Huangpu River Cruise and Bund City Lights Evening Tour of Shanghai
Overview
The tour starts with an evening cruise on the Huangpu River, which divides the Bund into two sections, Pu Dong and Pu Xi, which mean “east of river” and “west of river”. Local people honor the Huangpu as Mother River, and as you view the lights and spectacle from the deck of your evening cruise, you will understand it.
After the cruise, we will enjoy a walk along the Bund on our way to the historically famous Peace Hotel, which served as the center of Shanghai’s nightlife in the 1920’s and 30’s. Then we will take a trolley tour to enjoy the magnificent night view of Nanjing Road.

The cruise was beautiful. A little less than an hr, the lights were spectacular, loved it! What I didn't enjoy was the tour and tour guide. The tour guide kept rushing, even asking her to take pics were pointless. She rushed everything. The after tour was less than 15 mins. Not worth the price. It would have been way cheaper to take a cab, buy my own ticket for the cruise then go to that shopping area to explore.wow a lovely thing to do Shanghai on show with the ever changing light show the tallest building in the world being the shanghai tower which the locals call the whisk the bottle opener, needle ,and the syringe next to that giving a spectacular light show ..approx $45 or Y220 about a 3/4 hour trip...

Bad experience. starting with the bad coordination in the schedule for the pick up at the hotel, the tour included a trip by train of tourism in nanjing and the visit to the lobby of the Peace Hotel, really waste of time. We had to wait 40 minutes for our tour on the river, which could have been avoided if we had arrived earlier to the dock or at least bought the tickets in advance. the guide Frank always walked like 5 meters before us very hurried without considering the participants. During the 40 minute wait he could have taken the opportunity to explain something about the city but he left us alone in the waiting room. We were called to get to the line very late and were placed in the middle of the boat, without the option of having a better view unless paying a VIP pass. I do not recommend the tour. It is preferable to take the metro or taxi and get there and take pictures of the lights from The Bund.
This tour was unfortunately affected by the national public holiday, which meant we missed our first boat and had to wait 40 minutes for the next. This tour was still a highlight of our Shanghai visit.

The boat was large and comfortable. We would recommend getting to the top or back of the boat for the best experience as the other areas are internal. The cruise is of adequate length and the view is amazing! Make sure your camera has a good night mode. I think this is the best way to see the bund and Huangpu River. It really set the tone of our visit! Love Shanghai!!
