Din Tai Fung Dinner and VIP Class River Cruise Experience in Shanghai

2.Din Tai Fung Dinner and VIP Class River Cruise Experience in Shanghai

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 31 reviews · from $173

Spend an evening with a private guide and driver, see Shanghai from VIP seats on a 60-minute Huangpu River cruise, then eat xiaolongbao and other dishes at Din Tai Fung. Guides such as Sunny and Mason have earned strong praise for friendly service and clear English. Central hotel pickup is included.

“Very overpriced. River cruise was nice but pretty generic. The Dim Sum place was a chain and we got there super late, so they were about to close. Minimal explanation from our tour guide about the history of the city.”

“Jammer van het weer maar gelukkig kwam later toch nog een beetje zon. Fijn dat het met de speedboot was. Vond het eind het mooist, met beetje ondergaande zon, midden in de oceaan zeesterren bekijken. Was een mooi en romamtisch eind voor Valentijnsdag!”
