Reviews: Day Tour to Zhujiajiao Water Town and Shanghai City (Private Car & Entrance 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.

Our tour guide Darcy was exceptional. Very warm and friendly. He arrived early at our hotel and was very helpful in answering all of our questions and explained the history and cultural context of Zhujiajiao. The car was quite comfortable too. He was patient and helped us organise dress up costume, live drawing and lunch. He also helped us book other activities for the rest of our stay. Lovely man, great experience.

Traversing through Shanghai's most vibrant areas was an unforgettable experience. The futuristic Lujiazui and the classic Bund perfectly complemented each other. The Yu Garden's tranquility was a welcome respite, while Nanjing Road步行街 was a shopping paradise. The former French Concession Court and Jade Buddha Temple provided a glimpse into Shanghai's rich past. Our English-speaking guide's insights enriched our journey.

Our tour guide, Xiaoxiu, was fantastic. She's young and talented, highly recommended! Our flight was delayed by an hour, and we were worried we wouldn't arrive at our destination on time. After contacting us in advance, she not only expressed her understanding but also thoughtfully reassured us and urged us to be safe. So thoughtful and touching! The entire explanation was engaging and engaging, with interactive questions and discussions. Our family is quite unorganized, and there might be people who don't stay with the group. Haha, this beautiful tour guide would go find them, never abandoning them, hahahaha. While researching the Yu Gardens stamp collection, we learned that the tour guide even went to the trouble of taking us back to the Cultural and Creative Center to redeem our stamps. She's an angel for stamp collectors! Thank you so much to our tour guide for accompanying us. Our whole family was so happy!

Excellent service. Buyed tickets in advance. The seller contacted by email. Not by vacap - mean and check the mail. Answers all questions. During the day reminded to track the code. At 16: 00 on the day of the speech, I sent the code to the mail, everything works for 5 people, as they bought - to sector A in the lower rows. The performance is very beautiful. I recommend visiting and recommend this seller.
