Reviews: Shanghai Van Gogh Starry Night Museum + ERA2 Circus World - Time Travel Acrobatic Show [2 PM Show]
Guest User2025-12-15
The show was rescheduled, and the trip.com staff worked incredibly well. Thank you for your support and the rescheduling. The ERA2 circus show was very colorful, but it's a shame the hour flew by, a bit short. Afterward, we went looking for the Van Gogh Museum. We had a hard time finding it and trying to get in—the employee didn't want to let us in, and we didn't have internet to show him our trip.com confirmation, as he requested. After 20 minutes of negotiating, he gave us the Wi-Fi password and saw the confirmation. The museum was interesting, and you can take lots of great photos in its locations.★

Reviews: Shanghai Classic 1-Day Tour: Oriental Pearl Radio & Television Tower + Huangpu River Cruise with Optional Buffet Diner
Guest User2026-01-16
Before your trip, you'll receive detailed, real-time information via chat. However, please note that this is not a guided tour; it's a ticketing service. While the Oriental Pearl Tower and the cruise ship terminal are nearby, the Shanghai Urban Development Museum is about 3 kilometers away across the Huangpu River, so I wasn't able to visit.★

Reviews: Shanghai Yu Garden + Shanghai City God Temple half-day tour: Traditional culture experience with optional Chinese tea tasting
Guest User2025-11-30
Teacher Mao was very professional. A native of Shanghai, she was extremely familiar with Yu Garden and provided a very detailed explanation throughout the tour. The process wasn't tiring at all. We heard many stories about the garden, some of which weren't even online but were only recorded in the county annals. It was very vivid and interesting. She even took us to the City God Temple before the tour ended. It was definitely worth the trip! Yu Garden truly needs a guided tour; otherwise, you simply won't understand it! This trip was very worthwhile!★

Reviews: Shanghai must-visit route: Oriental Pearl Radio & Television Tower + Huangpu River night cruise, Chinese group 1-day tour (including cruise)
Guest User2025-11-18
It was a trip with friends, and the guide's explanation was good, but it was a shame that there were no lights around during the cruise. The lights came on for about the last ten minutes, so I was disappointed that I didn't have time to take pictures.
