Snow was our guide and she was one of the most kind and friendly guide ever. She took us to the VIP cruise area from where the view of Shanghai was absolutely spectacular. We also went to the Thai restaurant after. The whole trip was very amazing. I recommend this guide to everyone.

The boat trip was excellent, especially being in the private VIP section. Then the Thai restaurant experience was superb; the food was amazing and service excellent. Quenie, our guide, made sure we were taken care of at all times and was very knowledgeable about Shanghai.

This excursion was lovely, especially, especially that I was traveling alone and felt well. Taken care of and safe. Alana provided excellent communication and a new exactly what to expect. Judy was a fantastic tour guide, her English was perfect and she was the perfect guide that Aladdin to experience the tour but certainly gave me the added touch of history and as much information as I wanted.. The driver was with the entire evening, making sure that we’re safe and getting to our different points. The boat ride was phenomenal, the lighting extraordinary. The dinner was very good and too much food lol. I highly recommend this tour to anyone, but especially if you’re concerned and traveling alone. Big thank you to Judy and Alana.

The evening river Cruise was fabulous! So pretty at night! Our personal guide Queena was a delight and very knowledgeable of local history and its architecture — and her English was very good! The Thai Gallery was some of the best Thai food we’ve ever had and the perfect finish to our Shanghai adventure. We highly recommend to anyone visiting Shanghai!!
Good experience

I wanted to try the dinner boat ride and eat so I made a reservation and it was awesome. The atmosphere is great. The view at sunset is very romantic. And I got excited when the boat passed under the bridge.
A beautiful experience!

We were well taken care of the entire evening, from the pick-up at our apartment until we were brought back home several hours later. The cruise was spectacular and our guide Snow seemed to know all the buildings and told us stories as we looked out over the brightly lit buildings. We will visit the restaurant again and also do the tour on the river when guests are allowed to travel again.

I could not think of a better way to celebrate my 40th with a group of my closest friends. Shanghai Night River Cruise did a superb job and had the best attention to detail. Wilson, our host, met us in the hotel lobby and escorted my group to a fabulous dinner (complete with entertainment). Since no one in our group spoke Chinese, he translated for us and gave us little known history of the area. He ended our night with a wonderful cruise along the Bund. Did I mention the VIP room on the boat?!? I HIGHLY recommend this company to take care of your every need. This was the most memorable birthday ever!!
