Reviews: Shanghai Huangpu River night cruise ticket, including buffet dinner, with optional Dragon Boat or Crystal Princess departing from Shiliupu Pier 3
Guest User2026-05-30
If you're visiting Shanghai, a night cruise on the Huangpu River is something you simply shouldn't miss. My partner and I booked the evening cruise with buffet dinner, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our time in the city. From the moment we boarded at Pier 3, Shiliupu, the experience felt special. As the ship pulled away from the dock, Shanghai's skyline began to light up around us. Seeing the illuminated skyscrapers of Pudong on one side and the historic buildings of the Bund on the other created a stunning contrast between old and new Shanghai. We spent much of the cruise on the outdoor deck taking photos and admiring the views. The city looks completely different at night, with colourful lights reflecting across the river and famous landmarks glowing against the skyline. It was easily one of the most impressive urban views we experienced anywhere in China. The buffet dinner was a welcome addition to the trip. There was a good variety of dishes available, allowing us

Reviews: Shanghai Huangpu River nightlife sightseeing cruise ticket - 45 min essence route (Bund + Lujiazui panoramic night tour)
Guest User2026-06-21
A wonderful experience. I recommend arriving half an hour early and getting the best seats. They offer a table and chairs for 100 yuan per person, but I highly recommend it. The cruise is truly pleasant and relaxing. If it weren't for the usual people shouting for a photo shoot with tablets, it would be even better.

Reviews: Flexible Half Day Tour to Zhujiajiao Water Town with Boat Ride from Shanghai
Guest User2024-07-17
The tour beautifully balanced history and modernity. Zhujiajiao Water Town and the French Concession showcased Shanghai's rich past, while the Bund and the Peace Hotel exemplified the city's vibrant present. The seamless blend of these elements made for a fascinating and informative journey.

Reviews: Shanghai Metro Line 14: Jingan Temple + Xintiandi + Yu Garden + Oriental Pearl Radio & Television Tower + Huangpu River Cruise
Guest User2026-06-12
We loved everything. A big thank you to our guide, Vasya, who led us on a truly engaging tour of the most beautiful places. He showed us great photo angles, took some really beautiful photos of us, and took great care of us throughout the entire tour. He showed us where to find delicious and inexpensive food. There were only two of us in the group, so it was a private tour for my husband and me, which was very convenient. At the end of the tour, Vasya put us on the boat, explained how to get back to the hotel, and said he was always available to help if we needed anything. We highly recommend this tour and, of course, our guide, Vasya.

Reviews: Shanghai Huangpu River cruise: Night cruise on a large ship [Dragon Boat/Crystal Princess luxury cruise (optional buffet dinner/private banquet room + night cruise)]
Guest User2026-04-05
I was thrilled with the excursion. The organization, the cruise, and the food were all top-notch. We arrived at the pier at 5:00 PM, as stated in the description. We picked up our tickets at the ticket office and boarded. First, as stated in the program, was dinner. The buffet was wonderful – everything was delicious, fresh, and varied. After dinner, there was a cruise around Shanghai at night. The views were undoubtedly breathtaking. You can go out on deck and enjoy the scenery. Arrival, as stated, was at 9:00 PM.
