Relaxed way to understand more about the city with a local guide that shows you some great locations and to get a feel about life in Shanghai. Fang Fang was the best guide, showing us her city along bike friendly roads and viewpoints. We notified the team that we were going to be 20min late, and they promptly arranged a tour for us once we finally arrived!

Nice bike ride with guide on the chaotic streets of Shanghai

Sonja_W, Sep 2019

Mei was our very enthusiastic guide, and her English was excellent. She was very informative and a good shepherd through the heart of the city. She's got some hookups so we got to ride in some usually-inaccessible places, which was very cool. The entire ride was about 15 miles, so make sure you're in good enough shape for that. The bikes are urban cruisers with one speed, but there were only really one or two short hills to negotiate. It's VERY urban, and though there is much less traffic at night you still have to be somewhat confident riding among cars and scooters. You WILL be riding in a place where road users do not always follow the rules (a category you may also fall under at some points during the tour). It's not really a foodie tour--we only stopped at one dumpling restaurant and shared some large plates of jiaozi. It was more of an overview of history tour with a few photo ops and one dinner-like stop. It's a good tour to get a light history of Shanghai and to decide on the sights you want to explore more on your own later. The start/end point is pretty far north of everything, so the first and last 3 miles seem kind of a waste. It would be much better to start closer to the center. Towards the end it felt like we were just racing back to the start point (the end time varies based on how long the group chooses to linger at each stop, etc. but we got back at 10:45pm). The group was stretched out over some distance by then, as some were too tired to keep up with Mei's pace. But we all regrouped at the finish. The tour does end pretty late, so be prepared for the fact that the subway may be closed and to take a taxi or Didi (Chinese Uber).

Wonderful tour, amazing experience.

The tour took us around different areas of Shanghai, showing us the history of the city and how it has changed over time. We had a lot of fun, it was relaxed and the bikes were great. The tour allowed us to plan out what to do for the rest of our time in Shanghai. Stro fly recommend starting your visit to this city with this tour.

Mayfer is ABSOLUTELY the tour guide...

Max_Y, Jul 2018

Mayfer is ABSOLUTELY the tour guide for you if you want a rollicking great time. She speaks good English, takes you on a really nice long tour, gives you tons of neat anecdotes and is generally hilarious. Get ready for a workout though....you really get your moneys worth on this bike tour. She also stops whenever and wherever you want, in case you want to grab a bite, drink or dance on the street with locals! Definitely ask for Mayfer if you can though :

This is the 2th tour I've booked...

Hannu T, May 2018

This is the 2th tour I've booked with Viator - the first of Shanghai Nightlife adventure. Visiting the Old Jazz Bar which rated by US Newsweek magazine as the worlds most famous jazz bar and Xintiandi district was amazing! I especially enjoy night market in old downtow and the seafood barbecue street. Our guide Shasha spoke very good English and was very knowledgeable about the history of each site we visited. I really enjoyed my trip to see these breathtaking sights and lights of Shanghai when night falls. Viator made sure I had a good tour at a good price.Highly recommend to anyone traveling to Shanghai!

I only booked this tour the day...

Robert T, Apr 2018

I only booked this tour the day before. We had just over 4 hours cycling around some of the best places in Shanghai some hidden gems. Mayfer, my tour guide knew the history of Shanghai, and we stopped plenty of times to take photos or to explore on foot. In addition, even though the traffic in Shanghai looks crazy, Mayfer knew lots of quiet roads, and most car drivers gave us plenty of space. Great tour, highly recommended. Make sure you take a camera.
