Shanghai Cruise Port Location

Is the cruise port on Shanghai's River?

Is it near the Bund? What is within walkable distance to the cruise port?

Could we get on the Hop On-Hop Off bus at the cruise port?

It depends on which ship and cruise line. HAL usually docks near downtown Shanghai. The bigger ships (Princess , RCI , Celebrity etc) dock at the new cruise port in the main river .

The Shanghai Port International Cruise Terminal, located at what is known as the "North Bund" (500 Dongdaming Rd, Hongkou district) cannot take vessels much over 70 thousand tons.

The Hop-on Hop-off bus does not go to this location. If you dock here, it is about a 20 minute walk to the north end of The Bund and a little further to where you can catch the Hop-on Hop-off across from the Peace Hotel.

Otherwise, you will dock at the Wusongkou International Cruise Terminal in Baoshan District, about a 40 minute drive to The Bund or People's Square depending on traffic.

Thanks for the advice. We are on the HAL Volendam so i think we will be closer to the downtown area as suggested by Kamloops.

BTW hello Kamloops (we were on the Norway cruise with you to Murmansk and lots of trivia together!)

Hello Sansterre

Yes, Volendam does dock in the city center at the Shanghai Port International Cruise Terminal.

Attached is a photo I took of her on a previous Shanghai call.

Awesome photo. Thanks Stowaway!

We are on tours both days in port so not worrying about the HOHO bus, tho I find they are usually a great introduction to cities.
