Didi has vans,but I think getting two cars (e.g. taxis) would be easier.
I suggest you go to the hotel first, and then explore the city via walking/subway. The Waldorf is on the Bund, so you can check this off easily. Then you can head to Peoples Square in order to visit the big museum and the Urban Planning museum (my second favorite site in Shanghai after the aquarium). And, head over to the Hengshan Lu area, in order to get a good feel for the former French Concession.
