Memorable trip in Shanghai

Published on Dec, 2024

We had a 3-days private tour with Jenny’s Shanghai tour that includes one day to Hangzhou and one day to Suzhou. The itinery were impeccably planned. Our guide, Grace, was very attentive, caring and knowledgeable. She went out of her way to accomodate our needs. Our driver, Mr. Huang, was courteous and punctual. They made our trip very memorable. We all had a great time! We will definitely use their service again if we go back to China!

Jenny’s Tours are the BEST!!!

Published on Sep, 2024

Jenny’s Shanghai Tour was amazing! Contact them if you want an unforgettable experience. Our trip was well organized and ran smoothly with our interests and comfort always kept in mind. They are by far the best tour operator we have traveled with. All the sites were fascinating, full of history and beauty. The personalized service made us enjoy every moment without any concerns or stressing about the next plan of adventures. This was the best vacation! You will not regret booking with Jenny and will not find a tour company who truly values their customers this much.

Incredible Shanghai with Cathy and Jenny

Published on Apr, 2024

Last day in China as we head home on a 8pm flight. Jenny arranged to pick us up at our hotel mid-morning and filled our day with incredible memories with our host Cathy. We started the day with a visit to St. Ignatius Catholic Church. Designed by English architect William Doyle, and built by French Jesuits between 1906 and 1910, this cathedral is said to have once been known as "the grandest church in the Far East”…and we agree. Then off to our last temple tour of this trip…Longhua Temple is the oldest temple in Shanghai and was first built in 242 AD. Because of its destruction by the wars, most of the buildings were reconstructed during the reign of the Emperor Tongzhi and Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty. It features a unique Bell and Drum tower, multiple halls and is the largest temple in Shanghai occupying over 5 acres. This is truly a stunning temple and we had lots of time to explore. Cathy took us to lunch at the famous Jia Jia Tang Bao...they have been making handmade dumplings since 1986. No visit would be complete without a Huangpu River Cruise…day or evening. Amazing views of both the old and new Shanghai skylines and it was a gorgeous day...clear skies. We then went to Fuxing Park which is located in the former French Concession. It was once the largest park in Shanghai and laid out by the French in 1909. About 10 hectare (25 acres) in size. It features a lake, fountains, covered pavilions, and lots of flowerbeds. Early morning, the park fills with dancers, card players, mahjong enthusiasts, tai chi and artists. If you want an incredible experience in Shanghai that starts from the booking all the way through execution, go with Jenny's Shanghai Tours.

Amazing day tour!

Published on Mar, 2024

We only had one day in Shanghai but Peggy, our private tour guide, made it super special. We booked a private day tour with Jenny's Shanghai tours to make the most out of our transit so we wouldn't be strapped down by a group. Just to name a few things, we saw the Yu Garden, the Jade Buddha temple, the historic town, the bund as well as the new financial district with the highest building and did a ferry ride on the river. We had a tea ceremony and got to try local dumplings. Peggy was amazing, she was very very helpful (specifically since we had to do arrangements for our further travel) and was a wealth of knowledge, a beautiful source of stories and anecdotes. No doubt, we would have enjoyed Shanghai a lot less without her. Highly recommended!!!

Absolute blast! Last Minute Shanghai Experience

Published on Jan, 2024

I recently returned from my holiday, and our final stop before heading to Sydney was in Shanghai. Jenny proved to be outstanding by putting together a last-minute itinerary for me. Despite having only a 15-hour layover, she did an amazing job ensuring that we made the most of our time in Shanghai. Thanks to her efforts, we enjoyed a comprehensive private tour, with Troy as our guide throughout. Troy's expertise shone through as he took us to the finest places that Shanghai has to offer. With him at the helm, there's no room for error, you simply go with the flow and enjoy the experience. My husband and I had an absolutely delightful time, and I wholeheartedly recommend them for your tour needs! Thanks to your teaam, Well Done!
