Which tour is right for me?
If you are a family with young children we recommend a private tour as we can adapt the pace & the content for you. The "Good morning Shanghai" will be a great introduction to the local Shanghai with more interactions on the way.
If you are a single, or couple, or local expat we recommend the shared Good morning Shanghai or Shanghai by night tours.

Approximately 4hours (7km) for the "Good morning Shanghai" tour and about 9-10km for the Shanghai by night tour, in 3.5hours
These are two totally different routes, with very different stops and content.
