This is probably the best tour I've experienced. Sunny, our guide, was flexible and amazing!! When our trip got rained on she offered new options and we had a brand new tour. Sunny was knowledgeable and took us out for a delicious lunch! HIGHLY recommend.

I had a great tour with Lily to this nearby watertown. It is accessible via subway followed by a quick taxi ride. This is a nice small watertown with beautiful canals and traditional architecture, beautiful bridges and all of it easily walkable at a leisurely pace. We saw most of it in few hours including the local food market. The day we went felt like it was a very local tourist area, with many shops catering to the local population. Lily, my guide, was great. We met at my hotel in central Shanghai and hopped on the subway. In no time we arrived in Zhaojialoum but it felt very far from Shanghai. A really pleasant and interseting quick getaway from Shanghai.

Sunny was kind and helpful, making some fun memories of my layover day in Shanghai at Water Town. Her excellent communication and help with customs and even negotiating with vendors and currency issues made things easy and a pleasure. She was also very nice company. I would recommend this tour to anyone.
