What People Say
“Having lived in China for a number of years already and visited Shanghai for work and leisure lots of times before, this was a really cool way to see a part of the city that I hadn’t seen before. Learning a bit of the history of the areas of the city, whilst trying out local food in some lesser known spots and watching everyone else go about their lives was a great experience. The guide did a great job of making sure there was a good balance between the food (which was amazing) and sharing stories of the areas we visited too.”
