What are people saying about Shanghai

Aggie, Sep 2026

A food tour not to be missed - absolutely excellent!

We have had a fantastic time and sooo much food. Jade, our guide was outstanding, she was so much fun, personable, knowledgeable and very engaging. We were a small group only, 3 participants, but it never felt odd. She made sure everyone felt looked after. The food was plentiful, very yummy and very authentic. We visited little local places we wouldn’t have known or found ourselves.

English Translated Private Car and Tour (with Guide)

Shanghai was a new experience, and neither of us spoke English. The English speakers in Shanghai are not numerous, so a guided tour with an English Interpreter was arranged. The tour was great, the interpreter was awesome, the private vehicle moving us around was a blessing, and the price was very reasonable. Would highly recommend. Cathy was a font of information, friendly, helpful, and her English was great. We did other tours in Shanghai, and trust me, English-speaking doesn't always mean English-speaking. I was very pleased.

Zhujiajiao Water Town and Shanghai City Private Day Tour

Laurie_M, Sep 2026

Perfect day in Shanghai and Zhujiajiao!

Our private tour of Zhujiajiao Water Town and Shanghai was the highlight of our trip, and that's thanks to our guide, Blair. She was amazing from start to finish. She even played hide and seek with our son, which made him feel like he had a new friend for the day. Blair picked a fantastic spot for lunch, and she was totally flexible all day, adjusting the pace to what worked for our family. We saw so much and never felt rushed. If you want a day that's easy, fun, and family-friendly, book this tour and ask for Blair. Highly recommend!

Private Suzhou Day Trip from Shanghai by Bullet Train with All Inclusive Option

Hamid_Y, Sep 2026

One of the most beautiful days of our entire trip – thank you, Caroline! ❤️

Caroline was an absolute dream! From the very first moment, she welcomed us so warmly and made us feel incredibly comfortable. This honestly became one of the most beautiful and memorable days of our entire trip. She is an absolute professional and somehow always knew exactly where to go, where to stand and how to take the perfect photos. Some of the most beautiful pictures from our entire journey were taken with Caroline, and we will keep those memories forever. A very funny and sweet surprise: we are Iranian, and Caroline even knew a little Persian! That made the experience even more special and showed us once again how much knowledge, passion and personality she brings to her tours. We loved everything about the day – especially the rickshaw ride, the beautiful boat ride, the food and all the little moments in between. Everything was organized so smoothly that we could simply relax and enjoy the experience. For the price, this tour is an absolute must-do. Caroline is genuinely one of the best tour guides I have ever had, and I have done many tours around the world. We would recommend her again and again without hesitation. Thank you so much, Caroline, for giving us such a beautiful day. We are incredibly grateful that we got to experience it with you. ❤️

Shanghai: Southern Great Wall Day Trip by Bullet Train

Julie_L, Sep 2026

Southern Great Wall was a...

Southern Great Wall was a great alternative to the 'northern' Great Wall since we were staying in Shanghai. Our tour guide Jordan prepared the itinerary nicely for us, and made sure of proper transportation. He provided the unique history behind the Southern GW as we walked, then led us through the streets of the local town of Linhai with small shops and markets, before a nice lunch at a tucked away restaurant. We completed the tour through East Lake, which was near the head of the SGW. We enjoyed the experience from beginning to end!
