Jin Xu

We had an absolutely fantastic 12-hour private tour of Shanghai with our guide, Jin, and it was one of the highlights of our trip. Jin met us right at the airport and from the very beginning she was warm, professional, and extremely well organized. Our adventure started with a ride on the famous Maglev train from the airport into the city, which was an exciting way to begin the day. Throughout the day Jin made sure we experienced both the historic and modern sides of Shanghai. We visited the beautiful Yu Garden and explored the surrounding area, walked along the Bund with its incredible views of the skyline, and later went up the Shanghai Tower where the views of the city were simply breathtaking. Lunch was a real treat, we had soft shell turtle, a local speciality we wanted to try. Later we also took a ferry across the river , giving us another great perspective of the city. One of the most memorable moments was returning to the Bund at night to see the spectacular skyline illuminated — absolutely stunning. We came to Shanghai for this view :) To end the perfect day, Jin took us for an amazing Peking duck dinner before accompanying us the way back to the airport. Jin’s knowledge, friendliness, and attention to details made the entire day smooth, enjoyable, and unforgettable. She managed the schedule perfectly so we could see so much in just one day without ever feeling rushed. If you only have a short time in Shanghai and want to experience as much as possible, I cannot recommend Jin highly enough. She turned our layover into an incredible Shanghai experience.❤️
