Best The Bund Tours & Trips

The Bund is one of Shanghai’s most iconic landmarks. Located on the west bank of the Huangpu River, it is renowned for its rows of historic European-style buildings, which stand in stark contrast to the modern skyline of Lujiazui across the river. Once the financial and commercial hub of Shanghai, it is now one of the best spots for visitors to enjoy the city’s night views and take photos of the Oriental Pearl Tower and the surrounding skyscrapers.

A fantastic way to explore China!

Fantastic Tour with Diverse Experiences

Our 9-day journey through China was fantastic. Beijing’s historical sites, including the Silk Museum, were fascinating. The Terracotta Warriors in Xi'an were a major highlight, and the Li River cruise in Guilin was serene and picturesque. The Shanghai leg of the tour, including the Pearl Museum and the Bund, was a great way to finish. Everything was well-coordinated, and the guides provided excellent service throughout. Highly recommended!

FAQs about The Bund Tours

Which airport is closest to The Bund and how do I get there?

Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport is closer for domestic flights, while Pudong International Airport handles most international arrivals. From Pudong, take the Maglev train to Longyang Road, then transfer to Metro Line 2 directly to East Nanjing Road station. The walk to The Bund takes five minutes. Taxis are available but face heavy traffic during peak hours.

What is the best time of year to visit The Bund to avoid rain and crowds?

Visit between October and November for mild temperatures and minimal rainfall. Avoid the plum rain season in June and July, which brings persistent humidity and downpours. Winter months are cold but less crowded. Weekday mornings offer the clearest views before tour groups arrive. Check typhoon alerts if traveling between August and September.

Do I need a special pass or ticket to walk along The Bund promenade?

No ticket or pass is required to access The Bund promenade; it is open to the public twenty-four hours a day. However, entry to specific historic buildings like the Customs House Museum or observation decks such as the RockBund Art Center may require separate admission fees. Payment via WeChat Pay, Alipay, or cash is standard for these attractions.

Is it safe to walk around The Bund at night and what currency should I carry?

The Bund is generally safe at night with visible police presence and bright lighting. Carry Chinese Yuan (CNY) for small vendors, though major restaurants accept credit cards. Digital payments like Alipay and WeChat Pay are ubiquitous. Be cautious of pickpockets in dense crowds near the ferry terminal. Avoid unofficial currency exchange booths on side streets.
