Lisa is an elite tour guide. If you are going to Shanghai, you must secure her as your guide.

Published on Jan, 2025

I have been all over the world and had many guides during these travels. Lisa is an elite guide. We contracted with her for a 4-day tour of Shanghai highlights, water villages (Zhujiajiao and Xitang), great food and nightlife. She also linked us to Beijing to visit the Great Wall. Lisa was simply fantastic. She is very knowledgeable, funny, charming, and insightful, and she tailored our tour to our specific interests in creative ways. She took us to private gardens, buddhist temples and on boat rides, dazzled us with the history and culture of each area, and slipped us into back-alleys and unique food experiences (dumplings, noodles, snails and smoking bananas). She arranged complete transportation around the Shanghai area and to and from both airports. She is multilingual, including excellent English, and she and my son, who knows some Mandarin, had fun conversing with shop and restaurant owners, and dealing with mothers and grandmothers in the People's Park, who tried to hook up my son with their daughters and granddaughters (this was exactly as funny as it sounds). If you are going to Shanghai, or the surrounding area, you have to have Lisa as your guide. You will have the best experience possible.

We explored parts of Shangai; the tea ceremony, boat trip and the private garderns was the highlights of the tour.

Published on Mar, 2024

It was an amazing unforgettable experience. Our tourguide, Julie was thoughtful, experienced, kind and made sure we enjoyed each step of the way. She was extreamly helpful and looked after us while providing an unforgetable experience. We would defenitly recommend her to anyone. Thank you for the amazing trip, and thank you for helping us to create new memories.

One of the best highlights of my trip

Published on Oct, 2023

I was in Shanghai for Mid-Autumn. Jenny warned me that traffic in and out of town will be heavier than usual. In discussion, she made it possible to start the tour a little earlier to minimize the time on the road. My guide, Ella was wonderful. Because this was a private tour, she was very flexible with the itinerary and allowed me to slowly meandered through the alleyways of Zhujiajiao and ask 1001 questions about things I have never seen before. Upon my request we even stopped to try a tang hulu (candied hawthorn on a stick.... just like the ones on costume dramas.) I was surprised that one of my favorite parts was touring the historical home. Unlike Yu Garden, in Shanghai, the house was full of beautiful antiques and I can view them up close. The garden and pond wasn't as big as Yu Garden, but it was way better maintained. The place felt more like walking though a lovely home than going through a museum. Ella was very accommodating to my dietary restrictions. I got to taste local specialties, like pearl clams with tofu and braised pork belly bound in bamboo leaves, while looking over one of the canals. This tour was definitely one of the highlights while visiting Shanghai.

Excellent Tour Guide

Published on Nov, 2019

I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Shanghai. Lisa was a brilliant tour guide and took me all around the city. She was very friendly, very helpful and very knowledgeable. I am a wheelchair user and Lisa made sure that everything was accessible for me. The Bund, the Old Town and People's Park were my favourite. Highly recommend this tour and would love to return to the city some day.

Worth Every Penny - Lisa Is a Wonderful Tour Guide

Published on Sep, 2019

Lisa sent me a text within 30 minutes of booking to make sure we were in contact. She arrived on time with a very nice car and driver. Her English was excellent and she was extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of Chinese history and culture. We saw some fabulous places many of which you might not get on a regular tour. Lisa's cheerful disposition made my wife and I feel we were with a dear friend showing us around this wonderful city. 5 stars are too few - we had a wonderfully and would highly recommend.
