A Little About Me Before becoming a tour guide, I worked as a secretary in market research. This experience taught me how to organize trips, work with international visitors and solve unexpected situations. I hold a National Tour Guide Certificate and I am also TESOL certified. Besides private tours, I also help business visitors with meeting arrangements, translation services and travel planning throughout China. Why Choose Me? My guests often tell me they like my tours because they are: ✔ Flexible ✔ Well organized ✔ Relaxed and enjoyable ✔ Based on their interests ✔ A good mix of famous attractions and local life ✔ Suitable for couples, families, business travelers and small private groups I enjoy showing visitors not only the famous places, but also the Shanghai where local people live, work and relax. Transportation To keep my tours flexible and affordable, transportation is usually not included. In downtown Shanghai, the Metro and taxis are often the fastest and most convenient way to travel. They also give you the chance to experience the city like a local. If you prefer more comfort, I can arrange a private car with a professional driver. Luxury Shore Excursions always include private transportation. Tour Prices Please see the individual tour pages for prices. Luxury Shore Excursions are all-inclusive.
