Excellent tour. Knowledgeable guide and experienced stuff for the very first time. If i were to offer a pointer, it would be to include a trip to the 'top' and the very top, of the Shanghai tower. Otherwise, all great.
Our guide, Joyce, was very friendly and knowledgeable. Aside from introducing the advancements in the car tech, she also brought us to ride the driverless car and interact with robots. Thanks Joyce!
Amy our guide was great and a pleasure to be with for our half day trip… we saw a lot in our only afternoon free on our business trip and in a way that was far more engaging than if we’d done them alone. Highly recommended 👍😑😇
We did the guided tour with the very personable Derek. He did an excellent job, explained a lot and answered our countless questions with a lot of joy and openness. The tour was exciting and highly interesting. We are very impressed by the technical excellence and incredible innovative power of Chinese industry. We can highly recommend the dedicated Derek.
Vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Ihnen die Tour mit Derek gefallen hat und Sie sie spannend und inspirierend fanden. Vielen Dank für Ihre Empfehlung 😊
That’s an awesome experience. Our guide Johnathan is very knowledgeable, leading us smoothly to 3 places to experience the Shanghai Tower, driverless ride and robots interaction. I would highly recommended this to my friends.
Thank you for the lovely review! We’re so happy you enjoyed the experience with Johnathan. Glad to hear you had a great time exploring the Shanghai Tower, the driverless ride, and the robot interaction 😊 Really appreciate the recommendation!
Well first off the guide is great and did her best but had little to work with…. I would estimate that 50% of this tour is traveling from one location to another… it was not a high tech anything. It was simply an tour guide taking us to a EV public showroom in Shanghi tower, then walking and waiting for a train (30 min) then waiting for the driverless car for (30 min) then going another (30 minutes) to see a dancing robot…. We actually skipped the robot since it’s not even worth the 1 hour) travel time.
Thanks for your feedback — we understand everyone has different expectations for pacing. The route and estimated travel times were outlined in the tour description, and part of the experience is also enjoying the city along the way, not just the destinations. Our guide and support team did their best to keep the journey engaging throughout. The robot show is actually one of the highlights for many guests, so it’s a bit of a pity it was skipped before experiencing it. We truly appreciate your comments and will keep working to improve the balance between content and travel time.
We had a very nice experience with Jonathan & Esther. They were very enthusiastic and it was an original way to explore the city. I would recommend this activity!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re glad you had a great time with Jonathan & Esther and enjoyed discovering the city in a different way. Really appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again someday 😊
Fantastic experience of Chinese tech and taxi without impressive driver. Thanks to our great guide Daniel who is at the top and explains everything perfectly.
