• Lujiazui - Lujiazui serves as the centerpiece of Shanghai’s skyline, featuring the Oriental Pearl and the “big three” (Shanghai Tower, SWFC, Jin Mao). With its glassy rivers, elevated circular walkways, and waterfront promenades, it offers the city’s most futuristic view. Visit during the day for clear details, and stay for the enchanting blue hour and night lights. The IFC Mall and riverside path provide a blend of financial landmarks, trendy retail, and river views all in one location.
• Site of the Second National Congress of Communist Party of China - This tour includes a lunch break—please see the details below.

Nestled within classic shikumen lane-houses, the Site of the First National Congress of the CPC offers a vivid glimpse into Shanghai’s modern history. In 1921, a discreet meeting in an ordinary living room set the stage for significant events. Inside, restored interiors, original-style displays, photos, and documents bring the neighborhood’s architecture and the city’s transformation to life.

After the tour, the guide will confirm lunch arrangements with you. You can choose to enjoy a proper meal at a nearby Shanghai-style restaurant or opt for a quick and simple lunch. Please note that the guide and driver will arrange their own lunch.

• Former French Concession - The Former French Concession is not just a single street but a walkable tapestry: plane-tree boulevards, shikumen lanes, villas beside Art-Deco apartments—a blend of history and modern living. Expect indie cafés, tasteful boutiques, and pocket gardens around every corner, with a relaxed “Haipai” elegance in the bricks and balconies. Plane trees, café aromas, and lane-house breezes along century-old facades—this is the charm of the Former French Concession.
• Nanjing Lu (Nanjing Road) - This tour includes a dinner break—please see the details below.

From daytime hustle to neon nights, Nanjing Road combines time-honored brands with modern energy in one stroll. Walk the pedestrian strip where vintage facades meet glossy malls. It’s great by day and photo-perfect after dusk. Visit Century Square for group photos, sample traditional snacks, then continue to the Bund for a classic finale.

After the visit, the guide will discuss dinner arrangements with you. You may choose to enjoy a meal at a nearby Shanghai specialty restaurant or opt for a quick, casual bite. Please note that the guide and chauffeur will have their own dinner independently.

• The Bund (Wai Tan) - Stroll along the riverfront where heritage facades meet Pudong’s towers across the water.
