Shanghai Zhujiajiao Half-Day Ancient Town Tour with Transfers

Our day trip with Kalvin was a great way to see and experience Zhujiajiao. Kalvin, a local Shanghainese, is so knowledgeable and shares details that we would otherwise miss if we were touring on our own. We enjoyed a leisurely walk through 课植园, a boat ride down the canals and a sumptuous 农家菜 meal at a local shop (Kalvin ordered and the food was delicious). We did the tour as a family with 2 young kids and Kalvin was patient with us as we took longer to move about/managed the kids. Highly recommend this tour and Kalvin’s services!

We experienced a lovely half day tour of the Watertown ZhuJiaJiao with a wonderful tour guide Ming. Ming met us on time in our hotel lobby and the ride provided was spacious and comfortable. On the way to our destination Ming also shared with us valuable information about the history of local attractions as well as about ZhuJiaJiao. Everything was fuss free and quick and lunch as recommended and booked by Ming was awesome too. Ming took great care of us and our son loved him!! Highly recommended to book this private tour!

Had an amazing half-day tour with guide Berlin who was very professional and had great knowledge of Zhujiajiao water town. She was also very flexible and had personal touch, considering our preferences. Communication was smooth also before the pick-up from our hotel. Definitely one of the best ways to spend 5 hours in Shanghai.

our journey through the water village was made unforgettable not just by its charm and history, but by the person who brought it all to life. Kalvin, our guide, was nothing short of exceptional—warm, attentive, and deeply knowledgeable. Every winding alley, every ancient bridge, every quiet courtyard seemed to carry more meaning through his stories. He didn’t just show us the village; he revealed it. From the broader historical context to the smallest cultural nuance, he shared it all with passion and clarity. If you have the chance to explore this timeless place, I hope you’re lucky enough to do so with someone like Kalvin leading the way.

We booked a group tour but were upgraded to a private tour and driver for two. Linda our tour guide was simply the best that we have ever had anywhere in the world. She ensured that we went to areas that weren’t full of tour bus groups but we still saw and experienced everything properly. Linda also helped us purchase things at almost local not tourist prices and patiently waited for us whenever we wanted to stop anywhere and wasn’t watching the clock ever. As for the tour itself it’s simply superb and well worth the drive from Shanghai. Such a beautiful place and overall experience. Lunch was also superb and tailored to our exact tastes as Linda asked us at the beginning of the day plus it included local beers which we didn’t expect at all. You will love this entire experience.

We enjoyed so much the tour, our guide, Jane was very informative and knowledgeable. This is probably one of the must do tours in Shanghai if you fancy going to see the ancient and tranquil lifestyles in a water village setting. The driver was also very good as well as the vehicle quite new.

Hi Yes, we enjoy the tour. Mary Ma very good & driver driving is good and safe. Mary's arrangement for lunch and the choices of foods that allows us to choose good 👍. She don't rush and the boat ride is slow so that everyone can enjoy the view.

Amazing Tour Experience with an Exceptional Guide! Our trip was absolutely incredible, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing tour guide, Queena! From start to finish, she was knowledgeable, engaging, and went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. Not only did she provide fascinating insights about each destination, but she also made sure everyone felt comfortable and included throughout the journey. Her passion for the culture, history, and hidden gems of the area truly made the trip special. Thank you!

had the most amazing tour with our guide Snow today! it was seamless and comfortable from the moment she picked us up at the hotel. comfortable car ride and very fluent in English. brought us to all the popular areas where I tried the best street food since being in Shanghai. We ended our tour inside a nice restaurant at the Conrad hotel where she chose the food that we would enjoy. I highly recommend this tour when you visit here.
