Newman Tours does a fun and informative job with their Gangster Tour. It's a great way to be introduced to one of the most exciting cities in the world. More

I took my whole family on the gangster tour, hosted by Daniel personally (which he can always do on request). The tour is dramatic, informative, entertaining, and a beautiful walk through what used to be Shanghai. Daniel is a true professional, yet entertaining, and brings out thte best of everyone in the comfortably small groups of the tour. Learning to... More

Great Tour. I learned a lot from Daniel about the history of Shanghai, and it's characters. It was a most information tour, and the time passed far too quickly. Lunch was yummy, and before I knew it, it was time to go. I highly recommend the tour if you want to know more about Shanghai's past, and and more personal... More

Took two day tours with Daniel at Newman tours. One to Hangzhou and one to Suzhou. On both occasions Daniel proved to be friendly, informed and well organised. Our trips were really enjoyable. He was happy to tailor the tours to our particular interests and . . . well they were both excellent days. I would thoroughly recommend him. More

We went on a French concession tour recently and even though the information was interesting and the locations were beautiful we finished the 2-hour tour feeling like we over-paid. More

We used Newman tours for a couple of trips to towns outside Shanghai (Hangzhou and Suzhou) and really enjoyed them both. The day trips involved a good mix of visits to interesting places. Our guide (Daniel) really added to the experience with his knowledge of relevant history and legends. The itinerary was adapted to our needs and we were printed... More

A couple of weeks ago me and my 12 year old son joined a gangster tour through Shanghai's French Concession by night. Under Daniels knowledgable guidance we actually become gangsters ourselves learning how to be a pickpocket using chinese chopsticks and playing all sorts of dirty tricks on people. Completely immersed into the great atmosphere of the thirties in Shanghai... More

We have lived in Shanghai for a number of years and studied the history quite a bit. The Newman Ghost Tour was a great way to build upon prior knowledge of the history of the city. Daniel knows his history and adds colorful, interesting stories. He is knowledgeable, personable, and a great story teller. We look forward to taking more... More

Excellent tour with a nice walk through very different looks of Shanghai. Very good and knowledgeable guide that made the experience one of the best things I could think of doing on a lazy morning in Shanghai - especially when the weather is nice! Thank you Newman Tours More
