Pick up from Shanghai Wusongkou or Baoshan Port according to the cruise arrival time, transfer to downtown area for a highlight city tour. The tour starts with the fabulous Yuyuan Garden for a taste of old Shanghai, Ming style gardens, with pavilions, streams, and pools. Don't miss the huge Dragon Wall (the dragon is protecting the garden), red fish swimming in the Lotus Pool, or the zig-zag Bridge of Nine Turns – the zig-zags foil the demons (who don't turn corners very well).

Then you will visit Old City area, there is a local market where you can buy silk umbrellas, calligraphy, Chinese toys, paper dragons, embroidery. Followed by a leisure stroll through the bustle and hustle Nanjing Road and then enjoy a walk tour through the Bund lined with exotic building clusters at the west bank of the Huangpu River. You can watch the ships go by on the river, boats large and small, barges and ferries (there are telescopes for closer views). Just imagine the Bund a century ago, teeming with junks and sampans, loading and unloading at the wharves.

On the east bank of Huangpu River is Lujiazui financial center of Pudong Area. There are many world famous skyscrapers like the Oriental TV Tower, Shanghai World Financial Center, Jin Mao Tower, etc. If time permit, you may pay a visit to them (entrance tickets at your own). Transfer back to Shanghai Wusongkou or Baoshan Port 2hrs before your cruise departure time.
