Shanghai Specialists
Shanghai is our home. We understand the city beyond guidebooks — from historic neighbourhoods and hidden local stories to cultural traditions and modern lifestyles. We help travellers discover the authentic side of Shanghai.
Shanghai Welcome
Discover Shanghai Beyond Sightseeing
Experience Shanghai through local stories, cultural connections, and personalized journeys.
A local gateway
Shanghai Welcome is a premium inbound travel brand dedicated to helping international travellers experience Shanghai in a deeper and more meaningful way.
Shanghai is more than iconic landmarks and modern skylines. It is a city where history, culture, architecture, food, traditions, and everyday life come together.

Angie
Shanghai Welcome Guide
City walks & hidden lanes
Angie likes to start where the guidebooks stop — a lane that opens into a courtyard, a breakfast stall held by the same family for decades. She builds the day around the small, unhurried moments that make Shanghai feel like a place rather than a list.
MK
Shanghai Welcome Guide
Streets, stories & local food
MK feels less like a hired guide and more like a friend showing you his city. He will wander Shanghai's lanes and busy streets with you like a brother, but never forgets his manners — happy to take your bag and walk you through the story behind every corner and the food on every counter.
Maddy
Shanghai Welcome Guide
Art, architecture & design
Maddy's Shanghai is one of detail — the art deco line of a façade, the independent gallery tucked off a main road, the old shophouse beside the new waterfront. She reads the city's design with travellers who want its character as much as its landmarks.
Maggie
Shanghai Welcome Guide
Families & first-time visitors
Maggie keeps first trips easy and families moving at a human pace. She plans enough flexibility that a tired afternoon, or an unplanned detour, becomes the best part of the day.
Sabrina
Shanghai Welcome Guide
Heritage & neighbourhood stories
Sabrina tells Shanghai as a living story — where the concessions met, how a garden survived the centuries, and why a certain door still matters. History, in her hands, stays close to the street.
Tin
Shanghai Welcome Guide
Beyond-the-city day trips
Tin knows the water towns and tea hills within easy reach of Shanghai, and how to see them without the crowds. He treats a day trip as a small journey, not a checkbox.
