The pearl tower is the staple of Shanghai. when you are in it, that means you cannot see it; if that makes sense. If you are only visiting for a short time, you do not have to go inside the tower or to the top. Also the dinner was 3 stars at max. The food was not that great, and the rotation speed of the restaurant was very slow for obvious reasons. This is one of those bookings you make just to say that you did it, not so much to enjoy for a long period of time. If I can redo it, I would choose not to eat here and pick another place in Shanghai to eat.

The tour was excellent, Bill went out of his way to accommodate us. We were at a hotel far from the city center in Shanghai. He picked us up on time and we were able to visit all the sights we wanted to see. If you want to visit Water town he is the best guide you’ll find in Shanghai. We can’t thank him enough for giving us our best day in China.

This is my second visit to China using China Highlights (they are a brilliant company, cannot praise them enough. Everything runs like clockwork from first contact, through designing the trip, to the experience itself) but this is my first time in the Shanghai region. My guide today was Jessica. From start to finish she was exceptional; nothing was too much trouble. I was taken care of like a King. In addition she is a very intelligent and highly educated young woman who is able to handle complex concepts and discussions in English. Her command of the language is really good, as is her knowledge of the subject. The tour today consisted of visits to two outstanding gardens plus a rickshaw ride and a wonderful lunch in a very nice restaurant. I could not find a fault and have no hesitation is giving both China Highlights and Jessica a 5 star rating. By only difficulty is that I can’t take her with me everywhere I go in China! Thank you China Highlights (for the record, my trip was organised by Fiona who never lost patience with me - I had a serious illness last year and so needed to be more fussy and careful than most) and a huge thank you for Jessica; a star in the making!

They put together a special itinerary for me based on my interest in Zheng He maritime history as well as the transitions between the first and third Ming emperors.

Thanks to Cassie and Jenny’s China Tours, I recently enjoyed a live virtual tour of the Leshan Buddha, one of the oldest Buddha statues in the world. Cassie made the experience come alive, and is an absolutely incredible tour guide. She is so kind, welcoming and knowledgeable! I felt like I was there in person. Cassie provided an excellent historical background (including the Buddha’s construction), and bravely climbed the steps to the top. She made the experience personal, pausing as she climbed the steps, giving me the opportunity to marvel at the Leshan Buddha from different perspectives, and answering all of my questions. I also enjoyed the pavilion and exquisite Buddhist temple behind the Leshan Buddha (including breathtaking Buddha statues). What an exceptional experience! I can’t wait to tour with Cassie and Jenny’s China Tours again.
