Discover Shanghai beyond the surface — through history, culture, and authentic local experiences. Hello and welcome to Shanghai! My name is Elaine, and I am a licensed English-speaking National Tour Guide based in Shanghai. With a Bachelor’s degree in Tourism Management and professional training in tourism and hospitality, I am passionate about creating meaningful and personalized experiences for international travelers. I believe a great tour is not only about visiting famous landmarks, but about understanding the stories, culture, and local lifestyle behind the city. Shanghai is a fascinating place where history and modernity meet — from the historic Bund and charming Former French Concession to the impressive skyline of Lujiazui, traditional neighborhoods, local markets, and hidden streets. My private tours are thoughtfully customized around your interests, travel style, and pace. Whether you are interested in history, architecture, food, photography, or authentic local experiences, I will help you discover Shanghai beyond the typical tourist routes and experience the city from a deeper perspective. Besides Shanghai, I also offer private excursions to Zhujiajiao Water Town, where you can explore peaceful canals, traditional architecture, and a different side of Chinese culture. I welcome solo travelers, couples, families, business travelers, and cruise passengers. Although I am not a driver-guide, I can arrange reliable private transportation and assist with airport, railway station, and cruise terminal transfers when needed. Why choose me? • Licensed National English-speaking Tour Guide • Bachelor’s Degree in Tourism Management • Private and personalized experiences • Flexible itineraries designed around your interests • Shanghai and Zhujiajiao private tours • Professional transportation coordination available I look forward to sharing the stories, flavors, and unique character of Shanghai with you, and creating a memorable journey together.
