Private tour with guide Judy plus driver was excellent from beginning with a pick up from hotel instead of us trying to get downtown ourselves and return. Very accommodating with additional request to see other sites. Judy was very knowledgeable and showed us many interesting places This our first time with a private tour guide/driver as we usually do group tours and enjoyed this tour immensely. We would definitely recommend this tour to any visitors with a limit time to visit Shanghai like we had !
Shanghai your way with tour guide Jenny.
Published on Mar, 2025
I booked this trip through Viator and can honestly say it was the best value trip I’ve ever had!! Our tour guide was Jenny and she met us at our hotel reception. Our driver followed soon after. Jenny took us to the temple of the Jade Buddha to get our trip started . She explained that visiting the temple first would ensure that the rest of our trip would be blessed and it certainly was!! We spent a while at the temple. There was plenty to see and lot’s to learn about the Bhuddist religion and the importance of Jade in China. Jenny spoke perfect English. She was very knowledgeable and was happy to answer all of our questions ( we had lots of them) From the temple we went to the Bund . Jenny pointed out all the buildings of significance and when I told her I used to work for an international bank she showed me the building that it was once in and the new building it had moved to across the river. As we had been blessed with sunny weather we had a walk along the river side before visiting the main shopping area in Shanghai where all the major stores were located . Our driver then picked us up and we went to the old city. The architecture was stunning! Jenny advised us how old the city was and we were able to marvel at how the new mixed with the old city in Shanghai. Jenny took us into a shop in the old city to look at the jade and fresh water pearls. She taught us that we should barter with the shopkeepers if we wanted to buy anything so I gave it a go and bought myself some jade earrings . I will cherish them always. Next stop was a visit to a traditional Tea House , the Yu Garden Bazaar. Jenny had been telling us about how Chinese people love to drink tea and that the many teas have different health benefits so this visit brought that to life . We tried 6 different teas and had a detailed explanation of what each one’s health giving properties were. We bought some tea to give as a gift while we were there. From the tea house we went to Yu Gardens . It was very busy but we walked around at our leisure while Jenny told us the story of the garden’s origins and pointed out all the points of interest in the gardens . Throughout the trip we never felt that we were rushed and we had ample time to take photos. We had by this time spent 6 hours with Jenny who was keen to take us anywhere else we wanted to see in her city before we ate. We were happy with what we had managed to see and decided it was time to eat. Jenny gave us a choice of whether we would like to sample fried dumplings or go for some Chinese food. We opted for the latter . The driver picked us up again and we went to a restaurant where Jenny asked us what we liked to eat and ordered a selection from the menu for us. The food was amazing !!! by this time it was 5:00pm . A full day’s sightseeing making memories , eating delicious food and having the pleasure of excellent company in the form of Jenny who started the day as our tour guide and by the end became like a friend . I highly recommend her and the trip . Who better to show you around than somebody who loves the city she lives in ? .
Fantastic!
