Very happy and satisfied with the whole experience! The package included makeup, hairdo, dressing, and a professional photoshoot. The photographer moved around with us throughout the session, making it easy to capture beautiful moments. The package also included transportation to and from the shop after the photoshoot, which was very convenient. Overall, a wonderful experience and definitely highly recommended! I will certainly recommend it to my friends. ❤️

What an unexpected hidden gem of a shop! I am beyond satisfied with my photography experience. The makeup and styling were exceptionally meticulous; best of all, they weren't rigid and adjusted the look based on my facial features and requests. The hair accessories and clothing fabrics also had a wonderful texture. Haha, I'm terrible at posing, but the photographer was great at guiding my movements and finding fantastic shooting locations. The atmosphere in the photos is completely on point, and the final results exceeded my expectations!

This was my first time doing a studio photoshoot in a cheongsam in Shanghai. The location is at Chenghuangmiao, near entrance number 2. The studio is absolutely beautiful, with many vintage and stunning photo spots, and lots of props for photos. The staff are very efficient and helpful; some speak English and are very friendly. From the moment I arrived, I chose my outfit, had my makeup and hair done, selected shoes, proceeded with the photoshoot, and then chose the photos—all completed within 1.5 hours, so it was very time-efficient. The photos are excellent; the photographer was skilled at giving directions and knew the best angles. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with my photoshoot here. I definitely want to do it again next time! 😍

Very convenient. Just head to the main ticketing counter. there are two, and they’ll provide you with a QR-coded ticket that serves as your pass every time you hop on the bus. Only one physical ticket is issued per group (we were two people but received just one ticket), so you’ll need to stay together at all times. This is one of the easiest ways to explore Shanghai. We managed to visit all the major tourist spots in just one day because of this, making it a must try activity. They also provide in ear earphones that connect to an audio tour guide, along with a map for easy navigation. Buses run very frequently, so you won’t have to wait long before hopping on again.

The experience in this tour was excellent. Jenny the tour guide made an effort to arrange for the meet up via WhatsApp or Wechat two days before the trip. We departed for the Shanghai film studio on time and she shared many stories during the visit. It was interesting to see the set of various Shanghai scenes from the last century. Lunch was an additional 50Rmb but was definitely worth it as arranged by the guide. We had a feast at the local restaurant. The visit to the Zhujiajiao was the icing on the cake. This was a misty scenic and picturesque ancient town. The ride on the boat along the river canal was magical. Overall the trip was well organised by Jenny and we had free time at the end to explore on our own before ending the trip. Highly recommended.

The guide Shu Xiong was knowledgeable and explained the attractions well. I also initially booked East Gate and Nanxun, but switched to East Gate and West Gate (with boat ride) after the guide introduced West Gate as the definitive Jiangnan water town experience. We stayed till 7.30pm at the West Gate, which allowed us to take photos of the night lights.

It was a full bus load of tourists and everywhere we went, it was crowded. but the guide, Chen Lei, did very well to make sure that nobody went missing as we walk the streets, cross the roads and weave through the multitudes of people. There was an additional fee of CNY110 per person. 40 for lunch at a buffet restaurant that is basically like hunger games - hundreds of people crowding to get food. 10 for the earpiece to listen to the guide - this is useful. 60 for the boat ride and a short Suzhou music performance.

It was a great experience and many beautiful places were shown. As I am not able to speak chinese I could not fully understand the historical explanations, but the guide (and the translator) helped me a lot to experience it!

We got the half day tour. Will arrived ahead of schedule, picked us up at the hotel. Car was spacious, and clean. It was a great tour as Will was well knowledgeable, he even brought us to affordable stores and good restaurants. He also helped us deal with vendors. Quite a fun trip so far! Well recommended :)
