We had a wonderful afternoon on the Qibao water village tour. Yun was a delightful tour guide who we would recommend to anyone. She showed us aspects of Shanghai culture that we could not have appreciated without her expert knowledge and excellent English. Yun is very engaging company and we were thrilled to spend time with her.

The Qibao Ancient Water Town Private Tour was very nice! Our guide Songchin did an excellent job showing us around this unique and scenic historic area! He answered our questions and was flexible with our arrangements. We had a good lunch and found a neat calligraphy school.

Qibao Water Town is a must see! A beautiful town with lots to see, friendly locals, lots of stalls, delicious food and so much history. Our guide, Jun, was brilliant. We met Jun at our hotel, she was very organised, knowledgeable and was happy to answer our many questions. A day of site seeing, shopping, learning & eating delicious foods…. it was like three friends having a great day out, thank you Jun. Sue & Jill / Australia

Lovely experience with our guide Jun who felt more like a friend showing us around. Lots of interesting information and loved that she broadened our experience with a Chinese writing session. Thank you.
