A great day!

Audrey was awesome. Thank gawd for Audrey’s flag, it was super hot so we were definitely lacking behind but could see her a mile away 🤣 Had a great day exploring all the sites and learning about what’s what. The shared lunch at the water town was excellent. Found the greatest little bar at the water town, head over the ancient bridge to the newer kind of shops to the left of the markets. Head down the path and they are on the right. Drinks were cold, they were the only business with a toilet and the staff were brilliant. Thank you!

Hot and busy

It was very hot day and raining as well. Lunch was average. Very crowded and spent too long in the tea shop. Over all was okay 👍

JULIAN_C · August 2026

Stunning, overwhelming, and unforgettable

5/5 maximum recommend. Few tips for others, this is a physically arduous tour and some seemed unprepared. It was likely upwards of 25k steps. Anytime in the summer it will be very hot and you will be outside almost all day. This isn't appropriate for kids under 7 or so, and is not stroller or handicap accessible. Several parents on my tour found out the hard way. That said, this is an amazing day, absolutely unforgettable. And oh, I got a tad lost in the water town, signage isn't great, and remember GPS maps in China are all off by 50-100m. Do this.

Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your positive feedback and for choosing MUBUS! We're pleased to hear you loved the trip. Your kind words mean a lot to our team. Hope to host you on another tour soon!— The MUBUS Team

ZhujiajiaoWaterTown+Yu Garden+City GodTemple+the Bund(Waitan)Tour: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Shanghai.

How much does ZhujiajiaoWaterTown+Yu Garden+City GodTemple+the Bund(Waitan)Tour cost?

+

Prices start at $67 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Shanghai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does ZhujiajiaoWaterTown+Yu Garden+City GodTemple+the Bund(Waitan)Tour take?

+

Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Shanghai is not rushed.

Is ZhujiajiaoWaterTown+Yu Garden+City GodTemple+the Bund(Waitan)Tour worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 30 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Shanghai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule ZhujiajiaoWaterTown+Yu Garden+City GodTemple+the Bund(Waitan)Tour?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is ZhujiajiaoWaterTown+Yu Garden+City GodTemple+the Bund(Waitan)Tour suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book ZhujiajiaoWaterTown+Yu Garden+City GodTemple+the Bund(Waitan)Tour?

+

Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Shanghai can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Shanghai and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does ZhujiajiaoWaterTown+Yu Garden+City GodTemple+the Bund(Waitan)Tour start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Shanghai within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Shanghai?

+

On Outty we rank every Shanghai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Shanghai Full Day City Tour with Old and New Highlights, Suzhou Private Day Trip from Shanghai with Bullet Train Option, 4-Hour Flexible Private Shanghai City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Shanghai?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Shanghai?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
