5.00We just completed our annual vacation and although late I’ll take this opportunity to write a review on our Viator experience in Shanghai 10 MARCH 2025. SNOW was a wonderful and outstanding tour guide. She explained everything about the history on the sites we visited and went out of her way to take us to Michelin Star restaurant when she found out that my son’s favorite Chinese dish is dumpling. We highly recommend this tour and tour guide Miss Snow, she’s very polite, very likable personality, courteous and professional. Snow really made our family special during our tour and we will cherish this memory in Shanghai forever. Thank you.
Awesome tour. Guide...

5.00Xin and the driver were wonderful! Very knowledgeable and fun to talk to. We laughed as much as I learned. Would recommend to anyone looking to see shanghai sites but would rather not do it alone

5.00This is a customisable 4 hour private tour of Shanghai. The tour operator was efficient and communicative. Our guide, Mary, was absolutely amazing - she was on time, knowledgeable, keen to share deeper information when we needed, pleasant and probably the best guide we had in China. Driver was extremely good and car was clean. Overall a fantastic experience
Xin was most generous...

5.00Xin was most generous with her knowledge and time… always going above and beyond. I couldn’t think of a better way to begin to get to know this city.
