Perfect Afternoon Tour
I had such a great afternoon on this tour! It was just the two of us and it was so easy and enjoyable. The food, dessert, and tea were just fantastic and I left absolutely stuffed. 😁😁 I did this tour as part of a long layover in Shanghai and would 100% recommend to anyone. Thanks again!!

Brilliant introduction to Shanghai
This is a brilliant way to begin a trip to Shanghai. Robert was the best tour guide and a wonderful ambassador for Shanghai. His knowledge of the local area and Chinese history meant that our introduction to this mega and cosmopolitan city was comprehensive. Thank you, Robert! (Our driver was awesome too as he negotiated the traffic!). We are so glad that we chose this tour for our first day in Shanghai. The communication in the lead up was brilliant and gave us all of the information we needed for a successful tour. Thank you to all involved !!

We had a wonderful...
We had a wonderful experience visiting Zhujiajiao Water Town near Shanghai, made even more enjoyable by our guide, Kalvin. From the moment we met him, he was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive to our interests. He shared fascinating insights about the town’s history, culture, and hidden gems, bringing the ancient water town to life. Kalvin was patient, well-organized, and ensured everything ran smoothly, making the visit completely stress-free. His recommendations for local sights and food were excellent. Thanks to his enthusiasm and expertise, our trip to Zhujiajiao became one of the highlights of our Shanghai visit. Highly recommended!

A Beautiful Day in Shanghai and Zujiajiao with Snow
My family and I had a perfect trip to tge ancient river town, Zujiajiao. Our personal tour guide Snow was amazing! She was the most thoughtful, knowledgeable, and kind tour guide we have used in the World. We also loved our driver, Sifu and the luxury transportation we drove in for the entire trip. Snow perfectly timed all of our stops so we never had any wait time at any location which on a Saturday tour was very impressive. Snow also helped us to do some excellent shopping for fresh water pearls and other Chinese souvenirs. We stopped for lunch in the water town and had a delicious meal overlooking a scenic canal from a second floor restaurant. My family's complicated dietary needs of one vegan, one vegetarian, and a meat eater but no pork were perfectly accommodated. This tour with Snow was worth more than 5 stars and I recommend you ask for her directly when booking with Alana.

A very efficient trip to Suzhou from Shanghai
Kimi met us on time at our hotel and gave us an excellent door to door tour to and of Suzhou. He brought us to a great restaurant for lunch and we had a great meal. Walking through the gardens of Suzhou were a great highlight for us. Definitely wear comfortable shoes as we walked approximately 7 miles and the gardens have many steps and uneven stone paths.

Wonderful Shanghai experience with Annie!
We enjoyed our tour very much. Annie, our guide, was very knowledgeable about all the places we visited and always very kind. She gave us detailed information, historical background, and interesting cultural insights. We have a young child with a stroller and she was very considerate, finding us better walk paths that were more suitable for the stroller. We are so thankful for the great experience! Thank you, Annie! When we come back to Shanghai, we will definitely reach out to Annie again!

A great night out
We had a wonderful tour exploring the beautiful night lights along the Huangpu River and the charming atmosphere of Yuyuan Old Street. The cruise offered stunning views of Shanghai’s illuminated skyline, making it a truly memorable experience. Our tour guide, Mary, was very knowledgeable, friendly and spoke very good English. She shared many interesting facts and stories about the city’s history and culture. As an added bonus, Mary is a great photographer and helped us capture fantastic photos throughout the tour. Thank you to the driver as well who ensured we reached our stops safely and for the excellent navigation.

Great tour to Zhujiajiao!
First off, We were picked up in a very luxurious van at our hotel. This made the 1+ hour ride very comfortable. Michael was our guide. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and his English was perfect. We loved the walking area, gardens and boat ride around zhujiajiao. It was interesting to hear about the history. We selected the included lunch at a local restaurant which was plentiful and very tasty. Honestly one of the best meals of our whole trip to China. (Really)
The little shops at the water town were fun to browse through and prices were excellent!
Much less expensive than souvenirs and handmade items than in the city. I wish we had more time to browse but we only opted for the half day private tour.
I highly recommend this tour. And especially if you are lucky enough to have Michael as your guide!

Had an absolutely great...
Had an absolutely great time. Sunny helped navigate and set up the whole experience with ease, and I was paired with my Tour Guide, Helen, who was absolutely fantastic. She aside from being able to structure the tight schedule made sure that it was an enjoyable one and was beyond knowledgeable and kind in sharing so much historical information and facts about Beijing, The Great Wall, and China overall. Would definitely recommend this to anyone and would love to work with them again on a future trip to the Beijing area. So grateful because I definitely would not have been able to coordinate this otherwise without them. Such a wonderful memory.

LI ZHAOCHEN The Best Tour Guide In Shanghai
They should know that my experience with Li Zhaochen our guide was exceptional and flawless. It started at our hotel which was at least 1/2 hour out of their meeting point and he picked us up. He made sure we had the best experience and that we arrived at our destination Shanghai: Southern Great Wall Day Trip by Bullet Train on time and safe. He was very kind and went out of his way to make sure we had the best experience - he helped taking pictures, he gave us the history and customs of the places we visited in addition to the Wall - Taizhou Fucheng was one of them and since it was our first time on the bullet train he even took us out prior to us getting on it so we could video it coming into the station. We had a traditional lunch at a restaurant he had selected and he had listened to our likes and dislikes without us noticing. He had a private room for us with a spread of various custom dishes which tasted delicious and took care of our vegetarian and the person in our group who did not eat chicken nor fish. The food was freshly made and delicious. There was a person who wanted iced tea which they are not accustomed to having and he obtained it for them. He had drivers all set up who were safe and also pleasant. He even had raincoats and water for us. When we finished our tour we wanted to continue shopping and he helped us set up a ride back to the hotel. I cannot fully explain how helpful and enjoyable he made us feel and I know this is not the only tour he guides so if I were you I would ask for him without hesitation! Thank you so much LI ZHAOCHEN . I wish you the best.

Known as “The Paris of the East,” Shanghai is China's biggest and most prosperous city. Even the locals can’t do it all. That’s why Shanghai tours are the best way to maximize your time. Instead of looking down at a map, let your expert guide show you around sites such as the Shanghai Museum, the Yuyuan Garden, and the Jade Buddha Temple. Or opt for a food tour through the French Concession, a cruise on the Zhujiajiao canals, or even a day trip to Beijing, where you can walk on the Great Wall of China.
