Car service - good responsible driver and great cars
Organized, good communication from the company. Had helpful, safe driver and able to figure out confusing address information. Great modern cars - clean and with waters. Handled our bags and the car with care. Made sure we could successfully check into hotel before leaving. Responsible! Would use again!
Response from the operator: Dear Erik, Thank you for your thoughtful and detailed review. We are delighted that our communication, safe driver, and careful assistance made your arrival easy.

Great experience
My experience started with them confirming my reservations and flight information the day prior. The driver was on time and had my name professionally displayed. The entire experience especially being in China for the first time, was great and made my stress level at a very low. I would use this company again and would strongly recommend themZ

Use Damon when in Shanghai.
Using DAMON ( +86 186 5268 5201 ) as a driver for our transfer from Pudong International Airport to the city of Shanghai was a masterstroke. His English is more than functional and his communication via the Get Your Guide app was excellent. I highly recommend Damon as your driver for transfers to the airports or cruise ship terminal when visiting Shanghai. Pricing is up front and more than reasonable. Damon offers local knowledge with a friendly, caring nature.
Response from the operator: Hi Richard, Thanks a ton for your fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that Damon made your transfer from Pudong International Airport a smooth and enjoyable experience. It sounds like his communication and local knowledge really added to your trip! We appreciate your recommendation and are glad you found the pricing reasonable. If you’re ever back in Shanghai or planning another adventure, we’d love to help you out again! Safe travels, Trippest Customer Service Team

Why this scores 71
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Arrival Transfer: Shanghai Pudong Airport (PVG) to Hotel: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Shanghai.
How much does Private Arrival Transfer: Shanghai Pudong Airport (PVG) to Hotel cost?
+
Prices start at $20 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Shanghai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Arrival Transfer: Shanghai Pudong Airport (PVG) to Hotel take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Shanghai is not rushed.
Is Private Arrival Transfer: Shanghai Pudong Airport (PVG) to Hotel worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 26 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Shanghai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Arrival Transfer: Shanghai Pudong Airport (PVG) to Hotel?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Arrival Transfer: Shanghai Pudong Airport (PVG) to Hotel suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Arrival Transfer: Shanghai Pudong Airport (PVG) to Hotel?
+
Around 9 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Shanghai can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Shanghai and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Arrival Transfer: Shanghai Pudong Airport (PVG) to Hotel start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Shanghai within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Shanghai?
+
On Outty we rank every Shanghai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Shanghai Full Day City Tour with Old and New Highlights, Suzhou Private Day Trip from Shanghai with Bullet Train Option, 4-Hour Flexible Private Shanghai City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Shanghai?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Shanghai?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
