2.4-Hour Nightlife Adventure & Tasting Bike Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 81 reviews · from $45

Spend about 3.5 hours cycling Shanghai after dark with an English-speaking guide such as May, Mayfer, Julie, or Jenny. See both sides of the Huangpu River, the Bund, Yu Garden’s night market, Xintiandi, and the Former French Concession, then stop for a popular local snack. Expect city traffic, steady riding, and a relaxed but active pace.

“We had a great time with May exploring Shanghai! This tour is very focused on seeing the main highlights while riding around. You do stop and get a delicious snack along the way. Overall this was a blast and one does have to embrace the chaos of the streets to fully enjoy it. May was great at explaining what to expect and took some fun photos.”
