Great experience

Sunny was so helpful especially when I got clothing made at the silk market. With her help I knew I was working with a good tailor and getting a fair price. Thanks Sunny!!

Great trip with Sunny

My shopping trip with Sunny was excellent. She customized the trip for my needs and we were able to get everything I wanted. Her English is fluent, and the car and driver were great. Will be calling her again next time I'm in Shanghai.

Highlight of my trip to Shanghai

I 100% recommend this tour with Sunny, along with the fancy car and great driver (who will hold and keep an eye on your shopping bags)!!! This is a fun and luxurious experience, and Sunny knew where I could find everything I wanted and helped me find incredible deals. From my five star hotel through this shopping trip, I had the early birthday celebration of my dreams. Sunny is friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient, and she will help you bargain. And her English is excellent!!! I will definitely book another tour with her when I’m back in Shanghai.

Will always use Sunny when I'm in shanghai!

Sunny was fantastic, I honestly never would have been able to do this without her! Impossible to find without her, she helped source and negotiate fair pricing for what I was looking for, she even met me there the folling day to buy more. AND she helped me at the local grocery store!

Best shopping tour guide in Shanghai

Sunny is the best shopping guide in Shanghai. She knows what she’s doing and more importantly if you don’t know the city where she is going and where to get top-quality items at reasonable prices.

A fantastic experience- worth doing

We saw this on TripAdvisor and thought it might be a fun way to see ‘how to shop’ in Shanghai. Sunny was a fantastic choice. From the minute we booked Sunny was in touch checking out what we wanted to see, this was a great start. She was on time, with a ‘Sunny’ cheery smile and brought a great driver with a lovely new vehicle. We started at a tailor, all measured up - and fabrics chosen to remake my favourites, we even mastered AliPay with Sunny’s help! Then we went on to find some new glasses for me. This wasn’t on the original itinerary, but no problem, it was easily added in. I have never seen so many frames! The place Sunny took us to spent a good amount of time testing my eyes and also checked the change in my current specs to what I needed now (2 years). While they were making my new glasses we went off to find a case for my phone, so many to choose from! Handbags next! It could be a bit overwhelming, but the expert was there to guide us through. No pressure to buy and nothing too much trouble. However, when we got into the car for the 30 minute journey to our hotel, the driver turned on the back massage function in our seats. Sheer bliss and a perfect end to an amazing half day out! Thank you Sunny 10 stars!

Shopping tour in Shanghai

We spent a rainy day in Shanghai with Sunnyerday on a shopping tour by private car. She was amazing and helped us bargain and understand the quality of the jade and pearls that interested us.

This was not my first...

This was not my first time in Shanghai, so I already had a very clear idea of what I wanted to see and what I was hoping to buy. We booked a private shopping tour with Feifei — and it exceeded all expectations. Feifei was absolutely amazing. She was incredibly flexible and fully adjusted the day to our specific needs and preferences. Since I already knew the city fairly well, I didn’t want a standard tourist route — and she completely understood that. She curated the day around exactly what we were looking for, making everything seamless, efficient, and enjoyable. Beyond being knowledgeable and organized, she was simply a delight to spend time with — warm, engaging, and genuinely invested in making sure we had a great experience. I actually took a similar shopping tour in Shanghai about eight years ago, and I didn’t feel nearly as impressed as I did this time. The difference was remarkable. We enjoyed our first day with Feifei so much that we booked a second day tour for out-of-town sightseeing — and that was absolutely terrific as well. Everything was smooth, well planned, and tailored to us. If you’re looking for a personalized, high-quality experience in Shanghai — especially if you’ve been before and want something more curated — I highly recommend Feifei.
