Alternative Customized Tour 

We want to help change the way people travel - experience the local life as it is, not how mass tourism companies masquerade it. 

Ideas behind Shanghai Pathways:

We want to help change the way people travel - experience the local life as it is, not how mass tourism companies masquerade it. People who live in the destination know their place inside out. That’s why we believe only locals can provide you with local activities that are REAL, things to do that don’t appear in any travel guide.

Tell us what you like and we make plans for you. The 7hours Custom tour is guided by Janny Chyn - the founder and owner of Shanghai Pathways, tour can be tailored to your requirements, both in terms of what you see and the time of day that you do it. In order to have a perfect tailor made trip, we wish to know about your interests and back ground. Your length of stay, areas of interest, group size, and times available are all important in deciding what type of experience would be best suited to your schedule. Upon these info, we can work with you to produce a custom tour based on your specific interests and needs. Simply consider us a living database of information on the city. We have an extensive network of connections that will allow you to find and do what you want, as efficiently as possible.
