Op het oostelijke deel van Nanjing Road duiken we diep in de bruisende drukte van het dagelijks leven door het authentieke Shanghai-ontbijt en de Kantonese Changfen te proeven om de dag als een local van stroom te voorzien.
Na het opladen met het droomontbijt van de stad. We schakelen van versnelling en stappen in de machinekamer die Shanghai dagelijks draaiende houdt — de natte markt in de buurt waar Shanghai's echte smaak wordt gemaakt. Het wordt een Full-Sensory winkelen ervaring voor u!
Welkom op Nanjing Road - beroemd genoemd China's No. 1 Commercial Street, een straat die het verhaal van de moderne Chinese handel vertelt. Een eeuw geleden werd het gedefinieerd door zijn 'Vier Grote Warenhuizen'.Ze creëerden het idee van de moderne winkelen ervaring in China. Wandel hier vandaag, en je bent getuige van de evolutie ervan. Je vindt er wereldwijde reuzen als Apple en Huawei. 's Werelds grootste Pop Mart vertegenwoordigt een nieuw hoofdstuk. Deze hebben laten zien hoe Nanjing Road zich voortdurend aanpast, van grote warenhuizen tot ervaringsgerichte retail.
Da Hu Chun is het hoofdkwartier van een echte Shanghai culinaire legende en maakt al meer dan 90 jaar shengjianbao. Het is niet zomaar een oude winkel. Al jaren op rij wordt het aanbevolen door de prestigieuze Michelin Gids, die de titel “Bib Gourmand” heeft gekregen voor het aanbieden van uitzonderlijke kwaliteit tegen een zeer vriendelijke prijs. Dit maakt het een authentiek stukje van Shanghai's eetcultuur, genoten door zowel de lokale bevolking als beroemde bezoekers (zoals Apple's Tim Cook), midden in het hart van de oude stad.
Voltooid in 1869, is de Heilige Drievuldigheidskerk de oudste en beroemdste Anglicaanse kerk in Shanghai. Meer dan een eeuw lang was het het spirituele en sociale hart van de Britse gemeenschap in de Internationale Nederzetting. Zijn uitgesproken uitstraling, met de scherpe spits en het kleurrijke glas-in-lood, maakte het tot een belangrijke bezienswaardigheid. In tegenstelling tot veel gebouwen aan de Bund was het geen bank of handelshuis – het was een plaats van vrede en gemeenschap te midden van de drukke handelswijk. Na te zijn gerestaureerd, staat het vandaag als een rustige herinnering aan het diverse religieuze leven van het oude Shanghai.
Shanghai is waar de moderne media van China werd geboren. De "Press and Publishing Street" (Hankou Road) is al meer dan 150 jaar de kop van China. In de vroege jaren 1900 was dit de verborgen motor van ideeën – waar kranten, tijdschriften en revolutionaire pamfletten werden geboren.
Welkom in Shanghai's "Snack Power Walk" zone. Hier grijpen we, kauwen we, en blijven we bewegen — net als de lokale bevolking. Vervolgens een trio klassiekers die straateten definiëren. Hier zie je ook rijen lamskarkassen, de glimmende haken... voelt het niet alsof we rechtstreeks in het hart van een Marokkaanse souk of Istanbul's Grand Bazaar zijn geteleporteerd? Dit stuk weg is beroemd om zijn Halal vleeswinkels, een bewijs van Shanghai's diverse culinaire wandtapijten.
De Xing Guan (Est. 1883) is een hoeksteen van de authentieke Shanghai (Benbang) keuken. Al bijna 150 jaar zijn de afhaalbalies dé plek in de stad voor klassieke gerechten zoals roodgesmoord varkensvlees, dronken kip en vakkundig gemaakte soepknoedels. Het vertegenwoordigt het tijdloze, hartig-zoete hart van de Shanghainese eetcultuur.
Xinghualou, een van de meest legendarische culinaire instellingen van Shanghai. Opgericht in 1851 door Guangdong inboorlingen, bracht het authentieke Kantonese dim sum naar Shanghai. In de loop der generaties is het geëvolueerd door die technieken te mengen met lokale Shanghainese smaken, waardoor een unieke ‘Oost-ontmoet-West, Zuid-ontmoet-Noord’ stijl is ontstaan die we nu ‘Haipai’ (Shanghai-stijl) Kantonese keuken noemen. Het is niet alleen een restaurant; het is een levend museum van hoe Shanghai culturen absorbeert en aanpast.

An excellent and very comprehensive tour of Shanghai, Jane, the guide, was very kind and attentive to us. She took us to very good places and explained the interests of both Shanghai and China very well. 10/10!!!

I had a great walk around Shanghai and eating breakfast dishes. The communication before the trip was helpful. I knew exactly where to meet Jane. The food stops were tasty and definitely filling! I also really enjoyed the history of the area in between stops. I think my favorite item was the egg wrap around a youtiao donut.
Dear Explorer, Thank you so much for your 5-star review! I'm really glad you enjoyed the walk, the breakfast stops, and the history in between. It's great to hear that the pre‑trip communication helped you find Jane without any trouble. And yes – the egg wrap with youtiao is a local classic; I'm thrilled it was your favorite! Your kind words mean a lot to us. We'd love to have you back for another tasty adventure in Shanghai someday! Kind regards Monster Day Tours Team
I thoroughly enjoyed Jane’s Shanghai food tour. We started the morning with a delicious variety of local favourites, including egg rolls, fried dough with scallions, soy milk, sheng jian bao, noodles, xiao long bao, and lamb skewers, before ending with a lovely dessert. What made the tour special was the balance between eating and exploring. Jane led us through People’s Park, giving us time to digest while sharing interesting insights into Shanghai’s history. The walking pace was comfortable, and she never rushed us. It was a wonderful combination of great food, a pleasant stroll, and local culture. Highly recommended!
Dear Explorer, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We‘re truly happy you enjoyed the tour with Jane – from the delicious breakfast bites to the relaxing stroll through People's Park. You captured exactly what we hope to offer: great food, local stories, and a comfortable pace. Jane will be thrilled to hear your kind words. Really appreciate your recommendation, and we'd love to explore more of Shanghai with you again someday! Kind Regards， Monster Day Tours Team
We had such a great time today. Jane took us to a lot of great places and we ate so much food.! We now also know where to go during our next days here. Highly recommend!
Dear Explorer, Thank you so much for choosing us! So glad you had such a delicious and fun day with Jane! 🍜 Nothing better than leaving a tour not just full—but with a plan for the rest of your trip. Thanks for the high recommendation, and happy exploring (and eating!) for the days ahead. Warmly, The Monster Day Tours Team
Far from an ideal beginning with technical issues causing a mix up with my booking - the undeniable commitment to service excellence coupled with a "can do" attitude of this tour operator - resulted in a guide racing across Shanghai to my location for an unscheduled private tour just for me. Impressive ! The tour itself consisted of a perfect blend of hidden "hole in the wall" gems to popular local cafes to established quality restaurants. The first stop and possibly my favourite was for the Jianbing - chinese crepe. A piping hot parcel of flavour that looks too simple for the taste sensation it delivers. Don't be put off by the queue - it only confirms you are on a winner. Jane reassuringly advises it is the only stop that requires queuing - everywhere else is virtually instant taste bud gratification. The Shanghai staples of Xiaolongbao and Shengjinbao do not disappoint and my standards are high. The bbq lamb skewer was another highlight for me - literally eating while standing by the road side. The meat was so tender and succulent it causes a salivary response just writing about it. Fittingly the tour ends with tea and sweets at a Cantonese restaurant. Although predominantly food focused the tour is interspersed with a stroll through People's Park and much interesting information about Shanghai, its people, the culture and of course its remarkable history. Shanghai is a wonderful city and many tours I am sure can provide a memorable introduction to it and the food especially. Monster Tours however is one group I can vouch for goes the extra mile to ensure not only your tummy is full but you leave with inspired memories borne from their genuine passion and desire to showcase their city. Thank you and well done Jane !

We are so glad that our team’s "can do" attitude and genuine passion for service turned your experience into something memorable.

Thank you for trusting Monster Tours. Your recognition inspires us to continue sharing the real, beautiful, and delicious side of China and Shanghai with more travellers from around the world. We truly hope to welcome you again one day. Until then, safe travels and warmest wishes from all of us. With sincere gratitude, The Monster Tours Team & Jane
We joined Jane's 3.5 hour brunch/lunch tour. She was great -- friendly, knowledge and flexible. Highly recommend if you're in Shanghai, even if only for a short stay.

Your feedback means a lot — and we will definitely keep your suggestion in mind. Hope to see you again next time! Cheers， Monster Day Tours Shanghai
Booking the Shanghai Flavours & Culture Tour with our friend group was easily one of the best parts of our trip. Within minutes we were standing on the street eating soup dumplings and laughing over who nearly burned their tongue first. Walking through People's Park while locals were out doing their morning routines made the whole experience feel real and grounded, not touristy. Our guide, Sophia, made everything flow effortlessly. She was warm, knowledgeable, and never scripted and more like a local friend showing us her favorite breakfast spots. With Monster Day Tours handling all the logistics, we skipped the usual confusion at busy stalls and even snagged seats at places we never could’ve managed alone, including Dexingguan. What I loved most was how natural it all felt, weaving through backstreets, sharing scallion pancakes straight from the griddle, and comparing our favorite bites as we went. By the end, we weren’t just full; we felt genuinely connected to the city. For a trip with friends, it was the perfect mix of fun, flavor, and authenticity.
Dear Explorer， Thanks so much for sharing this! We're so happy to hear the Shanghai Flavours & Culture Tour was such a highlight for your group. Sophia sounds like she did an amazing job showing you around like a local friend — from those first soup dumplings to hidden gems like Dexingguan. We love that you got to experience the real, everyday rhythm of the city through its food and morning vibes. Thanks for choosing Monster Day Tours — hope to explore more flavors with you next time. Kind Regards， Monster Day Tours Shanghai
The tour was a memorable experience for us as a couple. It felt like we were discovering a hidden side of Singapore through the lens of authentic Shanghai cuisine. We loved how the tour blended incredible flavours with cultural storytelling where every dish had a history, and every stop had its own unique atmosphere. Our guide, Sophia, made the morning feel effortless and personal. She navigated the busy spots with ease, shared stories that brought the heritage behind the food to life, and made us feel completely at home. It didn’t feel like a standard food tour, it felt like being shown around by a knowledgeable friend who genuinely loves what she does. The pacing was perfect for us as a couple, relaxed enough to enjoy each bite and conversation, yet packed with variety. Highly recommend this experience for anyone wanting more than just a meal as it’s a true cultural journey.
Dear Explorer, The best tours don't just show you a place—they give you a feeling you carry home. Sophia was genuinely touched reading your words. She said guiding you both through Shanghai's morning rhythm felt effortless because you brought such curiosity and warmth to every stop. We love that you experienced this not just as a food tour, but as a cultural journey shared together as a couple. The way you describe it—discovering a hidden side of the city through authentic flavors, with history woven into every bite—is exactly the magic we hope to create. Thank you for trusting us with your morning, and for reminding us why we do what we do. Cheers, Monster Day Tours Shanghai
The Shanghai Flavours & Culture MDT is an experience simply shouldn’t be missed. Rather than being ushered mechanically from one stop to the next, I was immersed in the vibrant rhythm of Shanghai’s morning life. From the excitement of snagging the legendary egg crepe at a buzzing street stall to wandering hidden lanes with warm pancake in hand, every moment felt special. Each stop peeled back another layer of the city: the famous line at the International Hotel, the peaceful everyday scenes in the park, and the energetic, meat-lover’s haven of Zhejiang Road. The whole experience felt authentic and delightfully unpolished. Our guide, Alice, felt less like a tour leader and more like a well-connected local, sharing Shanghai’s best-kept culinary secrets. This tour offers genuine, unscripted delight and a true sense of the city’s heartbeat—an essential experience for inquisitive travelers.
Dear Explorer, What a beautiful snapshot of a Shanghai morning! Reading your words, I could almost smell the scallion pancakes and feel the quiet magic of those hidden lanes. We're so glad the tour felt like a genuine discovery rather than just a checklist—that's exactly the kind of connection we aim for. Alice will be over the moon to know she came across as a well-connected local (because honestly, that's what she is!). Thank you for letting us be part of your Shanghai story. Safe travels, and may your next adventure be just as delicious! Best Regards, Monster Day Tours Shanghai
As a fellow Asian traveler, this tour offered a profound depth. I appreciated the reverence for heritage, like the century-old recipes at Xinghualou, alongside the vibrant street energy. It wasn't just about taste, but about understanding the “why” behind each dish and its place in local life. The respect for food craft and history was deeply resonant. A insightful journey into the heart of Shanghai's culinary culture.
Dear Explorer， Thank you for this thoughtful review. As fellow Asian travelers, your understanding of the "why" behind each dish means the world to us. We're so glad the heritage of Xinghualou and the energy of the streets came through in a way that resonated deeply. Hope to welcome you again for more culinary discoveries. Cheers！ Kind Regards， Monster Day Tours Shanghai
