Description
✨Choose from Three Cruise Options
1. Cruise Ticket Only
Enjoy the Huangpu River night cruise at your own pace. Upon arrival at the designated meeting point, simply show your QR code to the staff to exchange your ticket, then proceed to the pier and board the cruise on your own.
2. Cruise Ticket + Guide Assistance
Meet your English-speaking guide at the designated meeting point and board the cruise together with the group. The guide will provide a brief introduction during boarding, followed by approximately 5–10 minutes of commentary onboard. Photo assistance using your phone is also included. This option is ideal for travelers who would like some guidance and assistance without requiring a guide throughout the cruise.

Upgrade to the VIP package for access to the VIP viewing area and a more comfortable sightseeing experience. Your English-speaking guide will accompany you throughout the cruise and provide live commentary through a headset, introducing the famous landmarks and city views along the way. Photo assistance is also included to help you capture memorable moments.
