Reviews: Shanghai Huangpu River Night Cruise Ticket includes a buffet dinner; you can choose between the Dragon Boat or the Crystal Princess cruise ship at Pier 3, Shiliupu.
Guest User2026-05-30
If you're visiting Shanghai, a night cruise on the Huangpu River is something you simply shouldn't miss. My partner and I booked the evening cruise with buffet dinner, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our time in the city. From the moment we boarded at Pier 3, Shiliupu, the experience felt special. As the ship pulled away from the dock, Shanghai's skyline began to light up around us. Seeing the illuminated skyscrapers of Pudong on one side and the historic buildings of the Bund on the other created a stunning contrast between old and new Shanghai. We spent much of the cruise on the outdoor deck taking photos and admiring the views. The city looks completely different at night, with colourful lights reflecting across the river and famous landmarks glowing against the skyline. It was easily one of the most impressive urban views we experienced anywhere in China. The buffet dinner was a welcome addition to the trip. There was a good variety of dishes available, allowing us

The cruise was great. It offers one of the longest tour routes along the buns. It was quite enjoyable to ride up and down the river enjoying the view.

Reviews: Shanghai Huangpu River cruise: Night cruise on a large ship [Dragon Boat/Crystal Princess luxury cruise (optional buffet dinner/private banquet room + night cruise)]
Guest User2026-04-05
I was thrilled with the excursion. The organization, the cruise, and the food were all top-notch. We arrived at the pier at 5:00 PM, as stated in the description. We picked up our tickets at the ticket office and boarded. First, as stated in the program, was dinner. The buffet was wonderful – everything was delicious, fresh, and varied. After dinner, there was a cruise around Shanghai at night. The views were undoubtedly breathtaking. You can go out on deck and enjoy the scenery. Arrival, as stated, was at 9:00 PM.
