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.

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.

Cici was a super host. As well as being extremely generous with her time, a knowledgeable and patient chef of delicious dumplings, she was a delightful person with whom to spend an afternoon. Our family really enjoyed spending time with her and we had some great conversations over our meal after the class. I highly recommend her class!

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!

Our family of four from Vietnam visited Disneyland in Shanghai. I used my Visa card to purchase Disneyland tickets on Klook, choosing a package that included priority access for two rides: Zootopia and Winnie the Pooh. After queuing to present our passports, they issued tickets with QR codes. When it was time to go on the rides, we presented the paper tickets with QR codes for them to scan at the Priority lane. For other rides, we didn't need to show the tickets. Our full day at Disneyland was a wonderful experience; it was our children's first time traveling abroad, and they had so much fun. Thank you, Klook.
