About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 337d_vidt0 contributionsThe Venice of ChinaIt was amazing to see a more traditional side of China after modern Shanghai. The place is very clean, and it’s great to see how they strive to preserve its original character! I highly recommend this half-day tour to anyone visiting Shanghai!Written 9 December 2024
- 189patr_ciaf0 contributionsGreat experience!Great experience since booking until the tour. Fast contact through WhatsApp facilitating all information, guide, times and feedback. The guide Jane has a great English and a lot of knowledge about the city and the history. It was a delightful day! Worth the experienceWritten 9 December 2024
- VadymMykeliv0 contributionsMust see places in 1 day.Good way to see most of the must-see places in Shanghai. Guide was very knowledgeable with 30+ years of experience. If you have 1 or 2 days in Shanghai, get a tour.Written 9 December 2024
- CalvinO1150 contributionsPrivate transfer from Pudong airport to hotelWe landed at Pudong airport in the afternoon. As expected, the airport is busy all year round. After we exited the arrival gate and walked towards the meeting point, we were happy to see Mr. Liu was there waiting for us. Without any delay, Mr. Liu led us to the car park and we left airport shortly after. The ride was comfortable and Mr. Liu was very helpful.Written 8 December 2024
- Compass359145509420 contributionsVery nice experienceEverything was as they offered. We met on time. Mary the guide was very nice. The food we eat was very good. As it was a privete tour we could visit the places at our own peace.Written 7 December 2024
- Profejean0 contributionsEnjoyable ExperienceI thoroughly enjoyed my half-day private tour, and I was glad that I chose an earlier pick up time of 9:00am from my hotel (the bigger tourist groups and buses arrive a bit later). This is a beautiful time of year to visit this charming town, from land and water. Mary was an excellent guide, including historical and cultural information as well as tips on where to shop for the freshest foodie items I wanted to buy. I would highly recommend this tour!Written 6 December 2024
- Maral K0 contributionsFantastic Tour!Xin was a phenomenal and informative guide. We were in a time crunch and had also been to Shanghai five years ago and seen quite a bit already so we presented quite the challenge, but she customized the itinerary on the spot and fit everything that sounded interesting to us into the time we had available. She even found a shop with cooking chopsticks for my brother (which we had been searching for all trip)! It was a whirlwind of a tour but we’ll never forget the time we had!!Written 5 December 2024
- Extraordinary5396560 contributionsPleasant ShanghaiWe had a very friendly and knowledgeable guide, Snow. She is nice and patient and helpful and planned our day trip very well. Would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a day out in Shanghai.Written 3 December 2024
- Extraordinary5396560 contributionsSuzhou EscapadeIt has been a fuss free and relaxing tour with our very efficient and very knowledgeable guide, Kimi. It’s a great tour and I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to experience Suzhou. Kimi also has very good time management which is important for us to catch the high speed rail.Written 3 December 2024
- christianjB4877VG0 contributionsFantastic way to experience ShanghaiXin was a fantastic and well-learned guide - knew the best shops for memorabilia, took some great photos, and was all around lovely company. Saw far more of Shanghai in one day than I would’ve found by myself over several days, 100% worthwhile if you’re having to cram a lot into a little time, and is much less stressful. Having transport sorted is a great feature, and the car I was in was pretty swish. All-in-all I’d highly recommend.Written 2 December 2024
- 404nisargs0 contributionsBest experience as everExcellent… I recently enjoyed a fantastic night tour with our guide May, who was incredibly nice and friendly. The river cruise was absolutely beautiful, offering stunning nighttime views, and the food was delicious. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Shanghai. It's a wonderful way to experience the city's vibrant night scene and cultural highlights.Written 1 December 2024

- Conklyn0 contributionsAmazing tour with fantastic guide! Highly recommended and so worth the value.My wife and I had a fantastic day touring all over Shanghai with Caroline as our guide and Mr. Shen as our driver. Caroline was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and accommodating as our guide. They made sure that we were able to do everything that we wanted to do, and as our minds changed they were flexible with us. Having Caroline help us with the language barrier was crucial for us to be able to buy what we wanted and order what we wanted at our local style lunch. We got to try so many signature Shanghainese dishes, and the ancient water town was so beautiful. She was so patient with helping take pictures at every scenic spot. Having Caroline and Mr. Shen made for such a smooth day as they knew exactly where to go and navigate easily. We highly recommend this private tour for anyone wanting to see amazing sites and views in Shanghai. They make it so easy and fun for you. We would definitely book again if we are ever back. Thank you so much Caroline and Mr. Shen!Written 30 November 2024
- vivianeI344PU0 contributionsTravelers with young childrenWe went on the trip with 2 young children, 8 and 5, and the tour was perfect. It was just enough time to explore, the guide was thorough and detailed, and gave us plenty of time to roam around. Food was delicious, the guide was knowledgeable, and we felt very accommodated for. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is wanting to explore the city in a leisurely pace - especially those with children. Highly recommendWritten 26 November 2024
- daisylT2076QI0 contributionsDefinitely recommend!Amazing experience! Easy and convenient way to see zhujiajiao with the best tour guide! Jenny was super informative and very nice. Walked us around the whole town and gave us plenty of time to enjoy all the food and shops. We were never rushed and the boat ride was peaceful. We went in the morning and it was not crowded. Thank you for everything!Written 25 November 2024

Guide FRED was exceptional - very knowledgeable and customized the trip at the last minute to our desires (Nanjing Massacre Memorial Museum visit). He also ordered and shared a local, fresh Chinese lunch which was much appreciated by all. Communication and coordination for this tour were perfect - no issues. It was complex as it involved taxi’s to train stations, high speed train connections, etc. We experienced zero issues all day..we highly recommend this tour, guide, and operator. Would definitely use again .

Alana took care of and communicated every detail. A wonderful guide and driver took us to the train station in Shanghai and we learned about the city.. Fred met us in Nanjing and planned a FANTASTIC day for us! His timing with the driver was precise and we saw everything we hoped to plus lots more. Fred took us to a local restaurant where we had our best meal in China! Fred is knowledgeable, professional, energetic and organized. We had a worry-free and wonderful day!

We had a meaningful day at Nanjing. Our guide Fred is very knowledgeable and converse with us in both Mandarin and English. The kids got to practice their mandarin with him.
Although the time was short, we got to see the 3 important landmarks in Nanjing (Confucius temple, Ming City Gate and Sun Yat Sen Mausoleum).
Its easy and comfortable from the time Our Shanghai guide picked us up from our hotel to the way back.
Nanjing was expecting heavy rain but we were lucky that it was cloudy with light drizzle.
Overall, this trip gave us an insight of what Nanjing has to offer, culture, arts and a lot of history.
Alana and her team are great.
