This was an excellent excursion, cramming in 4 major sightseeing stops in one day - a very efficient way of seeing the city if you only have limited time. Snow was the best guide ever - very knowledgeable, excellent English, and was able to answer all of questions. Also a big shout out to our driver who always arrived with perfect timing. I can't recommend this tour enough. Shanghai is a beautiful city - exceeding my expectations. Oh, and lunch was delicious too! 5 stars for the whole experience!

The tour was excellent! Xin was phenomenal with her explanations of the historical significance of the sites we visited. The driver operated a clean and nicely air conditioned Tesla. A great day. Thanks for asking and let them know we will inform others who may plan to visit your amazing city in the future.

A must see experience that is truly one of a kind. The level of beauty is next level compared to other landmarks. My tour guide caroline was great! She wasn’t too overwhelming where they’re too talkative and too insistent. Also, Alana is awesome and a great coordinator. She was attentive to my tight schedule and customized my tour to ensure I was comfortable. Definitely a must see tour!

First of all, if you didnt know, May 1-May 5 is public holiday in China and I've booked this trip without checking the dates. Believe me when I tell you Shang Hai was PACKED! I read somewhere there is 3 million people at the Bund everynight!

With that being said, tour was still very enjoyable. May was our guide she manage to arrange to visit places when there is less crowd(bund in the morning, lunch at 2pm, departure to Zhujiajiao later so the traffic is better... etc). She was extremely thoughtful and knowledgably!

Bonus point, they manage to arrange a large MPV for just the 2 of us. It was super comfortable, My wife slept the whole way there and back from Zhujiajiao.

One of my best tours ever. Zhujiajiao is wonderful. Visited also Jade Buddha Temple, Yu Yuan, and The Jewish Refugee Museum, all very important and informative. The guide Mrs. Xin was excellent and the driver very efficient. It could not get any better.
