What better way to explore this great city than by having an indigenous inhabitant tell you stories about the history and evolution of this great city! am a local Shanghainese—born, and lived here all my life. I will meet you at Exit 4 South Shaanxi Road Station (Line1/10/12), As they say, “Paris ne s’est pas faith en un jour!” (“Paris was not made in a day!”) And by the same token, neither was the French Concession of Shanghai. In 2 hours, hear captivating stories about the French Concession and its colorful past as you walk across this quaint neighborhood. Learn about the celebrities and commoners alike who once strolled down these streets, and find yourself becoming a part of the legacy of this place.The tours ends at Tianzifang, where you could drink, eat, shop at your convenience.
Highlights of the Tour:
- Middle Huaihai Road
- The Former French Club
- Old Stone Gate building
- Shanghai Culture Square
- Zhou Enlai's Former Residence & Museum
- Sinan Mansions
- Former International Courthouse
- Tianzifang
- and more!
Last minute booking possible, bookings open until the start of tour!
Having done these tours for the better part of a decade, I can usually field any history question you may have about the nation or the city, and can also offer suggestions of the best places in the city for shopping, tea, or the most memorable dining experiences with something unique to them.
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (to make the tours sustainable,the recommended tips usually range from 100yuan per person to 300yuan per person,depending on satisfaction with the tour).
I hope to see you soon,
Bill
