Reviews: French Concession Walking and Coffee Tour (Tianzifang, Sinan Mansion, Alleys, French Park)
Guest User2025-10-05
A great way to explore the French Concession in a small group. Our tour guide, Rachel, was super knowledgeable about the area and Shanghai in general, and she even pointed us in the direction of one of our new favourite restaurants for lunch.★

Reviews: Shanghai Private French Concession Tour: Alley to Mansion (Xintiandi, Tianzifang, WuKang)
Guest User2025-05-13
A truly wonderful travel experience! It was my first time in Shanghai, and the French Concession was my top choice. My guide Laura, was warm, friendly, and shared many fascinating stories about China. The whole tour had a very smooth pace — we walked, had a coffee break, and even tried some hands-on activities. For example, we made a lacquer fan in a local studio, which was such a fun and unique experience! I highly recommend this tour!★

Reviews: The Real Shanghai: Classic Icons Meet Hidden Gems (Bund/Yu Garden/TianZiFang/French Quar.)
Guest User2025-08-08
I just want to say, wow! I spent a lot of time comparing the tours in Shanghai online. After a really long research this tour really stands out from the rest. As an experienced traveler, I always look for a true local experience. My guide Laura was super knowledgeable and showed me a lot of the places where I saw very few other tourists. The tour balanced it very well with must-see attractions like the Yu Garden. Although there were a lot of people in the garden, Laura still managed to let me learn something new. And my favorite part is the local market for lunch. Laura took me to a local market and I was in queue with locals for some really delicious local food. Highly recommend if you are looking for a cultural tour.★
