Best of Shanghai Day Tour including Jade Buddha Temple and The Bund

Shanghai, China

My Rating
3 star rating: Worth doing

My Review

The historical and educational sites were really good such as the Shanghai Museum, Yu Gardens and Jade Buddha Temple but a lot of time was spent on the "tourist" shopping sites (Pearl, Jade and Silk) instead of allowing us to roam around Old Shanghai Street to shop like the locals. We felt like our tour guide was also trying to pressure us to book another tour which we felt was rather pushy.

Overall the tour was ok. Intimate and small so we learnt a lot as there were only 5 passengers with the tour guide and driver. Driver handled the traffic really well and we enjoyed the sites.

My Review

This was a really good show and the tour guide was really nice and helpful. Instead of finishing up at Xintiandi, we did this first which was a little disappointing as we would have loved the opportunity to be able to try the cuisine and night life there instead of being sent back to the hotel straight after the show but the show itself was fabulous! Highly recommended.

My Review

It was good except that sadly the creatures of the sea show was canceled due to apparent rain but it was only a few sprinkles of water and drizzle. That was rather disappointing. Range of food for dinner was good and the tour guide was exceptional.
