Tour Style:
This 2-day private tour covers Shanghai at a pace built for families with children. The plan pairs the main sights - the Bund, Yuyuan Garden, and the Oriental Pearl Tower - with places kids can take part in, like the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum and the LEGOLAND Discovery Center. A private guide and car move the family between stops, so you are not working out the metro with strollers or tired children. Tickets for the paid venues are arranged ahead of time. It is a two-day introduction to the city that gives adults the landmarks and the children something to do besides look.

However you reach Shanghai, your guide is there to meet you, holding a Your Way Holiday sign at the airport arrivals gate or the train station exit. They take your bags and drive you to your hotel, pointing out the city as you go so the first hour is not only a transfer. Once you have checked in and dropped your things, the day proper begins.

The day opens on the Bund, the 1.5 kilometre riverside promenade where Shanghai kept its foreign banks and trading houses. The row of buildings runs from the 1890s to the 1930s in styles stacked end to end, Gothic, neoclassical, Baroque, and Art Deco, which is why the stretch is often called a museum of world architecture. Across the Huangpu River rises Lujiazui, the glass side of the same story, with the Jin Mao Tower at 421 metres from 1999, the World Financial Center at 492 metres from 2008, and the Shanghai Tower at 632 metres from 2015. Your guide sets both banks in context and shows you where the light works best for a photo before you move on.


Next comes Nanjing Road, the shopping spine of the city. Its eastern mile was closed to traffic and made a walkway in 1999, and it still holds the grand department store buildings from the 1910s and 1920s next to the neon signs and flagship shops. If you want the older side of Shanghai, your guide can point out a traditional tea house or a silk shop, and the snack stalls along the way sell sesame balls, scallion pancakes, and soup dumplings. There is no pressure to buy anything, because the street is worth walking for the crowd and the shop windows alone.


Lunch is at a local restaurant your guide picks around what you and the kids feel like eating and any dietary needs. Two honest Shanghai dishes come up often: scallion oil noodles, plain wheat noodles tossed with oil fried slowly with spring onion and soy, and Shanghai braised fish, still called smoked fish even though it is actually soy-marinated and pan-fried so the outside crisps while the inside stays soft. Your guide orders, explains what each dish is, and keeps the meal relaxed rather than rushed.


In the afternoon you walk into Yuyuan Garden, which a Ming official named Pan Yunduan laid out in 1559 as a place for his retired parents. It is a compact garden of rockeries, ponds, and carved pavilions, and its best known single object is the tall perforated Taihu boulder at its centre, weathered full of holes. Right outside, the Yuyuan Bazaar sells tea, snacks, and small crafts, and this is where the soup dumplings of Nanxiang are usually eaten. Your guide helps you find your way through the lanes and flags the stalls worth stopping at.


Tianzifang is the old lane-house quarter on Taojiang Lane near Fuxing Road, kept as narrow Shikumen alleys but filled now with small studios, shops, and cafes. It grew in the 2000s when artists moved into the lanes, and the mix of brick gateways, iron balconies, and workshop signs is the reason people walk it. If the group would rather do something than look, some studios run short hands-on sessions in pottery or Chinese painting, and your guide can book one on the spot or leave the time open for browsing and tea.

.
At the close of the day your guide drives you back to your hotel, or to whichever drop-off you arranged, since pick-up and drop-off here can be the hotel, the station, or the airport. Before you go in, they give you a short list for the evening, a place to eat, a riverside walk, or something the kids can still spend energy on. Day two moves east across the river to the towers and the museum stops.
After breakfast your guide takes you across the river to the Oriental Pearl Tower, the 468 metre structure with the stacked spheres on the Lujiazui side, opened in 1994. Its name comes from a Tang dynasty poem line about large and small pearls falling onto a jade plate. You ride the lift to the observation deck above 250 metres, where the Bund sits on one side of the river and the new towers on the other, and if the group is up for it there is a glass-floored walkway to stand on. At the base, a small Shanghai history museum fills in how the city grew from a walled county town to a treaty port and a financial centre.


The Science and Technology Museum is the stop the kids usually rate the highest, and it is built to be touched rather than looked at. The halls run through robots that play chess and move on stages, a space section with the Chinese rocket and capsule models and a launch simulator, an earth and fossils gallery, and a hands-on area for younger children with simple physics and engineering benches at their height. Some days run a short workshop or craft session, and your guide checks what is open when you arrive and gets the children into it. It is a big building, so your guide sets a route instead of letting everyone wander the floors at random.


Lunch is at a family-friendly restaurant near the museum, and your guide orders so nobody sits with an empty plate while you work out the menu. Two Shanghai dishes travel well to children: lion head meatballs, large soft pork meatballs stewed until they soak up a light broth, usually with a few green leaves in the bowl, and yellow croaker noodles, a fillet of mild fish over silky noodles in a clear stock. Ordering several plates to share, the way locals eat, means everyone gets a bit of everything rather than one big dish they might not finish.


The afternoon moves to the indoor LEGO Discovery Center, made for exactly the age that still builds things for hours. The Miniland room recreates Shanghai landmarks, the Pearl Tower and stretches of the Bund included, out of bricks, and the build areas let children take part in a timed challenge or a themed workshop with a model-maker. There is a small 4D cinema with wind and water effects, and a track where you test a car you built yourself. Your guide handles the timing and the entry so the family works through the zones without queueing twice.


Your guide keeps the day on schedule between stops, fills in the background at each place, and handles the small logistics like directions and ordering so the parents are not doing all of it. When the visit wraps, your private driver takes you where you need to go next. On this tour the drop-off can be your hotel, the train station, or the airport, the same three options as the pick-up, so tell your guide in advance which one you want.
It is built for families. Day 1 is a lot of walking through the Bund, Nanjing Road, Yuyuan Garden, and the Tianzifang lanes, so it suits children who can handle a few hours on foot, and a stroller is workable but the crowds get tight in the bazaar. Day 2 is the easier day for small kids because the museum and the LEGO center are set up for hands-on play.
The package is two days with one night in a Shanghai hotel. Each sightseeing day runs at a full-day pace, roughly mid-morning to late afternoon, with transfers handled by the guide and driver. Your guide can start earlier or later to fit the hotel or the flight if you set that when you book.
The private guide and a private car for the sightseeing days are included, along with the arrival and departure transfers between the hotel, station, or airport. Entrance fees and the sit-down meals are the two lines people ask about most, and whether they are bundled in depends on the quote you receive, so confirm those two items with your consultant before you book.
Anywhere of three in Shanghai, your hotel, the train station, or the airport, the same set at both ends of the trip. Your guide waits at arrivals or the station exit with a Your Way Holiday sign and takes your bags to the car.
Yes, it is a private tour rather than a fixed bus schedule. Families who would rather not spend the whole second day inside museums can swap one museum for the Shanghai Tower, the zoo, or an extra block of time at the Bund or a river cruise, and the guide reshuffles the rest of the day around it.
Comfortable shoes for the walking, a light jacket for the open observation deck on the Pearl Tower where it gets breezy, and a portable charger for the phone photos. If a child needs a stroller, bring or rent one for Day 1 and leave it with the driver during the museum and LEGO hours.
Shanghai is a city with a multicultural blend. It has many famous tourist attractions, such as the Bund, Yuyuan Garden and Nanjing road pedestrian street. However, it will be crowded in the peak seasons.

Traveled with our two kids aged 10 and 13 and were worried they would find Shanghai overwhelming. Our guide made it an adventure for them. Day one we did the bund and then a rickshaw ride through the old lanes which the kids loved. Day two was disneyland and she knew all the shortcuts. She kept the pace relaxed with plenty of snack breaks and ice cream stops. Driver had charging cables and wifi in the van. Kids asked if we could extend the trip.
Our 1-day Shanghai tour covering The Bund, Yuyuan Garden, Tianzifang and Oriental Pearl Tower with Your Way Holiday was pure magic—thanks to guide Andy!
Andy explained the colonial history of The Bund’s buildings, pointed out hidden tea houses in Yuyuan Garden’s alleys, and shared how Tianzifang evolved from old lanes to a hip art hub. At the Oriental Pearl Tower, he skipped the long ticket lines (a total game-changer!) and recommended the best floor for skyline photos. No rushed schedules, just perfect pacing to soak in each place. Your Way Holiday’s itinerary was well-balanced—mixing history, culture, and modern vibes seamlessly. 10/10 would recommend for first-time visitors!

Loved our Your Way Holiday tour with Andy, blending Tianzifang’s old-world charm, Oriental Pearl’s futuristic views, and Shanghai Science and Technology Museum’s innovation.
Andy’s tips made all the difference: he showed us a hidden pottery shop in Tianzifang where we made our own souvenirs, explained the science behind the museum’s space exhibits in simple terms, and even recommended a rooftop bar near The Bund for post-tour drinks with skyline views. The tour balanced walking and transportation perfectly—no tired feet!
Your Way Holiday knows how to showcase Shanghai’s dual personality. Highly recommended!

I had a wonderful day exploring Shanghai with Autumn, our guide, who made the experience both enjoyable and informative. Our day started with a visit to The Bund, where Autumn shared her knowledge about Shanghai’s history. Despite the bustling crowds, she ensured we got the best views of the skyline and even took us to quieter spots for photos.
From there, we made our way to Nanjing Road, which was buzzing with activity. Autumn gave us just the right amount of time to soak in the vibrant energy of the area while providing fun facts about the street’s evolution. She even pointed us to a few unique shops where we could grab some local snacks. The highlight of the day was Yuyuan Garden. Autumn's passion for the history of this peaceful spot was evident, and it was great to hear the story behind its design. It’s a perfect escape from the city’s fast pace.
On Day 2, we headed to the Oriental Pearl Tower, where Autumn took us to the observation deck for panoramic views of Shanghai’s incredible skyline. It was a great spot for photos, and the modern design of the tower added to the experience. The Shanghai Science and Technology Museum was our next stop, where we spent some time exploring the interactive exhibits. Autumn kept the group engaged, pointing out exhibits of interest and explaining the significance of the displays. To end the day on a light note, we visited the Shanghai LEGO Discovery Center. Though not the most educational stop, it was a fun and quirky way to wrap up our tour. Autumn was fantastic at making the experience enjoyable for everyone.
Throughout the two days, Autumn’s attentiveness and local knowledge ensured we had a smooth and enjoyable experience. Our driver was also excellent, and we always felt safe and comfortable. This tour is ideal for anyone looking to see the highlights of Shanghai in a short time.

At Yuyuan Garden, her detailed insights into the garden's history made the visit even more enjoyable. On Day 2, Autumn took us to the Oriental Pearl Tower, explaining the significance of the views and landmarks. Her professionalism and care made the entire experience smooth and stress-free.

Our family of three (myself, my husband, and our 10-year-old son) had an amazing time on this two-day custom tour of Shanghai. Our guide, Lily, was fantastic from the start, making the entire trip smooth and fun. We were looking for a mix of sightseeing and activities that would be interesting for both adults and kids, and Lily made sure to tailor the tour to our needs.
We started by visiting The Bund, where we were blown away by the beautiful views of the river and the city’s famous skyline. Lily explained the history behind the colonial buildings and gave us great photo opportunities. Our son loved watching the boats go by, and we all enjoyed the atmosphere.
Next, we took a walk down Nanjing Road. It was lively and full of energy, and Lily knew exactly where to stop for some local snacks. We picked up a few souvenirs along the way, and Lily helped us navigate the bustling streets easily.
Yuyuan Garden was a serene stop for us, especially after the hustle of Nanjing Road. The tranquility of the garden, combined with its beautiful architecture, was a perfect escape. Lily’s explanations about the history of the garden added to the experience, and we all enjoyed the peaceful ambiance.
On the second day, we visited the Oriental Pearl Tower, and the views from the top were incredible! Our son was fascinated by the glass floor at the top, and Lily took her time to show us around, explaining all the details of the tower’s design and history.
The Shanghai Science and Technology Museum was another highlight. It was incredibly interactive, and Lily made sure to point us toward exhibits that would keep our son engaged. It was both fun and educational, and we spent hours there.
Finally, we finished off the day at the Shanghai LEGO Discovery Center. It was an absolute hit with our son, and we were happy to relax while he had a blast building his creations. Lily made sure we had everything we needed and even gave us tips on where to grab a good meal nearby.
Overall, this private two-day tour was perfect for our family. Lily was knowledgeable, patient, and extremely accommodating, making it a trip we will never forget. Highly recommend it for families looking to explore Shanghai in a relaxed, personalized way!

We recently had a wonderful two-day family tour in Shanghai, guided by Emma, and it was perfect for our family of four with two young children. Emma did an amazing job balancing iconic sightseeing with kid-friendly activities, ensuring a memorable experience for all of us.
Our adventure began with a walk along The Bund, where we enjoyed the stunning skyline and colonial architecture. Emma shared fascinating insights, and the kids loved the photos. We then explored Nanjing Road, where Emma helped us navigate through the crowds and find local snack spots and boutiques. A highlight for the kids was Yuyuan Garden, with its peaceful gardens and koi ponds. Emma also took us to Tianzifang, a charming artsy area filled with unique shops and cafés. On day two, we visited the Oriental Pearl Tower, offering breathtaking views, followed by the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum, where the interactive exhibits kept our kids engaged.
We wrapped up with a visit to the Shanghai LEGO Discovery Center, which was a dream come true for our children. Throughout the tour, Emma was attentive, patient, and flexible, making sure the pace suited the kids' needs. This two-day tour was the perfect family getaway, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide.

We just got back from a 2-day family trip to Shanghai and it was honestly perfect for us. Our guide was fantastic—super friendly, spoke great English, and was amazing with the kids. She explained everything in such a fun and clear way that even our youngest stayed interested (which is saying something!). She also helped us skip the lines and made sure we were always comfortable.
The tour company was really easy to work with—fast replies, very flexible, and they helped us customize the schedule a bit to match our kids’ energy levels. It felt very personal, not like a cookie-cutter tour.
Our driver was also great. The car was spotless, smelled fresh, and had plenty of space for all our stuff. Most importantly, he drove smoothly and safely the whole time, even through city traffic.
The itinerary was super well-planned for families—on day one we explored the Bund, went up the Shanghai Tower for amazing views, and walked through Yu Garden, which was like a fairy tale. Day two we visited Shanghai Disneyland, which was a dream come true for the kids. Everything was timed so we could enjoy a lot without feeling rushed or tired. Highly recommend this tour if you're traveling with family and want a stress-free way to see Shanghai's highlights!
