Our Swedish visitors from Biträdande Projekledare Next Step Group has the opportunity to learn Tai Chi from the master, Grandmom Long. They had hoped to do this in Fuxing Park, which would have been fantastic, but since it was raining, we moved it to the Thai Boxing Training Center. This was a lot of fun and I had the chance to participate too! Great fun and good exercise. Coming to Shanghai and interested in learning about this Tai Chi? We'd be happy to set this up for you too...and hopefully it won't be raining! :)

Thanks Josh!

Feel free to spend hundreds of renminbi to take an elevator to the top of China’s tallest building (at least the tallest building for now), but if I were you, I would consider budgeting some time to explore some of the lesser-known destinations in Shanghai.
​

Sometimes it’s fun to find your own way around Shanghai and I know most budget travelers to China will opt for this route, but when it comes to history and culture, I often advise friends to spend a little cash on a local guide to provide context to what you’re seeing. In Shanghai, there are companies like Jenny’s Shanghai Tours that can provide a memorable look around Shanghai that you’ll completely miss out on your own.
Whichever you decide, here are seven of my favorite, what I’ll call “under-appreciated destinations” in Shanghai, China.  Enjoy!


#1 Meander Through “Old Shanghai”

While you’re making a visit to the well-known Yuyuan Garden in Shanghai, budget some time to meander through “Old Shanghai”. This is a district that is filled with 100 year old homes, traditional neighborhoods and infinite stories.
The good news is that Old Shanghai is easy for visitors to find and free to walk around. There’s plenty of history hidden within these alleys: walled up homes, weird markings on the wall, etc. So fascinating! If you have learned Chinese, stop and talk with the locals. If you can’t speak Mandarin Chinese, consider walking through with a local friend or guide. You’ll love this place so much more!

We know plans change... It's Ok.

When I started Jenny's Shanghai Tours, we followed a fairly common industry practice of asking for a deposit and then charging cancellation fees if customers cancelled their tour within 7 days of their tour date. This made sense for us (and others) since we need to reserve a great car and one of our awesome guides... and if a customer cancels, they may not get to work that day. But this was not always friendly to our customers! So we changed our policy to be more customer friendly because we want to be known as having the best tour service in China... and it's just a nice thing to do. 

We still ask for a deposit of 20% to 50% depending on your tour and group, but now our super friendly cancellation policy should help ease your mind that if something happens, you won't lose your deposit!

See the table below to learn about our new policy.
