This guided tour, centered around the Shanghai Natural History Museum and covering a wide range of topics including astronomy, dinosaurs, and animals, was a great success. Ms. Yu was both humorous and professional, delivering a vivid and well-structured explanation that made it a rewarding natural science lesson for both children and adults.★

Reviews: Shanghai must-visit route: Oriental Pearl Radio & Television Tower + Huangpu River night cruise, Chinese group 1-day tour (including cruise)
Guest User2025-11-18
It was a trip with friends, and the guide's explanation was good, but it was a shame that there were no lights around during the cruise. The lights came on for about the last ten minutes, so I was disappointed that I didn't have time to take pictures.
