Such a fantastic tour, with Topher an excellent guide! The food was amazing, and while we walked Topher treated us to fascinating bits of history. I didn't find the amount of walking to be too much at all; given how much food there was, I thoroughly appreciated the many chances to "walk it off." A great way to experience Shanghai. Enjoy the jianbing – it's pretty life-changing, and I miss it already.

Such a great food tour!! Our guide Topher was very knowledgeable about both the food, the restaurants we were visiting, and also just Shanghai in general (we got a small history/cultural crash course as well which was super helpful). Loved the variety of food (noodles, soups, dumplings, pancakes, and more) at both literal hole in the wall places + larger joints, and as other reviews have mentioned, it was a ton of food so be sure to come hungry. Would definitely recommend this tour, I've also heard great things about their night food tour as well!

One of the best food tours I have done! Paul was an excellent tour guide - very full of information about the food, culture, and city and kept excellent pace throughout the tour. We sampled many tasty dishes at places I never would have known to try myself. This is the second Untour food tour I have taken and both have been of very high quality, I would strongly recommend. Make sure to come hungry and you will leave very satisfied! At the end of the tour Paul shared great tips and recos of other things to do in the city. You won’t regret taking this tour!

This was a great tour, combining history and local delicious food! We had this as a Team Building activity, and the whole team were thrilled by the experience. Christopher was a great guide, and the walk in the lanes of Shanghai was fantastic and with some well hidden gems. Highly recommended!

Another great experience with UnFood Tours: Paul, our guide, showed us places only a long-time resident like him could know: Small restaurants and snack shops serving the most delicious, typical and varied food. Most of the c. 10 dishes (I stopped counting) were prepared on order within minutes right in front of us. The pace of the tour was well-planned, no wait-time and no haste either. Stops were a well-balanced mix of street food and sit-down restaurants. We also gained insight from Paul into history, society, economy, culture. Paul has been a resident for many years and shares his expertise and personal experience with a great sense of humor. Fyi, we also booked the Shanghai Night Food Tour and also Breakfast and Dinner tours in Beijing with UnTour Food Tours; I posted similar reviews for these tours.
