Pleasure half day tour - We had Michael as our tour guide. He is fluent in both English and Cantonese, he’s also knowledgeable and gave us a good insight of the places we visited. We really enjoyed having Michael as our guide.

Perfect visit to Zhujiajao - Really well organised tour, from pickup to drop off. Our guide, Robert, was waiting for us in the hotel reception. Car was ready outside and was very luxurious. Robert was highly knowledgeable about Zhujiajao, and took us round at just the right pace. Thanks to his insights our visit was much more enjoyable than had we visited on our own. Lunch was at a fantastic restaurant on the water, and the food was excellent. Would highly recommend this tour for families and small groups, was a highlight of our Shanghai visit.

A trip to a very beautiful traditional village - Great tour: very comfortable ride, easy to talk to the tour guide (Lucy), we saw a bunch of market streets (with explanations on what is what there), been in a beautiful private garden, had a lunch in a local place and, of course, took a ride on the boat along the canal! The village is very beautiful, the food is delicious!

5 stars Tour Agent! - NASEER from Singapore. It was a good money and time spent for the 5hours from 9am. Sunny Tours was timely and their tour guide Robert was very kind. Thoughtful and went out of his way to send us to a shopping Center and then sending our earlier shopping belongings to our hotel. He gave good advise and always looked after our safety. Asked us to have our coffee break while queuing up for our boat ride. Well done Sunny Tours!
