Amazing experience to start our vacation around China Tour Review

Great experience in Shanghai, discovering it at our own pace. Our guide, Winni, was great, easily adapted to our needs and suggestions. She quickly undestood our taste for places to eat/drink/experiment and she provided awesome suggestions and helped with the reservations or with certain shops visits to facilitate acquisitions. Apart from the bund area, which is amazing, the water village closeby was a big highlight that we really loved. And being on a week day was great as there were no crowds at all. Another aspect we loved was her english language skills and the synchronisation with the driver, always on point and ready to pick us up when we finished one activity (like getting out of a place and in seconds the car arrives). The car was VIP, a six seater from Mercedes so really comfortable all around.

Shanghai: Highly recommend!!! (especially Winni!!) Tour Review

My dad and I stayed for four nights in Shanghai, and Winni was our tour guide. We would highly recommend her for anyone who is visiting Shanghai. Not only did she carry herself with a sense of style, but she made our trip stylish as well! Her recommendations for restaurants and rooftop bars were excellent, and the photos she helped us take were unique, but very creative (I would definitely show them to my friends and post them online; she was such a good photographer). I had sent a list of things that I wanted to see in Shanghai, and she managed to weave all of them into our three days in Shanghai without making the itinerary feel too full. Winni helped us see many different districts of Shanghai, and made great recommendations for clothes and souvenirs (things that I had wanted to get) that I could bring back. She was also an excellent conversationalist and kept our mood lively and engaged. She was quite knowledgeable about the history of China as a whole, and tied it into the culture of Shanghai. She also picked great restaurants. We highly recommend Winni for anyone who wants to have a high-class, stylish, informative, and relaxing experience in Shanghai. Thank you Winni!

Short and Sweet Shanghai Tour Review

Simply amazing was our stay in Shanghai .. it was last leg of our 16 day journey through China . And thanks to our guide William who was so flexible and happy to work around the changes so that we can fit in shopping and sigh seeing both in our such a short stay . Visit to Tongli - the ancient Water town was the highlight of our whole journey .. it was one of the most beautiful places we have ever been to .
