Reviews: Shanghai Huangpu River Tour
Guest User2025-10-06
My last night in Shanghai, the Bund Dragon Boat Cruise buffet trip after 22 years was really great. The splendid fireworks show of the Oriental Pearl Tower and the surrounding high-rise buildings was fantastic. The buffet on board before departure was also delicious and very good. I want to come back again with friends and acquaintances next time. The night view of the dragon boat cruise that sailed for about two hours brought back old memories. Try including it in your travel itinerary at least once. You won't regret it. It's just that buying and receiving tickets is difficult and complicated. If you speak Chinese well, there will be no problem.★

Guest User2025-10-10
The food is exquisite and the performances are very thoughtful. It is worth recommending to everyone. If there is a disadvantage, it is that it is a little far from the city center. It takes 90 minutes to take the subway from the Bund.★

Reviews: Yu Garden New Chinese Tea Experience (Stunning Terrace Views of Yu Garden + Immersive Tea Ceremony + Variety of Tea Snacks + Premium Tea Selection)
Guest User2025-09-29
Cool experience! I bought the voucher and made my reservation for the next day over the chat. There was a bit of confusion over what I had booked when I got there, but they sorted it out. The woman who did the tea ceremony was very knowledgeable and explained so much about the Chinese attitude to tea and the traditional practices around tasting it and how many times you can brew it. Overall a good tasting experience, just be prepared for a hard sales push after. I had planned to buy some teas but I was not prepared for the price point. It may be because of the tourist area, but these are way more expensive than even the priciest tea sellers I've bought from back home. I didn't know enough to be sure if I was being price gouged, so I only bought the smallest amount. Just be forewarned and enjoy the ceremony!
