Experience the past, present and future of China all at once!
The Huangpu River splits Shanghai into two districts: Pudong and Puxi. The Pudong skyline with stunning tall buildings like Shanghai Tower, Shanghai World Financial Center and Oriental Pearl TV Tower gives you a flourishing scene of modern Shanghai. On the Puxi side, walk along the Bund to get a taste of old Shanghai. What a huge contrast!

Dear Wonder,
we had a fantastic cruise. The ship was super modern, cruising was very smooth due to the electric engine. The crew was very friendly and nice - Cruise manager Alan welcomed us on board and helped us with any question we had. Food on board was delicious and the excursions were nice. So all in all it was a great experience and I would recommend anybody to do such a cruise.
Thank you also very much for a smooth and easy booking process.
Kind regards,
Christian
