Our guise Elina, contacted our hotel the day before our tour to make contact. She arrived slightly before our allocated time. We wanted to see the obvious attractions, The Bund, Yu gardens, Jade Buddha temple and all these were wonderful. Elina was a friendly and informative guide who was willing to take us where we wanted to go. We went over to Pudong and drove around the financial district trying to get the best photo shots. Our driver attempted a number of times to let us out to take photos but unfortunately traffic inspectors kept waving him on. We decided to have lunch at Xintiandi which offered a great selection of eateries and we chose a great Gastro pub for lunch. We did visit a silk factory and actually found it informative...those silk quilts look amazing. The 6 of us in our group had a great day.
