The 8 Best Self-Guided Tours & Rentals in Shanghai, Shanghai Region
The largest city in China is also its most cosmopolitan, offering visitors a chance to experience the past, present, and future all at once. The Huangpu River splits Shanghai into two districts: Pudong and Puxi. The Pudong skyline looks like it was ripped from the Jetsons, with the bulbous Oriental Pearl TV and Radio Tower looking a bit like a two headed lollipop. On the Puxi side, you can walk the Bund riverside district to get a taste of old Shanghai.

Lisa, and her assistant Melody, are two terrific tour guides. They both know Shanghai very well and could answer any question we had. We engaged Lisa for 3 days. Our first day with Melody was a general tour of Shanghai to familiarize us with the town. Melody walked us along the Bund and told us all about the history of Shanghai and its buildings. She also introduced us to Yuyuan Gardens, the French Concession and an area of old residential hutongs. Along the way, Melody found several great places to snack and have lunch. Lisa took us on two separate day trips to the # 1 silk factory and three different water towns with their nearby gardens. These two women are friendly, speak good English and are absolute professionals. They tailored our visits to suit our personal tastes and we were very pleased with them. They also know the best local restaurants to eat in during the tours....great food at reasonable prices. We highly recommend their services.
