About Me

Dear Travelers,

Thanks for finding me here. I am a professional tour guide based in Shanghai. I am also intimately familiar with its nearby cities such as Hangzhou, Suzhou, and Nanjing.

I am from Sanming, Fujian Province, which is a beautiful city surrounded by green mountains and small rivers. Because of my upbringing, I have the inner-strength and calm of the mountains and the sweet and delicate grace of the brooks. During my childhood, I lived with my grandfather which taught me to become a good listener to wise people around me. I have the gentle ability to get along with people from all walks of life.

I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree from Shanghai Tourism University and already have 7 years experience of being a professional tour guide. I love and enjoy this occupation. Being a professional tour guide enables me to meet and make new friends from all around the world and learn about them and their cultures. In return, I am so happy to introduce my country to everyone who wants to learn about my culture.

I lived in USA for almost three years. Because of my love of travel, I have visited many cities and seen many wonderful sites. I also visited Europe a few times as well. From this background, I have a better understanding of what foreign guests would like their China experience to be. My clients tell me I speak English very fluently with a robust vocabulary, due to my time spend in USA.

Whether for a slow relaxed tour or a fast-paced adventure, as your patient and loyal guide and friend, I prefer to help you spend a happy and memorable holiday in China. Once, one of my tourist friends said to me: Tifa, you always smile to us, we really like and enjoy it, sweet but straightforward, because of your good faith, we are also infected, you are a trusted friend!

Please feel free to contact me with any questions and I will reply promptly!

Thank you with my best wishes & love!

Tifa Wu

We had a great day tour with Tifa to Tongli water village. The whole experience exceeded our expectations - Tifa is a very personable, caring and knowledgeable guide who went extra miles to make this tour the highlight of our trip to China!  My husband and I would not hesitate to recommend Tifa to anyone looking for a great tour guide in Shanghai and area.

"I employed Tifa to work with a large group of 30 Australian Chefs' on a food tour to Shanghai. It was a 10 day trip and full of difficult logistics and visits to numerous locations across the city. Tifa did a great job as it was a extremely demanding schedule and a large group. Our group found Tifa friendly and helpful and they all enjoyed the trip".

I booked Tifa for three days and I couldn't choose a better guide. She showed me not only the most famous attractions of the city, but also some places where tourists usually don't go. She is very kind and helpful, very knowledgeable about chinese culture and a nice person to talk to. If I went back to Shanghai, I would book her again.

My wife and I recently spent five days in Shanghai with Tifa as our tour guide. We are usually individual travellers not really in need of being guided. But coming to a Chinese city of those dimensions we thought it might be a wise decision to have somebody by our side. And honestly, it was the best decision ever. Shanghai can be visited under your own steam, of course. But within such a short timespan you would never ever have the slightest chance of doing so much and seeing exactly the stuff you wanted to without a professional guide. And yes, professional she was. Tifa, our Shanghai guide, who prepared our trip perfectly well in advanced and made sure we would have the best Shanghai experience you could possibly think of. Together with Tifa we learned incredibly much about both history and current trends in China and in Shanghai. Everything was spot-on. The train tickets, the cab rides, you name it. Tifa had it all. Thanks to Tifa our Shanghai trip was so much more than just sightseeing. It was an amazing, unique, individual and after all very personal close-up view of one of the most fascinating cities we have ever been to. Hopefully we will see you again one day and thanks again for a terrific time!

She is extremely professional in everything she do. Suggested and discussed a program that was planned and agreed prior to my trip. She really knows what to see and experience in the metropol of Shanghai. She speaks perfect English and is very fun and interesting to spend time together with. I can strongly recommend Tifa to anybody in need of professional assistance and guiding during their stay in Shanghai. She really made my trip a memory for life!
