Day-by-Day Itinerary
Day 1 Arrival and Maglev Train Shanghai
Accommodation: Shanghai
Welcome to Shanghai, where the historic Bund and the Lujiazui skyline face each other across the Huangpu River. A quick note on your arrival airport: to enjoy the Maglev Train experience on Day 1, please book a flight into Shanghai Pudong International Airport. Your guide will meet you in the arrivals hall and ride the Maglev with you — one way — before accompanying you on to your hotel. Please send us your flight details in advance so we can arrange the pickup. If your flight lands at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport instead, our driver will take you straight to the hotel, and the Maglev ride will not be possible.
Day 2 Yu Garden and Shanghai Museum Shanghai
Meals: B/LAccommodation: Shanghai
Begin at Yu Garden, where rockeries, pavilions and ponds open a window onto old Shanghai (Please note that Yuyuan Garden closes on Mondays, except for public holidays. Should the scheduled visit fall on its closing day, it will be replaced by the City God Temple. No extra refund or compensation will be provided for this itinerary adjustment), then continue to the Shanghai Museum for its collection of Chinese art and antiquities. From there, walk the historic Bund, rise to the observation deck of Shanghai Tower for panoramic views across the city, and end the day with a stroll along lively Nanjing Road.
Day 3 Departure from Shanghai Shanghai
Meals: B
Spend the morning exploring Shanghai at your own pace — a last walk along the Bund, a quiet coffee in the old town, or a bit of last-minute shopping on Nanjing Road. At the agreed time, your driver will meet you at the hotel and transfer you to the airport for departure.
