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.★

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.★

Guest User2026-03-11
Excellent tour. I really enjoyed everything. Our Russian-speaking guide, Andrey, led the city tour. He showed me all the city's iconic sites, told me the history, and shared his life hacks. He even helped me get a SIM card. 😁 I highly recommend him; everything was great.★

Reviews: Shanghai Departure Suzhou 1-day Tour: Humble Administrator's Garden, Hanshan Temple, Zhouzhuang (Optional Private/Join-in Tour)
Guest User2026-03-17
Overall, well planned and good experience. Tour guide was very helpful and informative. Van was new, large, and clean. We did a private tour and communication was good via WeChat. We were picked up at 8:30am and returned back to the hotel at 7:45pm. It was a long day visiting both Suzhou and Zhouzhuang, but I don’t think it would be worth visiting on two separate days. The reason for only 4 stars was that we were charged an additional 3 hours at 150 RMB/hr. After the booking was confirmed, the tour operator said the tour is only for 8 hours of time even though the description on Trip.com said the tour would be 9am-8pm. Seemed like a bit of a bait and switch. They should just put that on the description if there are additional hourly charges.★

Reviews: Soong Ching Ling Memorial Residence In Shanghai + Wukang Mansion + Wukang Road professional tour guide service with headsets
Guest User2026-01-13
I highly recommend this Shanghai cultural guided tour! Following the guide throughout the entire tour not only gave me a clear understanding of the historical context of the Soong Ching Ling Memorial Residence, Wukang Building, and Wukang Road, but also provided a level of professionalism and personalized service that far exceeded my expectations – a truly exceptional experience!
The guide, Zhou Junju, was exceptionally professional, far from simply reading from a script. At the Soong Ching Ling Memorial Residence, from the preserved furnishings in the main building and the precious books in the library, to the camphor grove in the courtyard that Soong Ching Ling loved, every detail was vividly and thoroughly explained. She also added many little-known anecdotes, making this great woman's image more lifelike and three-dimensional, not just a cold historical symbol, but a warm and relatable protagonist. Arriving at the Wukang Building, I was truly amazed. The guide meticulously explained its origins as a design by László Hudec, its history as the former Normandy Apartments, and the stories of renowned artists like Zhao Dan and Sun Daolin who once lived there. Even architectural details like the building's three-section facade and vase-shaped railings were explained thoroughly and clearly. Only after listening did I understand why this "giant wheel-shaped" building has become a Shanghai landmark. During our stroll along Wukang Road, the guide also explored the former residences of famous figures like Huang Xing and Ba Jin, tailoring the explanations to our interests without omitting key historical details or becoming overly verbose.
What impressed me most was the personalized service. The pace was exceptionally well-managed throughout. When we wanted to take photos, the guide slowed down and thoughtfully pointed out the steps. When we wanted to take more photos of buildings we were interested in, the guide patiently waited and even offered suggestions on the best angles. When someone asked about the architectural style of the old French Concession in Shanghai, the guide answered confidently, sharing relevant historical background with professionalism and patience.
The entire trip was not rushed; instead, it offered an immersive cultural experience. Participants appreciated the beauty of the architecture and gained a deeper understanding of Shanghai's century-long history. The professional explanations of the guides transformed these attractions from isolated photo spots into a cohesive narrative of time, making it incredibly worthwhile! I highly recommend it to anyone wanting a deeper understanding of Shanghai's culture; choosing a guided tour is definitely worthwhile!
