Yu Garden to French Concession: Old Lanes & Street Food Tour (opens in a new tab)

4 h – 5 h

Unlike big-bus tours, this walk is capped at just 4 guests and led by a born-and-raised Shanghainese host, not a script-reading guide. You’ll get the best of both worlds: Shanghai’s iconic sights, like the classical Yu Garden and the tree-lined streets of the former French Concession, plus the hidden side only locals know. We eat where Shanghainese actually eat, in family-run shops and quiet lanes no guidebook covers, and we also stop at the city’s trendiest spots, so you won’t miss the places everyone is talking about. Along the way, you’ll learn real skills for the rest of your China trip: setting up Chinese mobile payment, riding the metro, and ordering food by yourself. It feels like exploring with a local friend, and the route flexes to whatever interests you most.
