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.★

Excellent tour, excellent guide, and excellent timing. It was a very informative and interactive tour. I learned a lot thanks to the knowledgeable guide that pointed at significant objects that I would not have noticed myself. I highly recommend this tour and its guide.★

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: Real Shanghai: Classic Icons Meet Hidden Gems (Bund/Yu Garden/TianZiFang/French Quar.)
Guest User2025-08-08
I just want to say, wow! I spent a lot of time comparing the tours in Shanghai online. After a really long research this tour really stands out from the rest. As an experienced traveler, I always look for a true local experience. My guide Laura was super knowledgeable and showed me a lot of the places where I saw very few other tourists. The tour balanced it very well with must-see attractions like the Yu Garden. Although there were a lot of people in the garden, Laura still managed to let me learn something new. And my favorite part is the local market for lunch. Laura took me to a local market and I was in queue with locals for some really delicious local food. Highly recommend if you are looking for a cultural tour.★

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.
