Although this was 1 year ago, my wife and I would like to say that the tour guide (I think he is called Bill) was very helpful, speak fluent English, good knowledge about the tour and don't mind to go an extra mile to do his job. He is highly recommended.
Awesome tour with Bill - highly recommend!

Had an awesome time touring with Bill! He’s super knowledgeable and speaks excellent English, which made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. With over 10 years of guiding under his belt, it really shows – he gave tons of interesting insights not just about the tourist spots, but also shared a deeper layer of Chinese culture that you don’t usually hear about in the West. What I really appreciated was how open he was to chatting – I had a lot of questions, and he answered them all with patience and depth. We ended up having some great conversations about the car industry (which I'm into) and even his take on my home country – super interesting stuff! Bill really helped me understand more about how Chinese people think and see the world, which made the trip even more meaningful. Easily a 5/5 – would definitely take a tour with him again!
Bill, was the tour guide....

Bill, was the tour guide. Excellent English, very informative on tour details. He also does food tours, and Shanghai city tours. Loved the dumplings tasting on the city town tour. Can't go wrong choosing Bill as tour guide.

My first tour while on my 2nd day at Shanghai. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Bill was my guide who messaged the night before to arrange the pick up and meeting point. Bill was on time, he speaks great English, is very friendly and outgoing. I learnt a lot about China from Bill on our ride to Zhujiajiao water town. The boat ride was great, I enjoyed walking through the ancient town. The garden was fascinating. We walked past Hanfu costume shops and I mentioned how I wanted to dress up. Bill was accomodating and I was able to get Hanfu dressup and professional photography. He waited patiently, held my bags and translated for me. We had lunch, the dumplings were delicious. Bill gave me a souvenir to take home, a cotton carry bag with a picture his daughter drew when she was young. That was a sweet gesture. I highly recommend this tour or having Bill as your guide. Loveliest man. Would be joining him on other tours when I’m back in Shanghai. Thank you Bill for such a lovely day I’ll always cherish!!!
What an amazing...
