Shanghai Highlights and Zhujiajiao Water Town Day Tour

Alana contacts us the day before to provide us with the tour details. Berlin is our tour guide and she is knowledgeable and gives us detailed history of Shanghai. We intend to go to the bund on our own and Berlin is flexible to replace with Xin Tian Din. The view at Shanghai tower allows us to see almost the whole of Shanghai. The local Shanghai products are cheaper to buy at Zhu Jia Jiao water town. The lunch is good with recommendation by Berlin. Berlin treated us to Sheng Jian Bao at water town which is delicious. The boat ride is about 20 min which brings us around the water town. The tour is well planned which caters to the needs of adults and kids.

This full-day tour offers an immersive journey through Shanghai’s dynamic contrasts, seamlessly blending urban energy with tranquil water town charm. We saw so many iconic city highlights, including the historic Bund, where colonial-era architecture meets futuristic skyscrapers, and Yu Garden. The guide’s engaging storytelling enriches the experience, offering insights into Shanghai’s past and present. The shift to Zhujiajiao, gliding through its canals on a traditional wooden boat reveals ancient stone bridges, waterside teahouses, and bustling alleyways lined with local snacks. Logistics are well-organized, with comfortable transport and a balanced itinerary. Highly recommend!

Great Tour with Judy! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Judy was an excellent guide—knowledgeable, friendly, and even treated us to free *xiaolongbao*! The ancient town visit was a nice escape from Shanghai’s bustle, and the food was delicious. Highly recommend! 😊

Contact was established by Alana the day before ensuring all booking details were correct. Xin our guide was awesome, keen to impart her knowledge and super accommodating of our son’s allergies- the first true meal he ate comfortably in China! Xin also told us of events happening around Shanghai and gave us tips to assist in our departure via train. Our driver was very accommodating, polite and enabled safe travels around the city.

My day trip was amazing. From the reception, punctuality, cordiality, explanations along the way. Berlin was impeccable. Her explanations made a difference in the tours. I loved it. We had lunch in an extremely delicious restaurant. I can only thank you for this day and recommend Berlin to tourists who come to Shanghai.

Our group of four recently embarked on a private tour to Zhujiajiao and Shanghai’s Highlights, and it was nothing short of fantastic! The package included entry to iconic attractions like the Shanghai Tower and the tranquil Yu Gardens, along with a delightful lunch that exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, stress-free, and thoroughly enjoyable. A day before the tour, we received a detailed briefing from Alana, who ensured we had all the information we needed. On the day of the tour, our driver, Chen, arrived early, in a HUGE Mercedes-Benz equipped with massage seats, patiently waiting to pick us up and take us to meet our guide, Snow. From the moment we met her, Snow’s warm demeanor and extensive knowledge brought the trip to life. She peppered our journey with fascinating insights about Shanghai and Chinese culture, making the tour both engaging and educational. One of the standout benefits of this private tour was its flexibility. Snow, upon learning we planned to visit The Bund the next day, suggested customizing the itinerary to include an alternative destination. We chose Xintiandi (The French Concession), and it turned out to be a brilliant decision. Snow guided us through this charming district with exceptional commentary, highlighting its rich history and unique character, showcasing her deep familiarity with Shanghai’s hidden gems. Adding to her many talents, Snow assisted us in bargaining for souvenirs at local shops, ensuring we got the best deals. She also skillfully coordinated the itinerary so we could be dropped off at a convenient location for our evening plans, making the day not only enjoyable but perfectly tailored to our needs. This tour was a delightful mix of iconic landmarks, cultural exploration, and personalized service. It’s clear that Snow and the entire team are committed to creating memorable experiences. We can’t recommend this tour enough - it was a highlight of our trip to China!

Today's Zhujiajiao day tour with Elaine was great!! Even with the slight drizzle, she made sure we got to enjoy and complete all the planned activities. Highly recommend this English-guided tour to anyone visiting Shanghai!! 😊

Berlin was our tour guide and was phenomenal. She was knowledgeable and knew many history facts. We went to The Bund, Yuyuan Garden, and Zhujiajiao. We had lunch together and we went on a boat that went across town. The driver was also phenomenal. Choose Berlin!
