Dave Cunningham, Ireland, January 2011

My guide was Annie and, really, I couldn't have hoped for a nicer tour guide. She led me to all the important sights and gave clear and concise information on those sights. She was flexible on things and was easily able to make adjustments to the schedule as the day progressed. I would not hesitate in recommending a private tour with Shanghai Lander and particularly with Annie to anyone visiting Shanghai in the future.
- Ian S. | Canada | May 12 2013
The tour with Ray went very well. We throughly enjoyed our selves. It gave us a good overview of the areas we visted. My favorites were the Yuang Gardens and the Bund.
- Trevor M. | United States | May 09 2013
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller David N. Dear Jean, Thank you for the wonderful two days passed together, it was really interesting discovering this beautiful city full of charming monuments together with you.
- David N. | Italy | May 08 2013
Jimmy from Shanghai Lander was simply terrific. Jimmy was waiting at the ship port right up front, gathered up our luggage immediately, got us settled with water and smiles, and gave us a lovely 4 hour journey to Shanghai with a great driver. This was our second time in Shanghai, but we did not want to waste any of our time waiting in an airport. This tour was perfect. My husband loves photography, so Jimmy took us to places that really kept my husband happy. At the end of a wonderful 4 hours, Jimmy and the great driver took us to the airport, Jimmy again getting all our luggage together, and taking us right to the United counter. What a wonderful way to end this cruise. I would recommend Jimmy very highly.

I am writing to tell you how much we enjoyed our two days with Lina. She was knowledgeable about every site we visited and she took great care to make sure we were comfortable.
- Andrew G. | Apr 25 2013
There were three of us and we all truly enjoyed our tour. This was my second trip to this city and one of us lives here for 3 years now. We were very comfortable and happy with our guide Shine. He was very kind and patient with us. One of the places that we requested to see was a local fish market which was very fascinating and unique. Also, while visiting Qibao, Shine was very informative about local foods and snacks, which he encouraged us to try. Also, the driver that was with us an entire day was very nice. Thank you Shanghai Lander and Shine for putting together such an interesting tour.
- Anna J. | USA | Apr 10 2013
I have to say that Lina was absolutely wonderful; more of a friend than a guide. Highly knowledgeable, very personable and great fun. My wife and I had a truly wonderful day with Lina, and really got the “feel” of this great city. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lina without reservation. Thanks so much for making this possible!
- Jeremy C. | United Kingdom | Apr 06 2013
Shine was a great guide,excellent 2 days in shanghai,very flexible,courteous and informative.Shine was the best!
- Ranjit C. | United States | Apr 05 2013
Annie was the best guide in the entire China trip! She is very smart, bright, sensitive, intelligent and knowledgeable person. It was a please talking to her. She took a very good care of us.
- Vadim Azbel . | USA | Apr 02 2013
We booked 3 days of tours with Shanghai-Lander and Shine was our guide. We spent one day touring Shanghai and there is no doubt we saw alot more than we would have if we had been on our own. Although Shanghai is a relatively easy city to get around, having a guide made it stress free and interesting to hear from a local. We also had two day trips to Hangzhou and Suzhou which were fabulous. Highly recommend catching the fast train to get to both rather than drive as it is very efficient, clean and comfortable. Our guide Shine was a delight. He was energetic and very entertaining. Nothing was too much trouble and it was great to get to know a local and get further insight into life in Shanghai.
- Jane M. | Hong Kong | Mar 30 2013
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Doug and Jennie D. In our opinion there would not be a better guide to have in Shanghai than Jean Liu from Shanghai-Lander. Totally professional, client focussed, extremely knowledgeable on the history of Shanghai, fluent with English and a genuinely friendly and wonderful person to share a Shanghai tour experience. A Shanghai gem in our opinion. - Doug & Jennie.
- Doug and Jennie D. | Australia | Mar 29 2013
Kelly did an excellent job. Her English was quite good and I enjoyed her company very much. We had a very full day touring Shanghai and she gave me some helpful tips that I was able to use during the rest of my visit. Royallen
- Royallen W. | Mar 29 2013
Just wanted to write a quick note to thank you and your team, Annie and Mr. Wong for a fabulous day. Everything was perfect from the pick up at the port, the coordination between Annie and Mr. Wong, the great commentary and explanation, the flexibility, and the return to the port on time.
- Lynne S. | USA | Mar 29 2013
Kelly was very professional, thanks
- Antonio V. | Italy | Mar 27 2013
Mark took us to see Zhou Zhuang Water Village, which was one of the most memorable experience I will treasure. A beautiful water village as if time has stood still, with bridges, cobbled streets and ally ways and lovely buildings, you could almost think you were in Venice. Mark was not rushed, he kept pace with us comfortably, allowing me to take lots of photos, wander in and out of shops and chatting with my husband (standing outside shops as men do). Those shops my husband did choose to enter into, Mark gave information on various paintings on display, silk etc whilst informative, Mark did not sound like a walking encyclopeida, but like a friend chatting and sharing information. We had traditional bites of food whilst we were there, which was tasy and delicious.
- Sylvia O. | Australia | Mar 28 2013
We enjoyed our trip to Tongli and Luzhi, and we found the service provided very professional. Fast answer to my e-mails, a detailed plan of the trip given in advance, the car was very comfortable, and our driver was always on time and collaborative, although he did not seem to speak English (but he was not supposed to).
- Alessandro P. | Italy | Mar 27 2013
There were 4 in our party and Annie was our guide and what a wonderful personality she is,she brought the real Shanghai alive for us. We experienced so many sides of this city and learnt so much, without knowledge overload. Annie has the most wonderful sense of humour and a way of making facts so interesting you want to know more and ask questions.The local Dim Sum she said we must taste were the most mouthwatering morsels, so much so we ordered more and had great fun eating them.The MAGLEV train was a must do for the men and was amazing.We saw everything we asked for and more This is the way to see Shanghai, in a 1st class vehicle and a guide like Annie,. Thanks go to Annie and the tour company, Liz, David, Ann and Joe
- elizabeth p. | Australia | Mar 26 2013
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Kalman K. We all enjoyed the tour in Shanghai very much. Mark was great and did excellent job.
- Kalman K. | Hungary | Mar 25 2013

- maurizio | Italy | Mar 21 2013
We had 2 days with Shanghai-Lander and Annie was our guide. She was excellent. We saw everything we wanted to see and much more. She conversed with English very well. This tour company is the way to go!!!
- Sandra S. | USA | Mar 15 2013
My wife and I used Annie Guo of Sanghai Lander on our recent trip to Shanghai. She was great! She is very knowledgeable and was very flexible on changing our plans based on the wheather and our our requests. She showed us a few things that I never even read about in the travelguides (eg the wedding market, where parents and match-makers are meeting to set people up). Her English is excellent and she is very friendly and helpful. I can really recommend her for any visitor to Shanghai.
- Werner D. | Ireland | Mar 08 2013
Having Mark Zhou as a tour guide was like having a close friend with us the whole time in Shanghai. he just made it so much easier for us on our trip, he was very responsive to our needs, helped us with bargaining with the locals, helped us find great places to eat, arranged pick up at airport, was punctual and had a great sense of humor. It really felt like we knew him for a very long time and just made our trip in Shanghai very pleasant. He never rushed us and gladly took pictures of us at all of the historical sites. He was also very knowledgeable of all the historical sites and explained in detail the history of each site. thanks Mark Zhou for making this trip memorable for me and my family, i will never forget it.
- JOEL R. | USA | Mar 15 2013
Harris did an excellent job. He is experienced, intelligent and knowledgeable. We enjoyed his company and would not hesitate to recommend him. The driver who accompanied Harris and drove us to the airport was an excellent driver. The vehicle was comfortable and clean.
- Peter H. | Malaysia | Mar 10 2013
The tour was very nice, and Shanghai looks very interesting city with mixed of new and old places. But Sunny was the best part of this tour as she was much-much better than we expected. She was very friendly, polite and explaining everything she has to and asked to from everyone participated the tour. I believe she is perfect in what she is doing and we couldn't find somebody better than her.
- DIMITRIOS P. | Greece | Mar 03 2013
Had a great couple of days and very much enjoyed Shanghai and the tour. I must also say Darren in particular was excellent, a very professional, friendly, polite and attentive guide. Would highly recommend. Many thanks again for all your help and organizing a superb tour.
- Mike H. | Australia | Mar 02 2013
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Brett S. I would highly recommend using the services of Shanghai-Lander tours.We were fortunate enough to have Annie show us the sights of Shanghai.She was extremely friendly and very informative.We will definately be making use of their services in the future.
- Brett S. | South Africa | Feb 26 2013
We had a great morning walking around the Bund and old town with Jean. She was very informative and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with her.
- Jennifer W. | Australia | Feb 18 2013
We have been living in Shanghai for 6 months and wanted to tour Shanghai and the surrounding area from the perspective of a local Guide. Annie was amazing! We made the tour challenging as we toured over Chinese New Year. Annie had interesting facts; knew the area; was able to call ahead to ensure the attractions were open; and helped us buy a much needed coat for our daughter. We saw downtown Shanghai, Songjiang film studio, Yu Gardens, and the back alleys of daily life in Shanghai and Hangzhou. Annie was a great guide for our trip. If you want to really tour Shanghai, Annie is the best choice!
- Elizabeth A. | United States | Feb 10 2013
ANNIE WAS A PERFECT GUIDE. WE BOOKED HER FOR 2 FULL DAYS. SHE WAS ALWAYS IN TIME. SHE IS INTELLIGENT, WITH HUMOUR, WITH MANY KNOWLEDGES, FLEXIBLE, HELPFUL, DISCREET. WE WERE COMPLETELY SATISFIED. THANKS FOR ALL. WE CAN STRONGLY RECOMMEND ANNIE.
- SIMON and OANA C. | Switzerland | Jan 31 2013
We enjoyed. Annie was a great tour guide A little short but we knew that Thanks
- Scott K. | United States | Jan 24 2013
My tour today with Shine was excellent! He was very professional, knowledgeable, adaptable and pleasant to work with.
- James L. | United States | Jan 19 2013
Jean was our tour guide for a 6 hour tour of the Bund and the French Concession. Jean was extremely knowledgeable and helpful throughout the tour. We had lots of questions that Jean was more than happy to answer as we walked. We would recommend this tour to anybody visiting Shanghai.
- Andrew Dyce . | United Kingdom | Jan 01 2013
Thank you. Tour with Harris was great (in spite of the weather), useful and interesting.
- Clemente M. | United States | Dec 29 2012
I would like to thank you and Shine for arranging a wonderful tour to our family. We are very pleased with Shine’s arrangement and service. He was very attentive to our needs, courteous and helpful. He was very knowledgeable in the history of the places we went to and the museums in particular. He also took us to some very interesting places downtown where I wouldn’t be led to with local tours. It was very interesting and eye opening. He was flexible to accommodate to our needs and when we wanted to change plans, he would encourage us to do so and asked us to relax and worry less for lack of time or otherwise. His English was very good and easy to understand. It was fun going to Suzhou and Tongli with him , running around the water village cos there was so much to see!
- Ms S C. | Hong Kong | Dec 22 2012
This is our first time in Shanghai with two young children, so we decided to engage Shanghai lander for a tour to Tongli. It was a great experience and Annie, our guide was very pleasant. She was very patient and knowledgable. She provided a lot of interesting facts, making the trip more memorable.
- Pk C. | Malaysia | Dec 24 2012
Hi Jean, I would like to thank you again for making my stay in Shanghai so interesting and also thank you for organizing everything so well.
- Georg K. | Germany | Dec 12 2012
Annie was our tour guide for the morning and she was great and very knowledgeable. We took a cab from our hotel to the start of the tour (cabs are cheap and efficient so we did not mind paying). We did have a lot to see, so we moved through the walk quickly. It would have been good however to linger a little longer in some of the places but I am sure this could have been arranged if we wanted. Everything was confirmed before hand, it was a lovely way to see a lot of Shanghai that I probably would not have seen otherwise. I would recommend this tour, and would consider doing a longer one next time to have the opportunity to spend more time in certain areas.
- Rachel W. | Australia | Nov 24 2012
We were very happy with Annie, the guide supplied by Shanghai Lander for our visit to Shanghai in November 2012. Her knowledge of Shanghai and her English skills were excellent. She was very sensitive to the pace of touring we wanted. We would recommend both the company and Annie to anyone looking for a personally customized tour of Shanghai.
- Yaeko M. | Canada | Nov 20 2012
Our guide Shine took all the effort and uncertainty out of these trips and he proved himself very knowledable and reliable. At our request we travelled to Suzhou and Hangzhou by fast train and that was a very enjoyable experience in itself. In both of these cities we were met at the train station by a chauffeur and his car and he transported us around until it was time to take us back to the train station for the return to Shanghai. We had busy days with lots of sightseeing and Shine took us to a local restaurant each day for lunch, usually an economical noodle restaurant.
- Pam G. | Australia | Oct 15 2012
The tour was a great way to see as much as possible - we had just over 24 hours in Shanghai. Mark was great - took us to all the places we hoped to see and it was very interesting getting a local perspective on the development of Shanghai.
- Paul M. | Ireland | Nov 06 2012
Annie was a wonderful guide for our four days of tours in Shanghai and Suzhou. She worked with us to make the tours exactly tailored to our tastes and interests. We feel that we saw all that we wanted to in the time we had. Her humor and sparkling personality kept us laughing while we learned the history of Shanghai. Her explanations and frankness gave us great insight into the modern Chinese lifestyle. She showed up at our hotel every morning, with a smile and ready to show us the town. We highly recommend her to anyone who wants a memorable Shanghai experience.
- Peter J. L. | United States | Oct 24 2012
Our guide, Jean Liu, was first rate..Very professional and knowledgable, while being a nice person with whom to spend time. I would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Shanghai..
- Steven B. | United States | Oct 20 2012
My wife and I are extremely happy to have had Annie Guo as our guide for a full day in Shanghai. Annie was fabulous and the day was wonderful. It was everything we had hoped for and more. Annie’s English is excellent. She met us at our hotel and we embarked on our whirlwind but detailed tour of Shanghai: the Bund with visits to and detailed explanations of the Peace Hotel and the HSBC bank building, an explanation of the influence of the Sassoon family on business and commerce in Shanghai, YuYuan Gardens and the surrounding markets and living areas, the French Concession with its historical structures, Peoples Square and the Museum of Urban Renewal. She also took us to the pet market, fresh food market, East Nanjing Pedestrian Road and the old town bazaar. We found her to be very well-informed, intelligent and open-minded. She answered all of our questions, including those of a social or political nature.
- Mark S. | United States | Oct 23 2012
We booked a 7 passenger van, driver and interpreter at Shanghai-Lander for a business meeting in Rugao (2.5 hours north of Shanghai). Our interpretor, Shine, was very knowledgeable in local information, but more importantly in local business culture. We were able to get through a few awkward moments in our lunch meeting and factory tour with his help. It also helped that he got along well with the business contact. They did exactly what they were booked for, and they did it well.
- Dan F. | Canada | Oct 23 2012
We had a lovely time with Annie the last couple of days. We have seen so much thanks to her. Your driver was lovely too - very safe driver - unlike the kamikazi taxi drivers!
- Tammy L. | Australia | Oct 12 2012
I must say that we both very much enjoyed the trip to Xi'An and Beijing. The organisation you supplied was extremely good. The guides (Fiona and Matthew) were very pleasant and friendly always with a smile. They both had good knowledge and explained quite a lot about the history of the places we visited. We both had a good time talking with them and visiting many places of interest.
- Graham M. | Shanghai | Oct 10 2012
Thank you so much for all the arrangements. Shine was a Great guide and he was very educative and humorous. We had a great time in the offsite.
- Abinash G. | India | Oct 09 2012
Darren Gao was an excellent tour guide; knowledgeable, friendly and spoke beautiful English!
- Paula D. | United States | Oct 06 2012
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller George R. Harris was absolutely terrific. We enjoyed every moment we spent with him. His knowledge of Shanghai, its history and culture is very impressive.
- George R. | United States | Sep 29 2012
Kelly was a great guide to have with invaluable local knowledge. We're a family of 5 and there's no way we could've worked out the route or had the ability to understand what we saw without her. The itinerary was changed according to out needs. She took us to Yang's dumplings for lunch which make an awesome dumpling. Great day in Shanghai. Tomorrow we're on our own.
- George S. | Australia | Oct 02 2012
We had a great day. Mark was extremely helpful in getting all the pieces to fit. He suggested Tiger Hill and a boat ride - organized everything quickly and to our satisfaction. I believe our itinerary was better as a result of his input and discussions with us. He knew his job, gave us interesting information and was very pleasant. We will definitely recommend your company to others.
- Joel O. | Israel | Sep 20 2012
Annie arrived early to pick up my family of 7 (ages ranging from 13 to 70) from the cruise terminal for a day tour of Shanghai on August 30, 2012. We only had a short amount of time (approximately 6 hours) to see the city. Annie helped us identify the most relevant sights to see including the French quarter, Yu garden, and the Bund. She gave us very interesting details and history of the places we visited. She also took us to a great restaurant for lunch and taught us the correct way to eat steamed dumplings! We enjoyed our time with Annie and would recommend her and Shanghai Lander Tours!
- Dawn M. | United States | Aug 30 2012
The best tour guide we had in china. Shanghai lander knew what we wanted from our trip and they tailored the best tour for me and my wife during our two days in shanghai we feel like we saw the past and the current shanghai. Mr shine our giude was very much experienced he knew his way arround the city and he was very nice and a good friend to us as well, also he is an amature magician so during long drives he will entertain us by some good magic tricks. Overall it was a good choice and incase we will visit shanghai in the future we will definitly contact shanghai lander.
- Hasan S. | Syrian Arab Republic | Sep 03 2012
Thank you very much for assisting my family with the shanghai itinerary. The shanghai trip was fantastic and everyone had a great time. Annie is an excellent guide and Mr. Xu is an incredible driver. Thanks again. We will highly recommend your company and Annie to our friends and colleagues.
- will f. | Canada | Aug 14 2012
We are very lucky to have found Shanghai Lander and Kelly was a great tour guide! She was very kind, funny and helpful. She was flexible with our requests and geared everything toward our specific interests. We hired Kelly for two days and the best part of our trip was learning more about Chinese culture and Shanghai through her. She was super gracious to share her personal perspectives and we thank her for letting us get to know her.
- Kim S. | United States | Jul 08 2012
I had a really nice trip and Shine was friendly accommodating, polite and flexible. So all together well worth the money!
- Knut M. | Germany | Aug 11 2012
Jean was already booked, but she referred us to Annie Guo. We really liked her! She did a great job and tailored the tour of suzhou to our 9 year old son.
- Suzanne M. | United States | Jun 23 2012
Harris was a very helpful and informative guide. We enjoyed our tour, and felt that it was really tailored to meet our needs.
- Patti S. | United States | Jul 16 2012
My American friend just spent a day with Annie at SuZhou and spoke very highly about her service. He described Annie as a very professional guide who's really comfortable to be around with. She's not the type of guide who's constantly talking, but she's very responsive and insightful whenever any questions are raised. She took my friend to very authentic Chinese lunch places that he liked a lot. Overall we are very glad with what Annie provided and would definitely recommend her to others in the future.
- Shannon C. | China | Jul 12 2012
Jean was an incredible guide! We had a group of 23 family members including 9 kids and she had the patience of Job. She was organized, interesting, Fun, knowledgeable and kind. Will definitely use her again!
- Dana S. | United States | Jul 09 2012
I would highly recommend Annie as a first class guide for touring Shanghai. Annie is so knowledgeable and interesting to listen to that I believe she could add great value to anything you might otherwise think of visiting independently and help you with the remainder of your itinerary. She did an excellent job of balancing our tour to suit my 7 & 9 year old girls as well. This company is wonderful, we toured with Harris to Zhujiajiao and Jean was so flexible in our planning when we needed to change days. Their advice about what to see and when and company on a tour is first class.
- Susan T. | United States | Jul 06 2012
We had a wonderful time over the last few days! Mark is a great tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and we had a lot of fun! Shanghai and Hangzhou are beautiful and being with Mark made it so much easier to get around and see everything. Without him we would not have known about all of the history and culture! You are lucky to have him working for you! Thank you so much for making all of the arrangements for us, especially as we came to you so last minute.
- Kelly T. | United States | Jul 07 2012
Had a fantastic 2 days with Annie . She is a super young lady - very professional , informed , and able to add fun to an interesting day touring around Shanghais old town and a visit to the water town of Tongli . We highly recommend her to everyone . If you plan on a trip out to Tongli be aware that it is quite a drive in some challenging traffic. Our driver was also 1st class so all in all I doubt you could better the combination we had . Thanks Annie
- Peter H. | Australia | Jun 20 2012
Thank you (Jean) so much for such a lovely day in Shanghai! We absolutely cherish our time with you visiting sites and listening to your story of Shanghai. The photos are marvelous and our memories are most exciting because you were able to not only show us the sites, but also to capture the heart of Shanghai in your stories, explanations and questions asked back to us.
- Gilbert F. | United States | Jul 01 2012
Jimmy was excellent. I will definitely recommend him and will book another tour in the future. Many thanx.
- Sven K. | Germany | Jun 18 2012
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Daniel F. The tour with Shine was very good. We were not an easy group (demands of students and professors) and we are very satisfied with him and the tour. I will recommend you to other people who come to Shanghai and I hope to have a tour with you at another occasion.
- Daniel F. | Switzerland | Jun 18 2012
I must say that I had a really nice experience in Shanghai. I spent 2 days in that huge city with my guide Mark who was very nice, helpful and flexible as we added a few attractions which were not planned at the beginning. Thanks to him!!! I can highly recommend Shanghai Lander if you plan to visit this city!
- Steve C. | Switzerland | Jun 09 2012
We had a fantastic day today and Annie was great and entertaining as well as knowledgable. We will definitely recommend your services to anyone coming to Shanghai.
- Jane W. | Australia | Jun 15 2012
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Rok Kvaternik and prof. dr. Janez B. FROM SLOVENIA: We had little time to organize our visit of Shanghai, so we selected the outfitter by Internet. Jean was chosen, and the Shanghai Lander. We spent two full days with Jean and organization of our stay was just perfect. Excellent English spoken and well educated in history and other social affairs, Jean showed us this magnificent city. A selection of everything, just the right measure of museums, local lovely districts, food market, arts, etc. Meticulously conducted itinerary will bring us back to Shanghai, definitely. And we will look not, but call Jean for new travel gems she can offer. Rok Kvaternik CEO of Klett EE and prof. dr. Janez Bogataj, Chairman of the Expert Committee of the Slovenian Travel Organization.
- Rok Kvaternik and prof. dr. Janez B. | Slovenia | Jun 10 2012
Annie did a great job in providing the history of the Shanghai highlights we visited, but most valuable for me were her insights and experiences of life in China. Her sense of humour and anecdotes really brought China to life and I will be sharing her stories for many years to come.
- Janine E. | Australia | Jun 08 2012
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Mark D. We booked two days with Jean to get the most out of our short time in Shanghai. Absolutely no regrets and a strong recommendation for anyone following us. Jean was so reliable, professional, passionate and knowledgable. Day one in the busy city and then day two by contrast in the water village. We ended up feeling that we knew a lot about the city and its history, life through the ages, and the influences on the city right up to current times. We also felt we got to know a little about Jean and her life and aspirations in modern China - an insight we couldn\'t have got any other way. Thank you Jean. We feel we made a real friend!
- Mark D. | United Kingdom | May 13 2012
I spent one and a half day with Annie Guo in and around Shanghai, focusing mainly on the most interesting part of Shanghai\'s history, the first half of the twentieth century. Included were e.g. visits in the French Concession and to the Jewish ghetto. Annie was very knowledgeable. And of course she could answer my questions about today\'s life in Shanghai. The private car we used was perfect. And particularly I appreciated the fast response by Shanghai-Lander. Conclusion: highly recommended.
- Alfred B. | Switzerland | Jun 02 2012
The tour was very good specially Lina that was very entusiástic and was vera knowlagable about the sorroundings and the Story of Shanghai. After the tour ended se gave US a lot of tips of wat where the nice places....

My guide Shine was excellent!He really introduced me to Shanghai in an excellent way! I really enjoyed seeing Huihui road,Xintiandi,Nanjing road,The Bund with him. I feel that i could get the best out of my time because of his expertise in planning the evening. Thanks -Shine and Jean.

It was a great day - I really enjoyed the day with Jimmy - he is a great tour guide and very caring person - and it was a lot to see.
- Johanna U. | Germany | May 23 2012
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Liam c. Harris was fantastic, very accommodating and went beyong expectation.
- Liam c. | May 22 2012
I can see why Shanghai-Lander is ranked #1 after touring Tongli this past week. We contacted Jean, very last minute, with a tour request. Her fast and cleared communication placed us with Shine who was a great guide for the day. He was both knowledgable and pleasant and made sure that our day trip out of Shanghai was exactly what we had hoped for. Most pleased and happy to recommend Jean, Shine and Shanghai-Lander to all!
- Scott and Nancy Laidlaw . | Katy, USA | May 15 2012
Ray is very well spoken and hospitable. Also, he seemed genuinely concerned that we enjoy ourselves. He was an excellent guide.
- Scott E. | New York, USA | May 13 2012
Our guide - Shine - was fantastic. Both the tour of old town Shanghai and the trip out to Zhu Jia Jiao water town were great experiences and the price for a private tour was reasonable in US $.
- Jane T. | United Kingdom | May 05 2012
We spent 3 days with her (Annie) and feel very lucky to have had her show us around. Annie is charming, speaks perfect English, is very smart and prepared a great 3 day itinerary for us. First day we toured Shanghai, next day went to Hangzhou, and third day half day and lunch at a water town and the rest of the afternoon a walking tour of the French Concession. She was very knowledgeable, planned everything to perfection and made our visit so interesting. I highly recommend the services of Shanghai Lander and especially if you get Annie to show you around.
- Beatriz B. | New Orleans, USA | May 04 2012
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Joanna K. Our tour guide Harris Gu was great! We were a group of four who had one day free to tour Shanghai. We wanted to see as much as we could in one day. It was a whole day tour from 9.30am - 10.30pm. They arranged a private van that could bring us to the places we wanted to go. It was a long day but very informative and fun. We saw so many things. Harris was very knowledgeable about the places he brought us too and provided a background about history etc. I can gladly recommend Shanghai-Lander (Private Tours) and Harris Gu to those who want to have a great experience touring Shanghai.

- Fred C. | USA | Apr 25 2012
We enjoyed our Tongli tour with Annie. She was very friendly and shared lots of information & tips about Shanghai. Will recommend Shanghai Lander to my friends.
- Wendy Y. | May 02 2012
It's been a fantastic trip to Shanghai, mainly because we had the pleasure to be with Mark. He was beyond all expectations. His egelske language was very good. He could answer all our many questions about Shanghai, but also throughout China. He was nice and pleasant to be with. Of course we would also recommend you to others who may be going to Shanghai.

Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Handy K. It was a great expirience with Harris in Shanghai.
- Handy K. | Apr 16 2012
We are very grateful to our guide Shine and driver Mr Hu for the very interesting tour of Zhu Jia Jiao Water Town. Despite the rain Shine made the day thoroughly enjoyable for our group, he spoke fantastic English and was very knowledgeable about the area and it's history. We would definately recommend using Shanghai Lander.
- Philip M. | Shanghai | Apr 09 2012
I was referred to Jean Liu at Shanhai Lander via Trip Advisor. Annie Guo was our tour guide in Shanghai.She was super informative with a wonderfully entertaining personality. We originally planned to spend two days with Annie but decided to do something different the second day otherwise we would have enjoyed her for an additional day. My correspondence with the company was always easy. Jean Liu responded promptly to my questions and I felt secure that our touring would proceed without complication- which it did. I can\'t recommend Shanghai-Lander enough and hope that I would be able to work with the company again one day.
- mark s. | United States | Mar 29 2012
I luckily had Annie Guo as my tour guide and she was absolutely fantastic, very knowledgeable and kind.She transformed a boring business trip in to a wonderful time, and pointed out great and beautiful things about this very intriguing and amazing city that you cannot see it for yourself unless you were born there. Thanks to Shanghai Lander and specially Anny Guo.
- Hermes G. | United States | Mar 03 2012
I had a great time with Kelly, she adapted to my already advanced Shanghai knowledge and still found interesting and exciting spots. She even helped me organise a tour to Hangzhou. Great value for the money!
- Mario P. | Germany | Mar 28 2012
To add a different edge to your holiday, I would highly recommend Shanghai-Lander for those with "novice" and even "pro" knowledge of Shanghai. To break up our 5-day visit, we were taken by Kelly to the picturesque canal town of Tongli. It was a marvelous day out, starting from our 9:30am Hotel pick up to 6pm drop off. Kelly's knowledge and company was very enjoyable, and she felt part of the family by the end of it. Kelly helped lead the way, bargain our souvenir purchases, take family photos, and provided additional recommendations for our final days. Nice to leave Shanghai with these great memories, and a new friend in Kelly!

Ray saved us today from missing our flight as we were cross town lost and at the mercy of a poor taxi driver. He is kind considerate friendly and helpful. He made our trip even better than we thought possible.
- Bernadette M. | Australia | Mar 19 2012
We had a wonderful day with Annie exploring this fabulous city.The driver was very prompt too. We had an enjoyable time at the acrobats and no trouble getting a taxi back to the hotel. Thank you for all your help.
- bernice c. | Australia | Mar 12 2012
We had a great time in Shanghai. Congratulations for having Ray in your team. He is like a walking encyclopedia of what\'s to know in Shanghai. He has an excellent command of English. Please extend our compliments to him. Hope to visit Shanghai in the near future.
- sherwin c. | Philippines | Mar 10 2012
The tour with Annie was great, although the weather was not good, I had lots of fun and learned a lot about Shanghai. Annie is a great guide with lots of knowledges and good recommendations. It was perfect. Thanks a lot.
- Pia S. | Germany | Mar 02 2012
Our tour with Kelly was good. She was very knowledgeable and friendly Her english was very good as well. Thank you
- Helene L. | Canada | Feb 22 2012
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Kay G. We had two trips with Shanghai Lander altogether, both with Annie, and they were definitely the highlight of our stay! The one day walking tour was an excellent introduction to this amazing city, and ensured that we saw & experienced things we would certainly have missed on our own. It was such fun to jump into taxis and onto the metro, and stroll through the backstreets of the Old Town, or the French Quarter, all the while listening to Annie's astonishingly well informed commentaries on anything from Art Deco architecture to the best places to shop. In addition to her inexhaustable knowledge, she spoke excellent English and had a very good sense of humour, all of which ensured that we had a fabulous day. We had no hesitation in booking a second trip later in the week, this time to the 'water town' of Zhujiajiao - an absolutly delightful morning: do try to visit, if you get a chance.
- Kay G. | United Kingdom | Feb 13 2012
We had a great time with Kelly and Xu (our driver) today! They were both very professional and accommodating. We will definitely recommend your tour company to any of our friends that plan a visit in Shanghai. Again, thank you for all your help in organizing our tour and for making our day in Shanghai a memorable one.
- Mary F. | Feb 19 2012
Hi Kelly! Thank you again so much for all your help – it was very much appreciated – you are a world class ambassador for the people of Shanghai!
- Brian G. | United States | Feb 03 2012
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Maria . Pasamos tres días divertidos y muy informativos en Shanghai. Shine Qiu es un guía extraordinario, siempre puntual y dispuesto a ayudar. Contesto todas nuestras preguntas y nos mostró muchos aspectos de la ciudad.
- Maria . | Colombia | Jan 22 2012
We really had a fun,informative day in Shanghai.Jean was fantastic,extremely obliging , answered all our questions and showed us many aspects of the city.Considering we are a family of five with children aged 14,12 and 9 and were in transit for only one day, we saw a lot with minimal fuss.We would highly recommend Jean for anyone who needs a private guide of Shanghai.
- Ian M. | Australia | Jan 18 2012
It is hard to adequately explain how amazing our experience was. She (Annie) was early to our hotel both days and had a well organized plan based on our previous correspondence, however Annie quickly adapted to any changes we threw at her. Not only did we leave with a comprehensive overview of Shanghai, but her knowledge of the history and culture was almost scary. Historical names, dates and facts rolled off her tongue as if she was reciting them directly from a text book. Annie was extremely easy to understand and her witty personality was also much appreciated.
- Ryan G. | United States | Dec 27 2011
Kelly is very knowledgable, speaks English fluently, and has a very pleasing personality. She accomodated all our requests and answered all our questions. Booking them will really give value for money because no time is wasted going through "tourist traps" like jade/tea shops, which is customary for other tour packages arranged by agencies. I will recommend Shanghai-Lander to all those who wish to visit Shanghai and other other nearby cities.
- Candice T. | Philippines | Dec 27 2011
Thanks for sending Annie, she was informative and very enthusiastic. We enjoyed the French Concession and decided to stay back to shop after the tour.
- Soo Min W. | Dec 25 2011
We had terrific time with Aron. Thanks for connecting us with him.
- Ozden U. | Turkey | Dec 28 2011
Our family had a enjoyable time especially my Dad who appreciates Chinese culture, scenery and the cuisine;,our thanks to Kelly who provided good personal service.
- Angela T. | Singapore | Dec 11 2011
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Sian Annie was fabulous. Warm Witty Knowledgeable Funny Everything good times ten!
- Sian | United States | Nov 23 2011
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Melanie C. Jean, Thank you so much for the wonderful time you gave us in Shanghai! The children have talked about the trip a lot since we arrived home and declared the \'fast train\' and \'rock maze\' as their overall favourites.
- Melanie C. | Philippines | Nov 01 2011
We were all very impressed with annie today. She was very informative and enthusiastic. She was helpful in our emergency illness and injuries this morning. We would not have been able to manage without her. I would recommend her as a guide to anyone visiting Shanghai.
- sharon g. | Australia | Nov 20 2011
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Robert B. Aron is phenomenal and the bank sources you set up are great. Aaron and I are now going to inland China to meet more sources.
- Robert B. | United States | Nov 07 2011
We found Kelly to be smart, informative, a pleasure to spend time with, and good with English. She knew the history of all the local sites and got us there safely and smoothly. She recommended great restaurants (even vegetarian), is good finding transportation (taxi, metro, train), is happy to take your photo, and can take you to one of the best city lookouts in the world.
- Eric T. | Oct 28 2011
Annie was a terrific guide with very good english. She was informative and caring in looking after the children who were on the tour.
- Jane | Australia | Oct 23 2011
Shine was full of energy, attentive and informative. We did just not have enough time to do everything, if we were not limited by time, I think Shine would still be going. Good job. Well done!
- Christopher | Singapore | Oct 21 2011
we booked a spanish speaking guide, and also car and driver and for the two days we were in shanghai this was absolutely great! evry commitment was met and the spanish speaking guide, lidia, was very informed and attentive and gave us more than we expected. i can say that both my wife and i were very much satisfied and would recommend lidia to anyone coming to shanghai.
- Marcel R. | Ecuador | Oct 17 2011
Thank you, we loved our time with Shine. The water town trip was brilliant for its lanscapes and peacefulness and the food we've had at the local restaurant there was the best we've had in China! And Shine, we finally got to him!:) He was the peak of our visit! He is having such an incredible unique way of dealing with everything that we were totally charmed by him! He is also great at explaining things in English as he uses a lot of sinonimous words making himself understood even by the ones who don't master English very well. We definitely recommend everybody to get Shine as a tour guide as you could not get a more tipical experience of Shanghai, he was always enhancing our mood with his way of being!
- Gloria V. | | Oct 12 2011
Everything went quite well, we enjoyed a lot our stay, and Annie is a very good guide (and a bright and curious person besides).
- Giancarlo L. | Oct 17 2011
The trip to Suzhou and Zhouzhuang was well arranged. We appreciate the effort of Kelly to explain the history and significance of the various places we visited.
- Yeap Lam K. | Singapore | Oct 09 2011
We stayed in Shaghai recently and had Jean (JingJing) for our guide. Although we were limited on time, she took us on an incredible journey through Shanghai. Our experiences with her were varied, from shopping and bargaining and touring to lunches of dumplings and other local foods. So helpful with the language barrier. We will miss the famous dumplings we had on the first day! We were more than pleased with her services and hope to meet up with her again! We consider her a friend now too!! Can\\\'t wait to come back!!! JJ, remember...no high fives!!! (private joke).
- Darren & Kelly, Edmonton, Alberta, C. | Canada | Sep 16 2011
We had a wonderful time in Shanghai. Edward did a great job as our tour guide. He is very knowledgeable, friendly, warm and helpful. Thank you so much for your assistance. My wife and I had a great visit, and would love to come back to this beautiful and vibrant city. I will definitely recommend your services.
- Jeff G. | United States | Sep 25 2011
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller lottie h. The tour with Aron was nice and we enjoyed it very much and would like to come back one day.
- lottie h. | Australia | Sep 16 2011
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Chad J. Jean Liu is by far the best guide I ever had, she is both extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Shanghai.
- Chad J. | United States | Sep 15 2011
Aron was excellent - very informative and full of enthusiasm, with perfect English. I especially appreciated his humour with all of us and also entertaining my son (who's the same age as his).
- Chia | Sep 22 2011
We had a great time in Shanghai, despite the heat and occasional rain. Kelly was excellent as a tour guide, being friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible in the sites that we visited. We enjoyed having her show off Shanghai. We will recommend our friends and family who wishes a guide to your city.
- Richard C. | United States | Aug 10 2011
Aron was a terrific guide and I had a wonderful time in Shanghai. I\'m looking forward to coming back sometime.
- Mark H. | United States | Jul 23 2011
The tour was wonderful! I felt like I got to see everything in a good amount of time, things I would not have found by myself. I have been around Hangzhou and Thousand Island but the most stress-free and interesting part has been the tour with Aron. He is very professional and clever, I felt like I was well looked after. Thankyou very much, I will recommend this service and Aron\'s to my friends.
- Amy M. | Australia | Jul 05 2011
Despite the very short time we had to see Shanghai, Kelly\'s guidance was excellent and she definitely made the very best out of it! I can warmly recommend her - even for \"express tours\" like ours :-). Send her my and Bo\'s best regards. Thanks also to you for your professional organisation! Many greetings from Vienna, Alexander
- Alexander | Austria | Jul 06 2011
We had an excellent day in the water town. Jean is an articulate, intelligent, knowledgable and conversational guide. We enjoyed asking her about Tongli, Shanghai, and all things China. I had originally considered another tour service (with higher prices) in Shanghai with native English-speaking guides. (Jean is from Shanghai.) I am *very* happy I booked with Jean. She is familiar and comfortable with a western audience, and yet adds a local perspective to her tours.
- Margaret S. | United States | Jun 24 2011
Our guide was Aron. He met us at our hotel on time, we took the subway all over, its very clean, safe and easy to understand how to get around. We visited the Bund, a Buddhist Temple, the Shanghai Museum, the pearl market and the old Shanghai area. I strongly recommend you hiring a guide for a Shanghai Visit ... this was not the first time I visited Shanghai and had not discovered so much.
- Richard D. | Canada | Jun 19 2011
Kelly was very adaptable to the tour activities I had in mind, and provided a lot of insights into Shanghai. The weather was great and the cruise provided some lovely panoramas. Kelly volunteered to take photos of the sights; allowing me to operate the video recording. She was most helpful, polite and friendly.
- Tony | Australia | Jun 18 2011
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Jamie The four days we spent with Kelly as our Guide around Shanghai and Hangzhou, everything was organised very professionally and really added to the enjoyment of my Mum's visit to Shanghai. Despite having lived in Shanghai for almost a year, Kelly's experience and insight into the sights of Shanghai meant many new places to see. Her English skills were excellent and she was very good company.
- Jamie | China | May 10 2011
Unlike most visitors, I wasn't interested in the "typical" sites that most tourists would visit, so my requirements were probably a bit tougher than most. In the end Jean did a great job of planning several local sites, particularly local eats and street food, and also took me for a walk through local neighborhoods - all the while filling me in on the history of what we were looking at.
- Joe | China | Apr 19 2011
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Rosemary Jean packed our day in Shanghai with fascinating sites. She personalized our tour, even researching information in advance. She was adaptable, adding to our itinerary as we expressed interest in learning.
- Rosemary | USA | Mar 20 2011
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Terry W. I did a business trip to Shanghai November 2010 and I was on limited time to sight see so I decided to get a Tour Guide for a day. She knows what landmarks to see what places to visit and where to eat and with a commentary that rolls off her tongue like the true professional she is, its amazing. I booked her immediately for 3 more days and she helped enormously with translation during my business meetings.
- Terry W. | Australia | Nov 05 2010
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Terry and M. We really enjoyed having Jean Liu as our tour guide during our two days in Shanghai. She was very easygoing, friendly, and explained what we were seeing in excellent English. She made good suggestions for things to see and do while in Shanghai -- including some that we would have never thought of doing on our own -- and took us to two excellent restaurants.
- Terry and M. | USA | Mar 20 2010
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Vincent L. I came back from a wonderful trip to Shanghai thanks to a great tour guide, Jean Liu. Even though my trip to Shanghai was brief and short, She made my trip a memorable one. Out of all the tour guide guide I had from traveling to all the different places, she is one of the best.
- Vincent L. | New York, USA | Dec 10 2010
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller George M. As an energetic couple Hannah and I got to see an unbelievable amount of wonderful treasures and on our last day as the sun set on Shanghai, Jean (our tour guide) took us to one of those mile high buildings at Pudong financial center. A perfect ending.
- George M. | Florida, USA | Sep 08 2010
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Benjamin C. A true professional! Jean helped to arrange a five day programme for nine business people from Australia visiting Shanghai. User her deep knowledge of Shanghai and its traffic, she assisted in planning the itinerary including coordination with businesses we visited and airport transfers. Jean's flexibility was refreshing as we changed the itinerary on the fly to suit our needs. Our visit to the Expo and the Port of Shanghai were memorable thanks to Jean's efforts. I can highly recommend Jean!!
- Benjamin C. | Sydney, Australia | Aug 24 2010
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Matt W. Jean was better than we ever could have dreamed. She is an excellent guide, kind person, and truly an ambassador for the city of Shanghai. I wish we could take her on the rest of our vacation.
- Matt W. | Indianapolis, USA | Jul 05 2010
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Christopher M. We spent 1 1/2 days with Jean to see the main sights of Shanghai and to have a knowledgeable local to consult with at the tailor's market. It was absolutely fantastic, Jean is very hospitable, kind and has excellent knowledge of the city and its attractions. The tours don't follow a rigid schedule, everything is flexible and can be adjusted to personal likes and dislikes - which we find great!
- Christopher M. | Switzerland | Jun 23 2010
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Wes B. Jean was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable about Shanghai and was able to put together a custom-tailored tour for me on short notice. She has a very comforting presence and way of speaking. Her English is excellent. She was always very professional. Thank you Jean!
- Wes B. | Edmonton, Canada | May 22 2010
I enjoyed my visit to Shanghai very much. Kelly was my tour guide and did a great job showing me around the World Expo and the areas of Shanghai I needed to visit. She is very knowledgeable about the city and helpful in putting together an itinerary. I would highly recommend Kelly to others choosing to visit Shanghai.
- Scott Y. | USA | May 10 2010
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Luke Heath, CEO Chandler Heath R. She helped us co-ordinate multiple business meetings across the city. Jean has a strong knowledge of local landmarks, restaurants, and history. She is friendly and professional. We could not have had a better guide!
- Luke Heath, CEO Chandler Heath R. | Sydney, Australia | Apr 29 2010
We enjoyed Kelly a lot. She shared a lot about everyday life allowing us to learn about local culture as well as historical sites. She is very personably, warm and knowledgeable on historical facts. Also, I believe we all had a few laughs along the way. Driver was also very polite, friendly and wanting to please. We were happy that we could all lunch together and laugh over our chopsticks ability. Kelly tried very hard to accommodate all our requests.
- Karl S. | USA | Apr 02 2010
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller David E. Jean Liu was a great guide for our first full day in Shanghai. She chose the highlights and showed us exactly what we were looking for. She is obviously very proud of Shanghai (who can blame her) and can barely contain her excitement for the expansion of the city. I recommend her for a great tour of the city and thank her for our experience.
- David E. | Maine, USA | Mar 11 2010
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Evelyn and Martin M. We travelled a lot for a month. She was the best guide. We think she is personable, knowledgably, and loves what she is doing. This transmits itself. Nothing was too much for her to do. She helped us in the freezing cold. She conducted herself very professionally. She was the guide who made the lasting impression. We will certain recommend her and your company to anyone. She receives our highest possible commendation.
- Evelyn and Martin M. | Florida, USA | Dec 19 2009
Shanghai Private Tour Traveller Ken H. We were travelling as two families for a one week trip to Shanghai. Jean had everything superbly organised from time of pick up to time of departure. The advantage of using Jean as a tour guide was that all along, all things went very smoothly. We managed to see all of our planned itinerary at also some extra. Jean was conscious of costs and ensured we got best value out of the stay.
