What to Expect
Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Former French Concession, Puxi Central, Huangpu District, Shanghai 200000 China

Step back in time as you enter one of the most important monuments erected by the French. Surrounded by hundred-year-old trees, this former sports club erected in 1926 still retains the golden mosaic floors, the polished marble pillars and its legendary ballroom that made so much talk when the club opened its doors.

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Old Town (Nanshi), Huangpu District, Shanghai 200000 China

In the shadow of huge modern buildings, drive east to the typical narrow streets of the old town with its red lanterns and cobbled streets and discover the fascinating kaleidoscope of this ever-changing city. Formerly surrounded by a defensive wall, this authentic pocket of Shanghainese culture that still resists the wave of modernity will offer you in exchange a wave of nostalgia.

Park the jeep and go explore these narrow streets where street vendors, barbers or watermelon deliverers are busy. At the turn of an alley, maples, pines, magnolias, songs of birds and scrolls of incense welcome you in a charming refuge dedicated to Confucius. Dating back to the 1800s, this temple and school dedicated to Confucius worship and education also houses a busy second-hand book market, known as the "ghost market" every Sunday morning.

Duration: 30 minutes

Amazing discovery!
We were on a business trip, and decided to have a tour with Insiders - amazing idea! We got to see a different Shanghai, off the beaten path. Our driver Rémi, was very kind and knowledgeable! He took us to see some views of the city we would never had known about if it weren't…

Thank you so much for your very kind review of Sammy's ride. The Secret Ride seems a little long on paper with its 6 hours but it gets the highest feedbacks so we're delighted to know that Sammy and the team delivered to the level of your expectations. We hope that we'll get to explore roe of Shanghai (or Xian and Guilin where we also operate) with you in the future. Until then, safe travels!

Thank you Soufiane for your super nice review, it's always a pleasure to explore Shanghai with residents as you have already covered the basics and we get to explore deeper the city. We'll be waiting for your Shanghai by night ride with champagne with pleasure! Keep in mind that we also operate in Xi'an and Guilin and that returning passengers get a better deal!
