The best river cruise tour - This activity is a must to do while visiting Shanghai. The city’s skyline is one of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. Our young driver arrived on time and we met Lin, our guide, to go to the cruise. There were a lot of people for the boat ride but with this tour, you get to sit in the front of the boat, away from the crowds. Lin was such a warm young girl, very energetic with an easy smile. We took several pictures of the buildings. Once the boat ride was over, Lin took us to a restaurant where we had a Xinjiang style dinner, spicy lamb, noodles and two side dishes of veggies. The food was very tasting and delicious. After dinner, we were dropped off at our hotel. We soent a beautiful time with Lin talking about seversl topics. This tour is highly recommended!!!!

Shanghai evening river cruise - We thank our guide Alana for shis professionalism and creating a wonderful mood for the clients. We booked a trip along the river, an overview of the architecture along the embankment, a trip to a restaurant of Uighur cuisine. Everything worked out perfectly. Special thanks to the organizers of this tour for the transfer from our hotel and back, such an attentive attitude towards us helped a lot.

Shanghai boat tour - My husband and I had Queena as our guide. She was amazing! She answered all our questions and did a great job explaining everything. She even gave us recommendations for late night snacks after the tour.

Happy shanghai night cruise - One of the best experiences we had in shanghai. Since the beginning with the pontual pickup, the reserved space in the cruise ship, the wonderful night sightseens from huangpu river, the awesome dinner in a traditional chinese restaurant and, the most important, the company of the guide Berlin who made this whole experience happen with her kindness and care with us. We do recommend this tour. Merry Christmas!

Great time in Shanghai - We really enjoyed our time.. starting with a pick up and ending with drop off to a nice bar. We started with a nice restaurant, which was fully booked based on quantity of people, Queena (our amazing guide) recommended us smth and it was really delicious. Then we went to cruise itself, really appreciated information about Shanghai and particular buildings we were passing by, was interesting and views were stunning. After the end we didn’t want to go back to the hotel and she recommended us a nice bar, called there and brought us there.. was very helpful considering that not that many people there speak good English. We would definitely recommend this tour to all people who like to be taken care of))

So Glad I Booked. - This trip included a meal and the trip on the river. Queena was my guide. This was a truly memorable experience. The food was excellent. The trip along the river at night is a sight to behold. You get to see both sides, the new modern one and the old colonial side. I so enjoyed this tour.
