Shanghai: Old Town, Yu Garden, Zhujiajiao Water Town Bus Tour｜China

Explore Shanghai Old Town, Yu Garden, and Zhujiajiao Water Town on a guided day tour designed for travelers who want an easier way to see both the city and a historic water town. You can choose between a value-focused bus tour and a private option with hotel pickup and extra comfort.

With an English-speaking guide, entrance tickets, arranged transport, and local lunch included, this tour offers a practical way to cover several of Shanghai’s best-known highlights in one day. Discover the contrast between old streets, a classical garden, traditional canals, and the city’s famous waterfront skyline without having to manage the logistics yourself.

After meeting your guide in central Shanghai or being picked up from your hotel, begin with a visit to Shanghai Old Town and Yu Garden. Then travel to Zhujiajiao Water Town, where you’ll enjoy a local lunch and explore old lanes, stone bridges, and canal-side scenery. Guests who choose the private option will also enjoy a hand-rowed boat ride in Zhujiajiao.

Later, return to Shanghai and arrive at the Bund, where your guide will share the history of this iconic waterfront area and its famous World Architecture Gallery. The official tour ends at the Bund, giving you time to continue exploring independently and enjoy the evening at your own pace.

This tour is ideal for first-time visitors and travelers who want a clear, efficient itinerary with English guidance. It may be less suitable for guests seeking a slow-paced visit, a fully customized experience on every option, or a long guided Bund night tour. Please note that the bus option does not include hotel pickup or a boat ride, and all guests should bring their original passport for entry.
