WHAT AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!! I traveled solo and thought this would be a small group experience… BOY WAS I WRONG! THIS WAS COMPLETELY PERSONALIZED JUST TO ME!! Everything from the very beginning was absolutely perfect. The driver and guide, Caroline, picked me up on time and were extremely polite. I was driven to both towns in a private car and the whole time was lovely. Not just were the destinations amazing and the most beautiful and magical places surrounding Shanghai, but Caroline made the whole day EXTREMELY SPECIAL, MEMORABLE, and JOYFUL! She is extremely knowledgeable and even helped me with my shopping, suggested dishes in both restaurants we went to, had very pleasant conversations throughout the day, and went as far as being my personal photographer! She is too sweet and has definitely set the bar BERY HIGH for any other tour guides I may have in the future. Caroline also answered ALL of my questions not just about the tour and the towns, but also about Chinese culture in general. I never had an awkward moment of silence or an uncomfortable moment. The whole experience felt more like I was traveling with a friend! Bottom line, I just want to book tours with Amazing Shanghai Trip from now on!!! I am being one hundred percent honest when I say Caroline made this experience 1000 times better… if I could, I would book EVERY SINGLE TOUR with her… YOU SHOULD TOO!!! LOVED, LOVED, LOVED MY EXPERIENCE!!!! THANK YOU CAROLINE!! When I come back to Shanghai I am definitely repeating this experience in this same tour, hopefully with Caroline!! 100000% recommend!!!
Great experience and...

Great experience and guide (Jane). We had booked for 9:30 AM but they suggested we leave a little later to be able to see the village at night when it was lit up and definitely glad we did! Cool shops and the pork at the first restaurant stop was one of the tastiest things I’ve ever eaten.
I can only recommend!

This was a great day tour to do with my father! The walking was easy paced and our guide, Caroline, was very knowledgeable and took us to tasty restaurants for lunch and dinner! I highly recommend this tour if you want to get away from the city for the day and take in ancient China
