Reviews: Shanghai Yu Garden + Shanghai City God Temple half-day tour: Traditional culture experience with optional Chinese tea tasting
Guest User2025-11-30
Teacher Mao was very professional. A native of Shanghai, she was extremely familiar with Yu Garden and provided a very detailed explanation throughout the tour. The process wasn't tiring at all. We heard many stories about the garden, some of which weren't even online but were only recorded in the county annals. It was very vivid and interesting. She even took us to the City God Temple before the tour ended. It was definitely worth the trip! Yu Garden truly needs a guided tour; otherwise, you simply won't understand it! This trip was very worthwhile!★

Reviews: Shanghai Day Tour to Zhujiajiao Water Town and City Attractions(Private Car & Ticket)
Guest User2025-06-26
The driver and guide Joe is a really wonderful person. We were a group of 5 people and he helped us a lot. One of us is a person in a wheelchair, so he helped even with it coz he had to move in such a wheelchair for half a year.★

Reviews: Shanghai Huangpu River night cruise ticket, including buffet dinner, with optional Dragon Boat or Crystal Princess departing from Shiliupu Pier 3
Guest User2025-08-26
Delicious food and the best view of the city you could wish for. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to see the entire panorama. The boat wasn't crowded, and you could reserve a seat on deck for the tour for a small surcharge. But the view is also fantastic otherwise.★

Reviews: Shanghai Tour with "Eternal Shanghai" Show & Sightseeing Bus (Chinese Service)
Guest User2025-08-20
Performance 10 points exciting, if the bus can arrive earlier at the attraction a little more time for us to play would be better, when the five D performance program has started, missed this one we have to 4:50 (last show), just the most exciting performance of the day is 5:00 start, so only give up watching 5 D. Choose to go to other attractions until five o'clock, come back to see the Shanghai Eternal Love from 5 o'clock, children and the elderly also 10 points like, so remember not to miss this re-investment performance at five o'clock. Next time you can buy tickets directly and arrive at the venue earlier so you can watch the full performance program.
