Private Suzhou and Tongli Water Village Day Trip from Shanghai

A long overdue review. Our group of 3 took this wonderful day trip from Shanghai. Our tour coordinator Alana contacted us the day before our tour to confirm all tour details and followed up post tour to check if everything was good. Excellent service. Our tour guide Tracey is a Suzhou local and is experienced and professional. Tongli is a beautiful water town and the gardens of Suzhou are very impressive. Tracey explained very well the history of these places and took lots of photos for us. Lunch was included in the tour and Tracey was very accommodating when we just wanted to do a noodle lunch instead of the original planned one. I need to mention that our car was comfortable and spacious. Good driver too. Overall we had a fantastic trip.

We had a wonderful day trip to Suzhou, beautifully organized by our tour guides Alana and Lulu. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive throughout the journey, making the experience both fun and insightful. From the historic gardens to the scenic canals, everything was arranged perfectly. Highly recommend them — 5/5!

Mary was a wonderful guide and shared her wealth of knowledge about Shanghai, the Tongli Water Village and Suzhou. We learned so much in one day!

We really enjoyed our tour with Berlin. She was engaging and knowledgeable. It was a great tour for our team and helped with jet lag for one team member as we had the various sites and van rides between activities. She took care of us with cool snacks since we were visiting when it was very warm as well as lunch. We are glad we took this tour!

We were a group of family members visiting shanghai and found this wonderful tour to Tongli and Suzhou. Our guide Xin was professional and skillful and had a lot of nice historical stories to tell about these historical places we visited. It felt like we learned a lot thing about this part of Chinese culture and history in addition to the beautiful scenes. The tour arrangement was great and the routes were excellent. Although there were many tourists around these tourist spots we almost always found us among ourselves in peaceful environments.

I loved the trip to the cute Tongli water town. Full of history and interesting details about how the bureaucracy worked at the time. Then we went to Suzhou and got marvelled by the gardens and the old street. Our guide Mary was very knowledgeable and had always nice fun-facts about the place and the society of ancient China to spice up the tour. She was also kind and professional. Thanks Mary!

Tongli was beautiful and authentic. The lunch in Suzhou was delicious and the humble administrators garden was breathtaking! I very much enjoyed my guide Daisy who was very generous with her time and advice! We fit in some shopping on the side as well!!
