Jessie was a very helpful guide. I was running late to the tour and she waited for me and would check in often to make sure I was OK. She also went above and beyond to help me get to my other activities. Yu Garden is absolutely stunning and everyone should go!★

Reviews: Shanghai Tower + The Bund + Huangpu River Night Cruise: Shanghai Sightseeing Bus Join-in Half-day Tour
Guest User2025-11-04
I would commend my tour guide Andy for a great tour. He is very friendly, helpful and kind. He explained different attractions and shared a lot of stories about china, which is amazing. I don’t recommend booking on a weekend, there’s a lot of people. We used to have a ticket for 6:30pm but moved to 9:05pm because theres a lot of people. Nevertheless,the tour is still great. The night cruise is breath taking. Don’t miss this when you go to shanghai. Thank you again to our tour guide, Andy!★

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.★

Reviews: Shanghai Food and Culture Tour (Breakfast or Dinner; 10 Dishes at 5 Eateries)
Guest User2025-10-29
Excellent tour of central Shanghai with Michael. It is more than a food tour as he gives a detailed history of China, Shanghai and the buildings we walk past. Food was all excellent. A good introduction to the city for our first day.
