Happy Customer!

The private tour was well planned, and we loved the places that our tour guide took us. We were pleasantly surprised at the end of the tour, we were given a beautiful tea cup as a souvenir! We recommend this tour company. The tour guide and driver were friendly and professional. The tour guide introduced us to Shanghainese dumplings for lunch, it was delicious! The company has private tours in other major Chinese cities, so we will definitely use them again!

A wonderful experience with Jade, she is so fun and made the experience so comfortable! The range of food was fantastic and I was so so full by the end.

Shanghai Private Tour: Zhujiajiao Water Town and Boat Ride

Chris_L, Oct 2026

This was a great...

This was a great experience. The tour coordinator, Alana, was on top of everything and very easy to communicate with. The town is beautiful and full of rich history. Our tour guide, Jenny, was informative and accommodating, from adjusting the pace of the tour to our needs to assisting with an unusual last minute detour. Would definitely go on another tour with them in the future.

Shanghai: Southern Great Wall Day Trip by Bullet Train

Rhoda_G, Oct 2026

Great day tour

It was a fantastic experience. The tour had a driver pick us up at our hotel in Suzhou, we then boarded the train and our tour guide, Jordan, joined us in Shanghai. Once we got to our final destination, Jordan shared the history about the Great South Wall. When then walked down ancient city streets and had lunch at a place called the Secret Garden and it was wonderful. When then went to East Lake and walked around for a bit. When then took the train back and our driver was waiting for us to take us back to the hotel. If you can’t get to the Great Wall in Beijing, this is a must see tour. A lot of the Great Wall up North was modeled after the Great South Wall.

Zhujiajiao - a water town where time has paused

We had a wonderful experience on the Shanghai Zhujiajiao Water Town tour, and a huge thank you to our guide, Michael! He was friendly, informative, and extremely well organised throughout the day. His clear explanations and thoughtful planning made the tour relaxing and enjoyable from start to finish. Zhujiajiao itself was absolutely beautiful—truly something out of a postcard. The peaceful canals, traditional architecture, stone bridges, and scenic streets made it feel like stepping back in time. It is easy to see why the town is known for its picturesque waterways and historic charm. We highly recommend this tour, especially with Michael as your guide. It was a memorable and scenic escape from central Shanghai, and we would happily do it again!

A big thank you to our wonderful guide Sunny and our driver Sammi for making our stay in Shanghai such a memorable experience! Both were extremely kind, helpful, and professional, always doing their best to ensure we could see and experience as much as possible. Sammi was always punctual and drove carefully and safely.

She made Chinese history, traditions, and culture easy to understand and truly brought them to life. Once again, thank you both for your outstanding service, dedication, and professionalism. We really appreciated everything you did for us! Vesna Marijana

Wonderful 5 Star Tour of the Water Town

This tour was excellent- five stars! Kalvin tailored the tour to suit my 79 year old mother’s walking abilities and interests. The water city was stunning and relaxed. We thoroughly enjoyed our time wandering the gardens and taking a boat along the canal. A fantastic addition to our time in Shanghai!

Brad_W, Sep 2026

Great way to spend the day. MUST!

Outstanding part of my Shanghai trip. It’s a hike from city center—and traffic can make this a pain, so you might consider a train/metro option—but the town itself was so cool. Casual small boat cruise to start and then walking around the area. Great restored garden. Lots of cool local shops. Great food. HIGHLY recommend

Shanghai Pudong Airport to Shanghai Hotels: Private with Meet & Greet Service

Jeni_B, Jul 2026

A smooth experience due to earlier and frequent communication by the tour company!

Excellent communication. Received an invite to start a What’s App chat within a day of booking (even though my reservation was a month out). Two days prior, received my drivers photo and car photo with license plate info. They tracked my flight and kept me updated. Driver also texted me a photo of my hotel with address to confirm the location was accurate (I was staying outside of city center by SJTU). Then after getting my bags, the driver was waiting with my name/sign after customs. Not certain he spoke English, though there wasn’t a need to communicate as I just followed him to the car, which was a short walk to the parking garage. Definitely recommend vs a Didi/taxi.
