This tour was absolutely amazing. Our tour guide was May and she went above and beyond and exceeded all of our expectations. She spoke very good English and we could easily understood everything she said. We picked the Hot Spring with Hot Pot Dining experience so May picked us up at our place and first, she took us to the hot spring. She handled our tickets and entry so it's definitely convenient for those who does not speak Chinese. They give you a bracelet with your locker number and key attached. The first locker, you put your shoes in. Next, you go inside and pick a robe you would like to wear. Then it is separated into male and female section. Once inside, you strip naked before going into the hot springs. It may feel a little weird in the beginning, but it's not that bad after a couple of minutes, well, for women at least.
That hot spring is suitable for women, men and kids. Inside, they had over 10 variety of hot springs: different temperatures, one that acts as a massager, outdoor ones, etc. We came in the winter time so it was really nice to be in this type of setting. My favorite one was the one outside because you still get that nice cool breeze while you're soaking the hot springs. They also had a salt room, showers, toothbrush for you to clean off after you're done at the springs. Next, you can walk out and there is a back section for kids to watch movies, read manga, variety of sauna rooms, massages, relaxing station, charging station, you name it. While we were doing all this, our tour guide May was patiently waiting for us outside. You can easily stay here for at least 2-4 hours.
Once we were done, May took us to eat hot pot. We told her about the types of food we liked to eat and food allergies my friend had. She was able to communicate all allergies to the server and picked a bunch of delicious food. Everything was very yummy and she was so easy to talk to. I'm really glad we were able to have an extra person to eat with us since it was just me and my friend who had very strict dietary restrictions.
We told her about how we're leaving the next morning to Beijing but were worried about not being able to find a taxi. She used her app to try to reserve a taxi for us, when that didn't work, she asked our driver to pick us up at 6 in the morning and drop us off at the station. Even after our tour, she messaged me to make sure we caught our train and that we were okay. I would high recommend this tour.

We were unable to attend this trip as I had a terrible cold. But our guide Alana offered to come and see me and bring antibiotics or a Doctor - Alana Wu is a lovely guide so any trip would be a treat with her, which is why I still rated it 5 stars. Thanks Alana!

My wife and I had the pleasure of being hosted by Alana in Shanghai for the Gokurakuyu hot springs and hot pot dinner. The entire evening was wonderful. Not only were the activities themselves thoroughly enjoyable, but Alana is like the ultimate ambassador for China; we felt as if we were being treated as personal friends rather than simply paying clients for a sightseeing tour. The quality of the entire experience was above and beyond what we could possibly have expected. We have one unscheduled day together in Shanghai next week, and we're really hoping Alana comes up with something else she can arrange for us then!

Our quick trip to Shanghai was made complete by our night boat tour and hot pot dinner. Alana was so helpful during a very busy time of the year. The lights were impressive and the VIP SEATS great! Her English was very good and she could help our daughter with her Mandarin Chinese. You could tell she was very experienced and knew the area. The meal was a lot of fun and a great way to end the night.
We would recommend this tour to anyone!

We would like to say thank you very much for Alana for taking us on this tour to the spa and dinner. From the start of the afternoon Alana, greeted us with a very friendly smile and was very prompt to begin the excursion. Alana was very intelligent and enjoyed having a conversation with us about the rich culture and history.
After a very relaxing trip to the spa at which we did not need to organise anything or worry about any of the paperwork. Alana then took us to a hot pot restaurant which was delicious and again Alana was very friendly and we enjoyed an enlightening conversation over our food.
The entire tour was excellent, very well organised and the easiest tour we have ever been on. I would highly recommend anyone to take this tour if they are looking for a very relaxing and peaceful afternoon and dinner. The transport organised was prompt and we did not wait longer than a minute for the bus and we did not get lost at any point in time. Thank you once again to Alana and we hope to use your services in the future.

Our tour guide, Alana was amazing! She spoke and understood English well, was very helpful in helping us choose our hot pot meal, and very sweet. Went above and beyond in emailing us info about getting to the Mag train. The hot springs had 10 different areas to enjoy different baths, nude tho!

This tour was worth it! We were so thankful we had an English speaking guide since we couldn't read mandarin. Our guide helped us order based on our preferences. Food was delicious and so much more than expected! Night river cruise was great and we appreciated the photos our guide took of us as well.
