Reviews: Shanghai Yu Garden + City God Temple Traditional Culture Experience: Preview the Lunar New Year Lantern Festival with Optional Chinese Tea
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: Flexible Half Day Tour to Zhujiajiao Water Town with Boat Ride from Shanghai
Guest User2024-07-17
The tour beautifully balanced history and modernity. Zhujiajiao Water Town and the French Concession showcased Shanghai's rich past, while the Bund and the Peace Hotel exemplified the city's vibrant present. The seamless blend of these elements made for a fascinating and informative journey.★

Reviews: Tickets for the must-see ERA Time Travel Acrobatic Show in Shanghai
Guest User2025-12-29
If you come to Shanghai, you should definitely go see it! The amazing techniques can be quite nerve-wracking at times, but the satisfaction is high! The nearby department store also has everything you need, making it convenient. If you stay in the Xintiandi area, you can get to the venue at a low price (I took a direct bus for about 40 yen).
