Meet your private guide at your central Shanghai hotel at your preferred time. This private experience combines cycling and walking along the Huangpu River, taking you to Shanghai’s new Bund and local life beyond the city’s crowded tourist spots.

Once home to major industrial sites, the route still features traces of Shanghai’s industrial past, now blended with stylish waterfront spaces, contemporary art, culture and local life. It’s a unique way to experience the old and new sides of Shanghai together.
