    An excellent tour and highly recommended. Our guide Judy could not have been better. Her English was perfect and she was very knowledgeable and informative. She was in our hotel reception waiting for us just before our allotted time (10am) and the information began as soon as we set off in the chauffeured Tesla. It’s a long drive out from central Shanghai. Once there Judy expertly guided us through the maze of little streets, over bridges, around the Taoist City God Temple, through an ancient Manor House and its beautifully landscaped gardens and onto our gondola ride. The experience included lunch in a small restaurant where she chose the menu after asking us about our tastes. We love Chinese food and this was top notch. Judy was very attentive to our needs throughout and we could not have been better satisfied. Thank you Judy and driver (Mr Chun or similar).

  • Ancient Water Town during national holiday week

    During National holiday week in October can be very crowded. We book this private tour with the hope our guide would navigate the crowds. It was excellent. We missed all the crowds by arriving early and were able to tour the ancient town in relaxed atmosphere. As the crowds started to build we left the ancient town to a local farm and were able to pick Oranges and Dragon Fruit. The farm was 15min away from the ancient town. After the farm we headed back to the Ancient town and had lunch. This time we went to a less crowded part of the ancient town and walked some of the less traveled alley ways. National holiday week in October can be crowded, but with our private tour guide it was a success in avoiding what could be a very busy time. To make this happen our guide contacted us to start at 7:00am instead of the normal 9:00. Arriving early we did not miss anything. And coming back for lunch made us appreciate how nice it was and gave a second chance to look around.

    Alana was amazing, arrived on time and was very detailed when explaining how the tour would work. The transport was very spacious and clean with water provided. The tour of the village was great and she even showed us some secret viewing spots, along with helping us decipher the lunch menu for our tastes. We would definitely recommend the tour to anyone with 5 hours or so to spare as it gets you away from the hustle and bustle of Shanghai to a peaceful town where even the locals go to relax. Thanks Alana.
