This was a very good day...
Published on Feb, 2025
This was a very good day tour to get familiar with the major tourist sights of Shanghai. Our guide, Tom, was very organized and knowledgeable and I would be remiss if I did not compliment our driver as well (the traffic is crazy).

The history of the places we visited was amazing. Our tour guide Tom had an amazing memory for facts. A pity we couldn’t take in all the dates and facts. Needed a print out to go along with the many photos I took.
