Welcome to Shanghai! Upon arrival at Shanghai Pudong International Airport or Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport, meet your transfer representative and travel by private vehicle to your hotel. The remainder of the day is free to rest and settle in. If you arrive early, enjoy a gentle walk near your hotel or sample local cuisine at a nearby restaurant. No timed sightseeing is scheduled, allowing flexibility for your arrival.

Begin with your English-speaking guide at Yu Garden, exploring its landscaped courtyards, pavilions, and ponds before browsing the surrounding Yuyuan Bazaar. After a lunch break, stroll through a selected area of the former French Concession, with time to appreciate its leafy streets and neighborhood cafés. Finish at the Bund, where historic waterfront buildings face the modern Pudong skyline across the Huangpu River.

After breakfast, travel by private vehicle to Zhujiajiao Water Town. Explore its canal-side lanes, cross traditional stone bridges, and browse small shops with your guide. An optional boat ride offers a different perspective on the town’s waterways. After a leisurely lunch break, return to Shanghai with time to freshen up and have dinner.

In the evening, visit the Shanghai Tower observation deck to admire the city’s illuminated skyline before returning to your hotel.

Enjoy a relaxed final morning in Shanghai, depending on your flight schedule. You may choose to browse nearby shops, stop at a café, or take a short self-guided walk before checking out. At the arranged time, meet your driver for a private transfer to the airport. For an early departure, transfer directly from your hotel without additional activities.
