Unforgettable private night tour in Shanghai - Superb private night tour with our tour guide and driver who were being so helpful, kind, attentive and flexible. We experienced unexpected weather and heavy rain and thunderstorms. Our tour guide has modified our visit plan to meet our needs. We hope to join again next time and would definitely recommend this tour to others!

Shanghai at night - We booked both the river cruise and Shanghai Tower at night. Shanghai was gorgeous and could not compare with any cities with all lighted skyscrapers, towers and hotels surrounding the Huangpo river. Thanks to Mary who was so helpful and extended her knowledge to us about Old and New Shanghai.

The Bund Cruise & CNY Decorations - Flawless communication from the start, Alana kept me informed of times etc via email and informed me who would be meeting me for the tour. Our tour guide named Snow met us on time at our hotel, she was very welcoming and promptly showed us to our tour car and introduced us to the driver. The car was very comfortable Mercedes, my husband particularly liked the massaging chairs as we drove around Shanghai. Snow was very knowledgeable of the local area and pointed out sights to us as we headed to a more traditional part of Shanghai so we could view the lanterns and Chinese new year decorations (we happened to be visiting Shanghai the week before CNY) therefore the city had beautiful decorations to enjoy. Snow did not rush us at all on the tour, it felt like being with a friend as she showed an interest in what we liked to do. Snow made sure we got lots of photos and gave us time to shop. The cruise on the River Bund was very enjoyable, Snow arranged for us to sit in the VIP area which was a nice touch. The sights were definitely worth seeing along the cruise. I would highly recommend Snow as a Tour Guide and if we were to visit again, I would want Snow to show me around. She was kind, very helpful and allowed us to go at our pace.

Great Way to See Shanghai! - My guide Jane provided an excellent tour for me in Shanghai, visiting the Yu Gardens, French Concession and the Old Town. We did a lot in the three hours, and I really enjoyed myself on a lovely sunny day. I can highly recommend Amazing Shanghai Trip for adventures!

Amazing experience of Shanghai at night - I had an amazing experience. You absolutely cannot experience the view at night of Shanghai as well as if you take a ferry ride. Doing it through the tour company versus on your own is the best way so there is no stress and you get to learn about what all is the buildings are and about their history. My guide Snow was amazing. She spoke English perfectly and knew so much. She was very accommodating and asked what I wanted to see after the ferry since there was still one hour left in tour. I have used Viator numerous times as I’ve traveled to other countries. They are always reliable; the guide shows up on time and is very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

A night on the river - Alana was my tour guide and she did such an amazing job!! It was really nice to be able to go at night and see everything light up. The weather was nice so we stayed outside on the boat most of the time! We then were able to check out the French district and have some tea, it was a really great experience and Alana really made sure I was able to see some of the best things in Shanghi for my one night there!!

Great quick tour of key Shanghai soghts - Had the fabulous Berlin as my tour guide who was brilliant and her enthusiasm for her job shows. If you just have a few hours available and want the key highs and a spectacular view of the City from top of the Shanghai tower then this is perfect.

Evening River Tour on the Bund River - I chose to book with Amazing Shanghai Trip on my return to the area based on a great day tour the last time I was in the city. This tour, though much shorter did not disappoint and was a nice end to a Saturday in relaxing style. Pamela my guide was excellent and extremely knowledgeable, even helping me with my locked out WeChat account! The cruise down the river was around 25 mins long, spectacular views of the city at night. The weather was mild so allowed me to spend most time outside the VIP cabin taking soaking up the views. After the tour ended our driver dropped us on the Bund where we walked and continued to soak up the Saturday evening atmosphere. Would highly recommend this trip and any with the company, fully personalized service, great car transportation to and from the hotel and swift entry into all attractions.
