Great tour of the beautiful Zhujiajiao with our friendly and informative tour guide Lily

5.00This was a nice tour of Zhujiajiao, as well as a visit to the old town of Shanghai and a brief stroll through the French Concession. Unfortunately, traffic was bad, so we weren't able to do much else, but just the visit to Zhujiajiao made it worth it. Lily was my guide and she was very friendly and informative. I learned a lot about Zhujiajiao, Shanghai, and Chinese culture. Highly recommended!
Thank you Annie!

5.00Annie was simply the best!! She arrived on time to our hotel and we had the most wonderful experience with her. It was our own guide and driver throughout the whole tour! The car was very comfortable and Annie explained everything we needed to know. She asked us what we wanted to do , so we could customize our experience. She even gave us recommendations for the next day and booked an acrobatic show for us. Loved the tour and loved Annie! I if you want a private tour, I highly encourage you to book this one !

5.00We had a great private tour guide Annie. Annie is a local Shanghai resident who speaks excellent English and knows her country very well. We were provided with details of all the sights we visited and there was no rush to move onto other sights. Highly recommend this tour to learn about China.
