Doing what: Suzhou and Zhouzhuang Water Village Day Trip from Shanghai

Great tour, the guide was very knowledgable and entertaining at the same time. Only suggestion I give is that maybe less time at Net Master Garden and more time at Zhouzhuang water village.

Doing what: Beijing in One Day: Day Trip from Shanghai by Air

If you only have a day, take this tour! We were very lucky with the weather and our guide was really fantastic. Be prepared to walk, we covered a lot of territory in one day. The only weak point was lunch at the Jade shop. If you're a foodie, this is disappointing. However, I'll bet you can get your guide to go to a more interesting stop for lunch if you have an adventurous appetite.

Doing what: Suzhou and Zhouzhuang Water Village Day Trip from Shanghai

I expected Suzhou, about an hour's motorway drive outside Shanghai, to be a sleepy village, but instead, it is now a major manufacturing area. We visited a traditional Chinese house and garden that was less traveled and more quaint than the Old City in Shanghai. The Zhouzhuang Water Village is newly renovated, but the attempt to recreate the old-world charm is mostly successful.

The tour was just ok. But the tour guide was horrible! He should talk louder, it is as if he's whispering when he's speaking. He's always in a hurry, he should understand that we are there to take some time to enjoy the scenery and take pictures. He should also volunteer on taking our pictures.

The guide, Frank wasn't that informative.
He needs to brush up on his English.
Needs to stop hitting on the girls
Frank rushed us on certain parts of the trip, barely allowing us time to take pictures. However once we went to the silk factory he forced us to stay, even though we told him we were already done and we didn't want anything. It was just odd having him and the entire staff at the silk factory following your every move.

Doing what: Suzhou and Zhouzhuang Water Village Day Trip from Shanghai

I am a seasoned traveler and this is my second trip to China. I was very disappointed with our tour guide Paula. She was 1/2hour late to pick me up at my Westin Bund Centre Hotel. I had to call to see where she was. She never asked to see my voucher. After we picked up a couple from another hotel near the airport, she asked us what tour we were on. She didn't know the details of the Water Town tour at all, in fact we had to tell her what the description was. She spoke very poor English and sniffled loudly all the time. She did not escort us into the Shuzhou Museum and then rushed us out of the town. We did not have a "Chinese Lunch" as mentioned in the tour description; we saw the silk factory but nothing else in Shuzhou. I was very disappointed. Zhouzhuang was the same thing. She acted so inexperienced and didn't know how to shephard us around and we were only 3 people.

Doing what: Private Custom Tour: Shanghai in One Day

Frank was great!!! He was very informative and accommodating!. We were able to see more sights on our own as opposed to a larger tour group - no waiting for others, plus we got to select the places we wanted to eat, etc! Highly recommended!

Doing what: Suzhou and Zhouzhuang Water Village Day Trip from Shanghai

I thoroughly enjoyed my day trip with our knowledgable tour guide Sherry. It would have been difficult to see these sights all on my own and I enjoyed sharing the experience within a small group of 5 women, especially since I was touring solo. Wandering around Zhouzhuang was my favorite part of the day and I wished we had more time there. The meal could have better and I did feel rushed through parts of the day but overall the experience was very nice. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Shanghai who wants to get out of the city for a while.
