A Private Shanghai Travel Service Built Around Real Travelers

Some guests want a classic Shanghai sightseeing day. Others need airport transfers, shopping, food, business transportation, a slower family itinerary or a multi-city journey across China.

Instead of forcing every traveler into the same fixed program, Shanghai Driver Tom’s Tour focuses on private transportation and customized arrangements built around the traveler’s actual needs.

Simple idea:
Your own vehicle, your own pace and an itinerary that can be adjusted around what matters to you.
