Magnífica visita a Shanghái
Nuestra estancia en Shanghái ha sido fantástica. En gran medida gracias a Francisco, nuestro extraordinario y muy amable guía. Para empezar es bilingue "de verdad" (chino / espa?ol), pero es que, además, sus comentarios son precisos y rigurosos. !Y qué decir de su detalle final! more

Ciudad imprescindible de visitar
Nuestra experiencia en Shanghái fue increíble, en gran parte gracias a nuestro guía, Francisco. Siempre atento y disponible, nos acompa?ó por los lugares más emblemáticos de la ciudad: el Jardín de Yuyuan, el Templo del Buda de Jade, la Concesión Francesa (especialmente el barrio Xintiandi), el famoso Bund y la impresionante Torre de Shanghái, donde subimos hasta el mirador para disfrutar de una vista panorámica inolvidable. Sus recomendaciones fueron excelentes, especialmente en lo culinario donde probamos platos típicos en restaurantes auténticos que no habríamos encontrado por nuestra cuenta. more

A trip for the history books!
Kenny was an absolutely amazing guide. She told us about the history of Shanghai and a lot of the wonderful sights. She also was able to quickly make changes to tour arrangements on the fly due to weather. more
