Private transport from Shanghai to Wuzhen and Xitang water cities - My driver Shen arrived 15 minutes early (for 8:30 am start) in a clean quiet Tesla and provided excellent service and safe driving for my ride long distance excursion. Once we arrived at Wuzhen he parked in a nearby lot then escorted us personally to the ticket counter for the water attraction to ensure we were able to get started without an issue. Shen waited patiently while we explored Wuzhen for over two hours then it was on to the next attraction where he once again guided us to the front entrance. When asked when we should come back to the car he replied whenever we wanted to leave. Before we left Shen reminded us we may want to use the portable restrooms in the parking lot (which we certainly did) since the ride back would take over two hours. We finally got back to our hotel at around 6:30 so it was a long day for our driver but he didn’t seem fatigued or annoyed about the long day of driving and waiting for us to find our way back from our sightseeing.
