When to visit and how long

Best seasons
Spring (Mar–May) and autumn (Sep–Nov) offer comfortable weather and clearer views. Summer is hot/humid with afternoon showers; winter is chilly but crowd levels are lower. Avoid peak national holidays (Chinese New Year; early May; Golden Week in early Oct) or book well in advance.

How many days

2 days: City essentials (Bund, Old Town/Yu Garden, French Concession) + one evening activity.
3 days: Add a full day at Disneyland or a water town.
4 days: Deeper neighborhoods/museums + skyline deck and river cruise.
5 days: Combine Suzhou and Hangzhou for the classic Jiangnan loop.

Logistics cheatsheet

Airports & pick-ups: PVG (Pudong) handles most international flights; SHA (Hongqiao) is closer to downtown and high-speed rail. Private tours include hotel pick-up/drop-off; we can match airport, rail and hotel times.
Where to stay:
- The Bund – heritage vibe, night views, easy riverfront walks.
- Lujiazui – modern skyline, malls, observatories.
- Former French Concession – cafés, tree-lined streets, boutique stays.
Getting around: Subways are extensive; your private car connects farther sights and day trips (Disneyland, water towns, Suzhou/Hangzhou).
Tickets & timing: Popular spots (Disneyland, observatories) use dated entries; we handle tickets and time slots to avoid long queues.
Kids & seniors: Stroller-friendly routes, mid-day breaks, and elevator access at key venues can be arranged on all tours.

FAQ

How many days in Shanghai is enough?
For first-timers, 2–3 days cover core highlights. Add a 3rd day for Disneyland or a water town; 4–5 days if you want Suzhou/Hangzhou. We’ll tailor the pace to your group.

Is Shanghai Disneyland worth a full day?
Yes—rides, shows and the nighttime spectacular reward a full day, especially for families. We plan early entry, parade timing and return transfers to keep it easy.

Which water town is better—Wuzhen, Tongli or Zhujiajiao?

Wuzhen: most complete “museum-like” canals; longer day.
Tongli: elegant bridges + gardens; pairs well with Suzhou.
Zhujiajiao: closest to downtown; half-day option. We’ll match to your schedule.

Can we start in Shanghai and end in Suzhou or Hangzhou?
Absolutely. Many guests start in Shanghai, then transfer by private car or high-speed rail to Suzhou/Hangzhou and fly out from there. We can move luggage and align tickets.

Best areas to stay for first-timers?
Bund (views/walkability), Lujiazui (modern skyline, malls) and Former French Concession (charming streets, cafés). Tell us your style—we’ll suggest hotels that fit your plan.

Do you arrange trains, Disney tickets and observatory entries?
Yes. We book high-speed rail, Disneyland dated tickets and timed entries for observatories, and sync them with your daily route to avoid bottlenecks.
