    The food tasting was varied even though my partner has an allergy to crustacea, Annie managed to let us taste different Chinese delicious food ! We walked around and enjoyed feeling included in the Shanghai's life. Then ended up the tour by a wonderful ride on the boat around the bund with thoses beautiful lights and massive buildings.
    This experience is totally worth it ! Thank you Annie and Sunny for your professionalism and kindness.

    Very nice and knowledgeable guide. Was interesting to walk with her through old town, she explained its history. Pleasure to chat with her, she also gave hints what else to do during my stay. Tea Zeremonie have an impression what it is and background about the different tea varieties and how they taste.

    We absolutely loved this tour! It was the first thing we did in Shanghai and was the perfect introduction to different regional foods in China. Our guide, Paul, was chatty, informative and personable. He navigated restaurants and food stalls with ease, all of which were authentic and unassuming places which we wouldn't have found or tried by ourselves (especially given that we aren't mandarin speakers). All the food was outstanding - we especially loved the Cantonese and Szechuan restaurants. We couldn't recommend this tour enough. Not only that, but Paul offered so many personal recommendations for the rest of our trip from his experience having lived in Shanghai for a number of years and it felt like having a friend in the city (Gabi loved the jianbing stall!!). He also happily answered our thousands of questions about life in Shanghai and China more broadly. We also found the recommendations in the welcome pack super helpful. After our experience on this tour, we are going to go on the UnTour Beijing breakfast tour later in our trip. Thanks so much, Paul!

    We had a great experience with Alana. Once we arrived in Qibao, we first visited the main shopping street, full of traditional houses, and then started our tour with delicious dumplings. We then wandered through a long street food area where Alana made some special recommendations and we were also able to pick out a few things we were interested in. Everything was so tasty and new, really great. Then we visited a local temple, had another great lunch and finished our tour at a nice tea house to relax after the walk. It's a great tour to learn about Chinese culture and food.

    What an amazing tour! Christina, our guide, was friendly and knowledgable. A real foodie, she guided us round some excellent food places. We had scallion pancakes, dumplings, noodles and more. Brilliant!

    I thoroughly enjoyed this awesome tour not just for the scrumptious Chinese delicacies we got to sample, but also for the cultural information shared by our personable tour guides, Patrick and Xiaoyan. After the tour, they also sent us a list of the shops we visited and the food the tried so we can go back on our own if we particularly liked something.

    A fantastic tour of Shanghai’s food scene with a wonderful guide. While getting to try some amazing food I loved but would never try on my own (I won’t ruin the surprise), I really enjoyed the company and conversation. Libby knows so much about Shanghai’s food scene and her warmth and passion shines through. Highly recommended!
