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.

Amazing experience.I loved my makeup the artist was very talented! I did take my own foundation just an fyi as I didn't want my skin tone to be too light. My favourite thing about the makeup was the lashes because they were individual lashes rather than a single one which meant it looked way more natural! You can choose though. I was very impressed with the hair as well! I initially thought it's all just one big headpiece that they put on but no! The lady put on around 8-10 sections of hair and kept adding more and more and the end result was beautiful. They also were kind to accommodate me for a later photoshoot as I wanted night time photos. Overall would recommend, you will feel like a princess!

One of the experiences I really wanted to try during my trip to Shanghai was the Qipao experience. There were many companies offering it, but I booked through Klook from Korea before I went. The staff were incredibly kind, and we communicated using a translator, so there were no major difficulties. They did my hair and makeup so artistically that I was amazed and satisfied, wondering if I could really look like that! The photos also turned out beautifully, and it was a fun and special experience.👏

Wonderful experience to make our own soup dumplings 🥟. it was great to understand and learn how to create the soup portion of the dumpling as it seemed like a mystery until this class! I will be trying to make these. fun class, would highly recommend doing this to learn something new and valuable!

First of all, they require you to book in advance at least 2 days before, but my schedule was very tight and asked Klook if they could help me to book 1 day before. Thank you so much for organizing this for me!! ❤️Overall experience was very good and smooth👍🏻, they will help you find the most suitable outfit for you. The lady (I forgot to ask her name) let you try on the qipao and let you decide which you liked the most👍🏻The photographer will teach you how to pose. You will select and collect the photos on the same day which was great! They also gave me a printed photo for free as they said I was the first customer! Thank you😊

We had the most wonderful time learning from and talking with Yin! The market visit was informative and opened the door for seeking out and buying many more vegan Chinese cooking ingredients! Yin was a patient and kind teacher, and we learnt so many techniques from her that we are incorporating into our everyday cooking. The dishes we cooked were delicious and we have already recreated them at home using the recipes Yin provided . Xie Xie, Yin! We loved meeting you and are so grateful for all we learned from you, cooking and conversation wise!

What a fantastic experience! Our group truly enjoyed the Authentic China Taste Cooking Class with Michelin Chef Tony. We learned how to cook Kung Pao Chicken and make delicious wonton soup, and it was both fun and informative. A special thank you to Josie, who picked us up and guided us throughout the entire process. Her communication skills were excellent, and she was incredibly accommodating, thoughtful, and attentive to everyone in the group. Thank you for a memorable experience from Team Philippines! Highly recommended for anyone visiting Shanghai.
