This private tour covers Shanghai's top 5 highlights in one day: Shanghai Tower, Yu Garden, the Jade Buddha Temple, the French Concession and the Bund. A professional guide just for your group meets you in your hotel lobby, and you travel by metro or private vehicle depending on the option you book. Tickets for the Shanghai Tower observation deck, Yu Garden and the Jade Buddha Temple are included, so there is no need to buy tickets on site. For lunch, you can try shengjian bao (pan-fried buns), a local Shanghai specialty.

Meet your guide in the lobby of your downtown Shanghai hotel at your requested time to begin the tour. Depending on the option you book, you travel by metro or private vehicle. Shanghai's metro is clean and fast, and is sometimes even quicker than a car. You can choose a guide who speaks English, Spanish, French, Italian or German.

Built in 1559, Yu Garden is the largest and best-known historic garden in Shanghai. The bazaar next to it is filled with small shops selling souvenirs, handicrafts, folk crafts and packaged snacks.

Built during the Qing dynasty, the Jade Buddha Temple is one of the most famous Buddhist temples in Shanghai. It houses two Buddha statues, one seated and one reclining, made of jade brought across the sea from Myanmar (Burma). Admire the temple's architecture while your guide explains its history and stories.

After a lunch of shengjian bao (pan-fried buns), a local Shanghai dish, go up to the observation deck of Shanghai Tower, the tallest building in China, for a view over the city. In the late afternoon, take a walk through the French Concession and along the Bund. At the end of the tour, your guide takes you back to your hotel, and you are free to keep exploring the Bund area in the evening if you like.
※ Opening hours of attractions may change according to official notices, and the order of visits will be adjusted accordingly.
※ If Shanghai Tower cannot be visited due to bad weather, it will be replaced with Shanghai Museum East.
