⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Amazing Show! The Shanghai World Circus was a highlight of our trip! The performances were spectacular, with incredible acrobatics, amazing talent and breathtaking stunts. The absolute highlight was the motorcycle riders inside the giant steel sphere of death! Watching around seven motorcycles riding simultaneously inside the iron dome at incredible speeds, crossing paths with perfect timing, was absolutely mind-blowing and nerve-racking! The skill, bravery and coordination of the performers were unbelievable. The show was entertaining from beginning to end, with excitement at every turn. If you're visiting Shanghai, I highly recommend adding this to your itinerary. It's an unforgettable experience and well worth seeing live! 🎪🏍️👏

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 such a fun and immersive banquet. Big choice of hanfu, the hair was beautifully done (you can have it up or down). I paid for hair and make up but opted out of the make up, just the small decorative touches, as I don’t like using shared make-up and brushes. The overall outfit was amazing. The food was surprisingly good and the actors did well. Great service overall, I highly recommend getting VIP seats for the best views. There is a small game at the end for those who want to participate. The show is in Chinese however there is a projected translation on the wall.

Overall, a Great Experience! We went to Xuyan to enjoy the live performance, and overall, it was a wonderful experience! All the performers were amazing, especially the aerial performance suspended high in the air. It was absolutely spectacular and impressive. Definitely worth watching! The food was pretty good too. The beef dishes were excellent, although the beef fried rice was just average. However, for guests who don’t eat beef or have seafood allergies, the food options may feel a little limited. Hopefully, they can consider adding more appealing and diverse dishes to cater to different dietary preferences. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience, and the performances were definitely the highlight!

We had a fantastic experience visiting Shanghai Tower and booking through Klook was easy and straightforward. We loved having no tour guide, as it meant we could explore at our own pace and really enjoy the experience. We arrived about 4.30pm, which was perfect for enjoying the incredible day-time panoramic views and we stayed until 7pm when Shanghai’s skyline lits up. Watching the city come alive with thousands of lights from such a height was spectacular and definitely a highlight of our visit. We also really enjoyed seeing the 1000-ton tuned mass damper. Learning how it helps stabilise the tower was fascinating, and the lighting display around it made it even more impressive. The views gave us an amazing perspective of Shanghai and the contrast between its historic areas and incredible modern skyline. Definitely one of the highlights of our Shanghai trip!
