Very unique experience!

SinLunEsther_K, Apr 2026

That’s an awesome experience. Our guide Johnathan is very knowledgeable, leading us smoothly to 3 places to experience the Shanghai Tower, driverless ride and robots interaction. I would highly recommended this to my friends.

Not High Technology in Shanghi

Evan_g, Mar 2026

Well first off the guide is great and did her best but had little to work with…. I would estimate that 50% of this tour is traveling from one location to another… it was not a high tech anything. It was simply an tour guide taking us to a EV public showroom in Shanghi tower, then walking and waiting for a train (30 min) then waiting for the driverless car for (30 min) then going another (30 minutes) to see a dancing robot…. We actually skipped the robot since it’s not even worth the 1 hour) travel time.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thanks for your feedback — we understand everyone has different expectations for pacing. The route and estimated travel times were outlined in the tour description, and part of the experience is also enjoying the city along the way, not just the destinations. Our guide and support team did their best to keep the journey engaging throughout. The robot show is actually one of the highlights for many guests, so it’s a bit of a pity it was skipped before experiencing it. We truly appreciate your comments and will keep working to improve the balance between content and travel time.

We had a very nice...

Response from Host, May 2026

Technical excellence and impressive innovations

MARKUS_M, Apr 2026

We did the guided tour with the very personable Derek. He did an excellent job, explained a lot and answered our countless questions with a lot of joy and openness. The tour was exciting and highly interesting. We are very impressed by the technical excellence and incredible innovative power of Chinese industry. We can highly recommend the dedicated Derek.
