We Reach Every Corner in Shanghai
If you read our travel guide page, you will find that from the popular attractions to the off-the-beaten-path water towns, from the shopping malls to the local markets, from the center of Shanghai to the villages outside the city, you can reach every corner in the Shanghai Area.
All the highlights of Shanghai are, of course, included in our tour packages, such as the Bund, Oriental Pearl TV Tower, and Former French Concession. We can also help you go the extra mile by taking you to the local flower and bird market, cheongsam shops, museums for stamps, or wherever you are interested.
We assist you in exploring not only Shanghai but also its neighbors. Huangshan City, Suzhou, and Hangzhou are three elite neighbors of Shanghai. They are respectively 4 hours 45 minutes, 30 minutes, and 1 hour 15 minutes away from Shanghai by high-speed train. If you live in Shanghai or stay in Shanghai for over 5 days, the three neighborhoods are very good options to extend your Shanghai Tour.

Shanghai
Shanghai was the last part of our trip in China. We arrived late in the evening and our guide, Wini, waited to take us to the hotel. She was immediately very welcoming and friendly! In the next 2 days she made us appreciate the modern and ancient part of Shanghai, the beautiful ancient Chinese gardens of Souzhou and the romantic atmosphere of Tongli water village. She was very knowledgeable, professional and nice. We totally recommend visiting Shanghai with Wini!
