Reviews: Shanghai Yu Garden + Shanghai City God Temple half-day tour: Traditional culture experience with optional Chinese tea tasting
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 Era Theatre Acrobatic Show Ticket
Guest User2026-01-13
The show was fantastic! Complex, engaging numbers, a compelling storyline, and a constant dynamic. The QR code and seat assignments were sent to WeChat two hours before the show, as stated in the description. We asked for WeChat or WhatsApp contact information in advance, and the seats were very conveniently located. Many thanks to the vendor!★

Reviews: Shanghai Jewish Refugees Museum + Huoshan Park + Duolun Road Cultural Celebrities Street Half-Day Tour
Guest User2024-07-01
Our journey through Shanghai's Jewish Refugees Museum, Huoshan Park, and Duolun Road was a blend of past and present. The museum revealed a forgotten history, the park offered a respite from the city's hustle and bustle, and Duolun Road showcased the city's vibrant culture. Our English-speaking guide's explanations enhanced our appreciation for these places.
