Description

Skip the tourist traps and discover the real taste of Shanghai on a local food tour through some of the city’s most iconic neighborhoods, including the historic French Concession. Follow your local guide through backstreets, old-school eateries, street food stalls, and hidden family-run spots where locals still eat every day. Taste Shanghai classics such as crab dumplings, crispy street snacks, noodles, seasonal bites, and traditional sweets while learning how the city’s food culture was shaped by migration, trade, and neighborhood life. This tour focuses on authentic local food rather than polished tourist restaurants.
