    I was in town for a work trip and decided to take a day to do some sight seeing and it was the BEST decision!

    Snow was my tour guide and she made the day so wonderful! We visited Shanghai Tower, Jade Buddha Temple, Yu Yuan Gardens, Zhuhjiaojiao, and also had a wonderful traditional lunch.

    The duck was amazing, the history enlightening, and the views will never be forgotten. It rained the entire day, but Snow helped navigate the rain and still made it so much fun!

    Book Now!!! 10/10 would recommend!!

    Our guide Troy was very knowledgable and the car was very clean. The sights of Shanghai were lovely and beautiful. We saw everything we wanted to. The dumplings we had for lunch were delicious. We learned a lot about Shanghai and China. Well worth the money. Thank you

    We had a great time to Suzhou via Sunny tour from Shanghai. The tour guide was on time and did an amazing job taking us to Suzhou via the bullet train which only takes 30mins. We have learnt a lot about the history of the Suzhou water village, Tiger Hill, fantastic lunch and a nice boat ride along the river. Highly recommended if you want to do a day trip!

    It was extremely interesting to see the two different towns, enjoy the scenery and savour the local cuisine. The Watertown was nice and quaint, it supposedly looks like how China was in the past. The shops were cute, artsy and reasonably priced. The whole tour felt rushed though. Even though the advertisement indicates 10 hours, we were back at the hotel in 8. The advertised tour does not mention a minimum participant number, but as they only had our 2 person party, they informed us the night before the tour that we could cancel or pay an extra $100. As we had nothing planned and it was too late to get something else, we chose for the extra ‘cash’ payment. Our guide, Tom, spoke English exceptionally well, was very interesting and had tons of things to explain. We learned a lot! He made us feel rushed though. The lunch was very good (and way too much…) in a very authentic restaurant. We would maybe have preferred to eat in the water town, but no complaints at all.
    So, beside from the feeling rushed, and the last minute $100 charge, we really enjoyed the tour and are very pleased we choose it!

    When it comes to experiencing the vibrant energy and breathtaking beauty of Shanghai, there's no better way than embarking on a Huangpu River Night Cruise. This iconic journey offers a front-row seat to the city's dazzling skyline, where the past and present of Shanghai come alive under the glow of neon lights and starlit skies.

    The Huangpu River, often referred to as the
    "Mother River of Shanghai," divides the city into two distinct yet harmonious halves: Puxi, the historic western side with its colonial architecture and the famous Bund, and Pudong, the futuristic eastern side boasting soaring skyscrapers like the Shanghai Tower and the Oriental Pearl Tower. As the sun sets and the city lights begin to sparkle, the river becomes a mirror reflecting the soul of Shanghai.

    The night cruise lasts about an hour, offering ample time to soak in the views and capture unforgettable memories. Modern, well-equipped boats provide both indoor and outdoor seating, ensuring comfort regardless of the weather. As you glide along the river, you'll be treated to panoramic views of:
    • The Bund: A stunning stretch of historic buildings illuminated in golden hues, showcasing Shanghai's colonial past.
    • Pudong's Skyline: A futuristic marvel of towering skyscrapers, including the iconic Oriental Pearl Tower and the Shanghai World Financial Center, lit up in a mesmerizing display of colors.
    • Bridges and Waterfronts: The river is dotted with beautifully lit bridges, such as the Nanpu Bridge and Yangpu Bridge, adding to the visual spectacle.

    Amazing time!! I had the best time with Queena, we explored the bund, took pictures on the river tour and had many laughs. She is very smart and full of information about history, food and Shanghai. I would recommend to anyone looking for a great night out.

    Highly recommend the private tour with Jenny’s in Shanghai. I arranged the tour for our family reunion with my parents and both mine and my bro’s family with college age kids. Although my brother and I are both native Shanghainese, considering that it was the first time for the kids to go to Shanghai (the last time they went back, they were still 👶) I decided to book a tour so that the tour guide could introduce Shanghai's history and culture professionally. I searched online and asked friends a few months in advance, and most tour providers only offered a cursory tour. I asked for a brief introduction to the history of the buildings on the Bund, and two well-preserved buildings that we may get in for a tour. Several tour providers from Trip Advisor and Viator 5🌟 all said no. Finally, I found Jenny’s, communicated my requirements through email and WeChat, and received a reply quickly, which could meet our needs👍 The weeks before the tour, I had to communicate and adjust the specific itinerary with Jenny several times, and the replies were very timely, and the suggestions were professional and reasonable. On the day of the tour, the tour guide Grace was warm and thoughtful, and the itinerary and explanations were adjusted at any time to suit the interests and understanding of the kids, keeping them engaged. The arrangement was also considerate of my parents' age, and each activity allowed them to have a proper rest. During the one-day tour, we visited the activities we had arranged in advance, and there were also small surprises 😃 We went to some old sites preserved in old Shanghai, which we didn't know about even for us growing up in Shanghai. After a full day of fun, the family, young and old, were all very satisfied 👍 Jenny’s has services in many tourist cities in China. My dad said he would recommend to his friends when organizing a tour next time. We will also use Jenny’s again when we need a tour next time we return to China 😃

    Excellent tour with Tom. Very knowledgeable. Just the right amount of commentary then you get some time to explore each location before moving to the next place. Quite a bit of driving between locations which is ok because you get to look at the city. A fair amount of walking so wear good shoes and dress for the season. Very hot and humid in September. Lunch was great. Nothing too scary for a westerner.
    We started at 8am and was back at hotel around 3.30pm but we were only a group of 3 so larger groups may take a little longer.
    Silk ‘factory’ at the end is a little bit of a hard sell but you don’t need to buy anything. Don’t feel obligated !
    Fantastic clean and safe city.

    Our guide was punctual and very knowledgeable. She was also very flexible with us, as we wanted to make many unscheduled stops to check out the food and souvenirs. Thanks

    This shopping experience was the best part of my trip to Shanghai. Not knowing the city well enough to go off on my own I booked this shopping day with Sunny and it was so worth it. I highly recommend this shopping experience! Thank you Sunny and I hope to see you on my next trip to Shanghai ❤️😘
