Reviews: Suzhou One Day Discovery : Unveil the secret of Master of Net's Garden, Experience the Handmaking Course with Local Market Food Tour
Guest User2025-07-21
Suzhou is always on my wish list and finally I made this happen . Kenny was our guide and She was so knowledgeable about this city and shared a lot of intersting places which we may never visit by ourselves. We also learned how to make a small piece of silk embroidery which is so meaningful . The local market is so much fun to visit, we tried a lot of local snacks and dimsum there . Would highly recommend to anyone to try.★

Reviews: Private Day Tour to Suzhou and ZhouZhuang Water Village from Shanghai
Guest User2025-04-22
I chose to go to the 'Humble Administrator' Garden, and the result was arranged to go to the 'Netmaster Garden', which is not on the menu. The 'Netmaster Garden' is really good. It is worth visiting, but this change is a bit strange. The silk museum is really not recommended, purely selling products. The time to visit the Panmen is too short, maybe because of the traffic jam on weekends. The restaurant arranged for lunch is a bit ordinary, but it tastes good. Zhouzhuang scenery is not very good, not a problem with the itinerary, but a problem with that place. The best thing is Mr. Wu, the tour guide, who is rich in knowledge and has questions and answers.★

Reviews: Tickets for the must-see ERA Time Travel Acrobatic Show in Shanghai
Guest User2025-12-29
If you come to Shanghai, you should definitely go see it! The amazing techniques can be quite nerve-wracking at times, but the satisfaction is high! The nearby department store also has everything you need, making it convenient. If you stay in the Xintiandi area, you can get to the venue at a low price (I took a direct bus for about 40 yen).★
