Things to do in Yu Garden

Visiting Yu Garden was such a beautiful experience — the traditional architecture, peaceful gardens, and vibrant atmosphere made it truly memorable. Our guide, Julian, was knowledgeable, friendly, and very attentive throughout the tour. He explained the history and culture in an engaging way while making sure we are comfortable and enjoying the experience. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Shanghai!

Our guide Maggie was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly kind, caring, and patient with us throughout the whole trip. She always adjusted the schedule to our needs, helped us with everything, waited for us whenever we needed extra time, translated for us, and even bargained for us when we were shopping. She answered all of our silly questions with so much patience and was always there whenever we needed help. She truly took care of us like a real mom! 🥹❤️ We felt so comfortable and well taken care of with her. We’re very grateful for everything she did for us!

Wonderful experience on the Huangpu River Cruise (Qingjiang Line). The night view of Shanghai was absolutely stunning, especially the skyline of The Bund and Pudong lights. The cruise was relaxing, clean, and well-organized, with plenty of good spots for photos. Staff were accommodating, and the atmosphere was enjoyable from start to finish. A perfect activity for first-time visitors who want to experience the beauty of Shanghai at night.

This was my first time trying this feature. I conversed over wechat about what I wanted to do, how many travellers we had, and asked them to come up with an intinerary for the duration of my stay. I was provided with a tour guide, and my own private driver. The private driver was amazing as we didn't need to worry about getting to and from the airport and tranporting our luggage for our group. All the tickets were purchased by the tour and were included in the price. I was travelling with small children and grand parents and this tour was very convienant for us to have a plan every day. We went to Yu Garden, Disneyland, Legoland, Zhujiajiao Ancient Town, Shanghai Pearl Tower, Nanjing Road, the Bund and more.

Audrey is friendly & helped us to take pretty photos. She explained the places & history in details.

Great experience with the Hanfu & cheongsam photoshoot! The costumes and hair‑makeup were beautifully done. The photographer was patient and professional, capturing wonderful shots for us. The location near Yuyuan Garden is super convenient. We really enjoyed our traditional Chinese‑style photo session and would highly recommend this service to other travelers

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. ❤️

It was a really good experience, the view was great and the oolong tea was amazing. The time flew by quickly but it was so worth it. The perfume section was very nice as well and the gallery. I would definitely come back. I had a little confusion finding the location but it is located on amap under “Song Art Space Gallery Art Tea Drinks” located near the Dairy Queen.

Helpful instructions in finding the location. Nice selection of costumes and the makeup artist did a great job on my makeup. The photographer was super helpful since I’m so bad at posing ahahha. Great value for money.
