Reviews: Shanghai Van Gogh Starry Sky Museum + ERA Circus Acrobatic Show Night Tour [7:30 PM Session]
Guest User2025-12-15
The show was rescheduled, and the trip.com staff worked incredibly well. Thank you for your support and the rescheduling. The ERA2 circus show was very colorful, but it's a shame the hour flew by, a bit short. Afterward, we went looking for the Van Gogh Museum. We had a hard time finding it and trying to get in—the employee didn't want to let us in, and we didn't have internet to show him our trip.com confirmation, as he requested. After 20 minutes of negotiating, he gave us the Wi-Fi password and saw the confirmation. The museum was interesting, and you can take lots of great photos in its locations.★

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.★

Reviews: Half-day at Shanghai Natural History Museum and Huangpu River night cruise with headsets and professional tour guide service
Guest User2024-12-01
The guide was responsible and approachable, adjusting the depth and method of explanation based on the children's age and interests. The children were very engaged and the interaction was very interactive. It was a very enjoyable experience. Highly recommended!
