Description

Your guide and private driver will pick you up at your hotel lobby in the evening and transfer you to the Huangpu River Cruise Terminal. Relax on an air-conditioned vehicle as you prepare for a scenic cruise along the Huangpu River.

During the cruise, you will see iconic landmarks such as the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, the World Financial Center, and Shanghai Tower.
