide Chloe was such a nice person, she is from Scotland and is nice to have an english native speaker in China, otherwise you won't understand anything to chinese tour guides. Chloe is not the typical tour guide, who just... More

Chloe hosted both of our trips. She was knowledgeable, charming and good company. Both tours lived up to expectations and we enjoyed each of them. Paul and Jan Godfrey
