Fabulous - I booked this private tour for 4 adults. It was fabulous. Our guide, Annie, was delightful. Her English was wonderful. She was smart, funny, insightful and helpful. She made our tour of Zhujiajiao Water Town so interesting. Later in the day, she took us to sites within Shanghai. They were great, too. Everything about this tour with Annie was top notch. I would highly recommend taking a tour with her.
