Super worth it! Official tickets are so expensive, but here the price is very reasonable and seats are great. Thanks a lot! Checked my email before the show, got the entry QR code smoothly. Scanned at the gate and entered in no time—so convenient lor ! Whole show is all acrobatics! The ERA performers are so professional, really admire their dedication.

Reviews: Half-Day Tour to Zhujiajiao Ancient Town [Explore the Millennial Water Town with Timeless Charm and Lively Atmosphere]
Guest User2026-07-08
The guide was very helpful. Unfortunately, the boat trips were cancelled due to rain. The return trip to Shanghai train station, contrary to the previously mentioned possibility, was not possible.

Reviews: 1-day tour to Shanghai Wild Animal Park for panda viewing and feeding predators in the vehicle zone
Guest User2026-06-05
Yulia is a fantastic tour guide! She's so positive! My child is learning Chinese, and she told my daughter how to pronounce each animal in Chinese! It was fantastic, the entire tour was a joyful experience, and all my requests were taken into account! I highly recommend visiting with a guide, as the park is huge! Arrive no later than 9 a.m. to make sure you get to see all the animals, who you can feed and pet!

Reviews: Shanghai Huangpu River Night Cruise Ticket includes a buffet dinner; you can choose between the Dragon Boat or the Crystal Princess cruise ship at Pier 3, Shiliupu.
Guest User2026-05-30
If you're visiting Shanghai, a night cruise on the Huangpu River is something you simply shouldn't miss. My partner and I booked the evening cruise with buffet dinner, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our time in the city. From the moment we boarded at Pier 3, Shiliupu, the experience felt special. As the ship pulled away from the dock, Shanghai's skyline began to light up around us. Seeing the illuminated skyscrapers of Pudong on one side and the historic buildings of the Bund on the other created a stunning contrast between old and new Shanghai. We spent much of the cruise on the outdoor deck taking photos and admiring the views. The city looks completely different at night, with colourful lights reflecting across the river and famous landmarks glowing against the skyline. It was easily one of the most impressive urban views we experienced anywhere in China. The buffet dinner was a welcome addition to the trip. There was a good variety of dishes available, allowing us

Reviews: Tickets for Shanghai's must-see ERA Acrobatic Show | Circus City QR Code Admission |
Guest User2026-06-07
I bought my tickets easily. They were emailed as promised. They contacted me to make sure I received them. I loved the show; the performers did a great job! I've long dreamed of going to this circus, and finally, I saw it. I went with my mother-in-law on my birthday. It was a wonderful end to a wonderful day. We got there easily and found our seats. We thoroughly enjoyed the show. We were in row 7, seats 1 and 3, and had a great view of everything.
