“We had a tour on a really cold -9° Celsius day, so despite that, everything went great. Our tour guide spoke English really well, interesting stories. The tour time was punctual, and He payed attention to everyone to not loose each other. He was really nice, I even asked him if we can go inside one of the houses, and he rerouted us to see a house from the inside. He is really nice to the tourists, and with him you get a nice trip. (His name was Tony) The place itself was amazing, 4 hours was enough to look around the place. If it's your first time in China,…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 1,873 reviews · 55 - 75 minutes · from $10

Cruise Victoria Harbour at night with unlimited drinks, skyline views, and an optional Symphony of Lights show from just $10.

“Does What It Says You go out at 7 PM and cruise up and down the harbour. The boat then positions itself so you get an excellent view of the light show. Commentary as you cruise around is a bit limited and the PA system wasn't great. The open bar was truly "open". Excellent value for money for what we paid.”

Taste Shanghai classics, from soup dumplings to red-braised pork, on a three-hour small-group walk through Xintiandi and People's Square.

“The food on this tour was excellent throughout, with some truly great dishes, making it a very enjoyable experience. Kurt was social and clearly enthusiastic. However, he may have missed the opportunity to properly introduce the group at the start, which made things a little awkward, though it never took away from the overall experience.”
