We received excellent service from Annie. She was kind, considerate and spoke perfect English. She knew everything about Shanghai and pointed out beautiful landscape places for family pictures. She took us to a delicious local restaurant to have lunch, flagged down DiDis and navigated us safely through the High Speed train station and the boat river tours. We had an amazing experience with Annie!

We had an informative and fun time in Suzhou thanks to our wonderful guide Annie. Annie was Knowledgeable about the area and shared amazing facts about the area and culture. We learned so much! We love taking photos and she was great about letting us know the best places for photo ops. Annie suggested a wonderful place for lunch and helped us with ordering our meal. It was delicious! She was warm, personable, and had a great sense of humor. We made many impromptu stops along the way to sample hot chocolate take a lot of photos, but Annie still managed to keep us on track so that we wouldn’t miss our train. I have done a fair amount of international traveling with different tour groups, and the experience you have may come down to the tour guide you have. We used Viator to book our tour, but no matter which tour company you make your tour reservations with, be sure to ask Annie. Happy travels!

If you are traveling to Shanghai and have some spare time the trip to Suzhou is easily captured in a day. Travelling by Bullet train it is a fast and easy trip to Suzhou to experience life in another time surrounded by locals in ancient costume, the trip to visit the local town and travel by boat down heritage canals is worth doing. As English is not widely spoken, Sunny’s private tour made our experience easy to navigate and removed any stress around communication. Suzhou is a bustling town which can be quite overwhelming as it is a tourist hub for internal Chinese tourists so can be quite busy. I would recommend Sunny who had a vast knowledge of the local history of Suzhou.

This trip was one of the best I had in my entire time in China. The sights in Suzhou are truly beautiful, the experience of riding a bullet train is great, and the guide is amazing! My guide was Ruby, she had great knowledge, was extremely nice and helpful, and was overall a great person! :) I can 100% recommend this tour to anyone!

I went a day with my colleagues to suzhou. Annie guided us so well throughout the trip. She explained everything along the day and on site. A nice way to escape from bustling Shanghai

We loved our private day tour with Ruby. My husband and I were visiting Shanghai and Suzhou for the first time, and the entire tour was incredible. Ruby was super prompt to pick us up from our hotel lobby, and she created a wonderful itinerary for us. I had requested if we could see Shantang street in the evening and I sent a teahouse I had seen online as a potential stop during our trip, and she made sure to personalize our tour to all of our requests. They even accommodated a later start time in order to let us see Suzhou at night. Ruby's personality was super friendly and approachable, and she made sure to give us a ton of context on the history and background of many of the sites we saw. I'm so glad we had her along to get a much deeper level of understanding of the history behind Suzhou. At the end of the evening, she brought us to a restaurant that had the most delicious shenjianbao I've ever had in my life. At the end, she made sure that we got back to Shanghai in one piece, and even had a driver send us back to our hotel. Would definitely recommend her tour to anyone!

The tour was great, we had fun. Feifei, our beautiful tour guide was the most engaging, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and patient guide we have ever had. Not only did she have amazing recommendations, she had a genuine interest in us and a clear passion for the locations and history. She is a priceless person and the ultimate guide.

Ruby was a fantastic guide who picked us up from the lobby area of our hotel. She was warm welcoming and friendly and put us at ease straight away. We took the bullet train to Suzhou which was a quick and memorable way to transport out of Shanghai. We went to private gardens, through canals, stopped for food which was the best meal of our trip and finally took a canal boat. Ruby is an excellent guide, really friendly, knowledgeable and answered all our questions. The trip was certainly made better in her company and the trip was very well organised. If you are in Shanghai and want to experience more of what China has to offer then we would highly recommend taking this tour as we’d now like to explore other parts of China. Thanks so much Ruby!!

Annie was fabulous!!! Our tour of Suzhou was everything we expected and more!!Annie took special care of us from pickup @ drop off @ the hotel she was so knowledgeable about Chinese culture, I walked away, feeling like an expert in Chinese history..

We bought a last-minute day trip and couldn’t be any happier with the service provided as well as the customization needed to avoid large crowds on a Friday- we went to a different garden instead. Sunny is very lovely and we enjoyed our trip and her guide very much. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in getting a private experience!

Nice trip with my tour leader guide Sunny .we saw beautiful garden, shopping around for fun and very enjoyable boat ride in the ancient ,delicious lunch! Driver is also very nice in suzhou always on time to take us to next spot car is very clean and comforable,driver also friendly. Bullet train is also efficient and fast from Shanghai and back to Shanghai. A wonderful day out.

Suzhou is worth a visit—even for a day .We had a great tour guide Annie on this tour who explained in detail and took us to see many beautiful places.

Sunny Tours helped arranged a great tour that covered the highlights of Suzhou while understanding that my parents couldn't do aggressive and long walking. We managed to see the impressive Master of Net Garden, have a quick peek at the Tiger Hill (Pagoda), took a boat ride along the Grand Canal, and took a walk along Shanhgtang Street. The Bullet Train ride was also very smooth and fast. Might recommend that you try to do the tour by car to have more time to explore. Although it takes longer to get to Suzhou, you will have more flexible.

Comfortable 6 seaters car for our 2 hours ride Shanghai to Suzhou. Went to The Master Net Garden, historical beautiful garden and the details were well explained by Rita, our guide 👍. Boat ride across canal, viewing The Venice of Asia. Delicious Suzhou cuisine lunch.

I went to this Suzhou private day tour with my teenage son. The tour guide Annie was extremely helpful during the entire trip, helping us navigate through various sights and was very accommodating to our requests. The tour was organized to ease many of the restrictions for foreign visitors. We really enjoyed the trip and highly recommend it.

It was a wonderful experience with sunny to visit suzhou she made the trip so comfortable place is worth visiting though i was having less time but she planned it very properly and we covered everything 👍👍👍

Though it’s with light drizzle during some parts of the trip, but Suzhou is still very beautiful with the rain in Spring. Our guide Ruby is knowledgeable with good details of each place and the trip is well arranged. I will recommend this tour.

Views were great! Tour guide (Annie) was professional, fun, and patient with me. Found a restaurant with authentic food options. Would recommend!

I had an excellent experience in Suzhou, from pickup to drop off. I was able to visit what I wanted and tailor the tour. Sunny was excellent at explaining key facts and helping me with translation with vendors. We stayed away from busy touristy areas and focused the itinerary. The attractions in Suzhou are a bit far apart, yet transportation between them was smooth. I highly recommend this tour.

Thank you so much for the experience, we had a great time, bullet train was amazing and the river boat absolutely beautiful, guide was lovely and very knowledgeable
