What to expect
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Qingpu District, Shanghai, China
Your private tour guide will come to pick you up at your hotel lobby in the morning and take you to Zhaotun Strawberry Park in Qingpu District, which is well-known for its 20 years of research in plant technology. Upon arrival, the first thing you will notice is that you are not actually picking strawberries under a yawning blue sky but in the green house tent with some bees around. But don’t let this deter you; the strawberries are worth it! You will find the strawberries there are sweet and run-down-your-chin juicy. Your guide will accompany you to one of the tents to pick up the strawberries, and you can taste it as well during the picking time. You will surely have so much fun there!
Due to different seasonality; you will have different fruit surprise:
• Strawberry (Dec.–May)
• Sweet White Melon (March–July)

This is a beautiful tour if you've got kids and wanna have a beautiful time exploring Shanghai without the kids being grumpy. We were picked up at 9:30 am exactly by the wonderful Jane (who spoke English very well) in a nice van. She explained the itenary and asked if we had any comments or would like to make any changes before proceeding. She took us to a farm where the kids fed goats leaves and then the kids picked up melons from the same farm. She then recommended that we have lunch before exploring the city and the restaurant she took us to was clean with plenty of choices. The city itself (sorry but I don't recall the spelling) is so beautiful and we had fun exploring it with Jane. The highlight was riding in the gondola, which was so beautiful and the canals were breathtaking. The thing I liked about this tour is the fact that it catered to both kids and adults. Jane is well organized, attentive and knowledgeable. She answered all of our questions and more, kept us hydrated all the time and we didn't feel the time with her. Thanks JaneBerlin is a very nice and knowledgeable guide. She explained things such as the history to us clearly. She can converse well in English. I would certainly recommend my friends to join this tour if they are in Shanghai.

It was a wonderful trip. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and had a great time. Everything was planned out wonderfully and we are going to go back with a lifetime of memories. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the place and the small pieces of information she gave us were very appreciated. She was very friendly and very easy to get along with, especially for our 3 year old daughter who had a great time because she ensured that she was comfortable the entire time. Thanks a lot for this great day trip!Alana and driver picked us up at 9.30 sharp at our hotel. So nice to travel to the old river town in a comfortable car.

Alana and driver picked us up at 9.30 sharp at our hotel. So nice to travel to the old river town in a comfortable car. Stopped along the way at a farm to pick fruit and feed the animals.

This tour appeared to go badly when I got myself muddled and booked it for the following day - when I would have left China! - instead of trying to be joined into an activity on the day of booking. The woman to whom I spoke on the phone - Alana? - could not have been more patient with my stupidity and magically summoned up a guide and driver to collect me within about 30 minutes of my very garbled and frantic phone call. Snow, my guide, was charming company, well-informed about matters relevant to what we were seeing but with excellent English, so able to speak with me about other interesting features of everyday life in China, our smiling driver conveyed that my safety was in good hands and - along with the beautiful traditional garden in Zhujiajiao - the other highlight was the very friendly manageress of the farm we visited, who generously let me eat so many of her loquats! With Alana too, I thank you for leaving me with such good memories: what we saw was interesting, but what was really memorable and engaging was speaking with Alana and meeting and spending time with the three of you. Along with other experiences of lovely Chinese people, your kindness and friendliness will be what I will remember. I warmly recommend this company and this tour.
