Q & A

How long is the total cycling distance, and is it suitable for casual riders?
The route is about 15–18 km with plenty of stops, all on flat city streets. It's designed for relaxed sightseeing, not a workout. Even if you haven't cycled in a while, you'll be fine—the pace is gentle, and we take breaks every 20–30 minutes.
Are the bicycle and helmet included? What type of bike do you provide?
Yes, a well-maintained city bike and a helmet are included in the price. Our bikes are comfortable hybrid models perfect for city riding. You're welcome to bring your own helmet if you prefer. We'll also do a quick safety check before we set off.
Where do we meet? Is hotel pickup included, or do we need to get to the bike base ourselves?
We meet at the bike base near the former French Concession. We can arrange hotel pickup for a small additional fee, or you can take a taxi—the cost is reimbursable. The exact meeting point with photos will be sent a day before the tour.
Is the 30-minute paint fan experience in Huaihai Square included? Do we need to book it?
It's an optional hands-on activity, and the small material fee (usually around RMB 50) is paid directly to the studio. No advance booking is needed—your guide will check if you're interested on the spot and arrange it immediately.
Is cycling in Shanghai safe? Are there bike lanes?
The route follows mostly quiet streets in the former French Concession and dedicated riverside bike paths along the Bund. Your guide leads the way and keeps the group together. Helmets are mandatory, and we brief you on local riding etiquette before starting.
Can we adjust the route or spend more time at a particular spot?
Absolutely, this is a private tour. If you want to linger at Fuxing Park or skip Tianzifang, just tell your guide. We'll adapt the schedule to your interests on the fly.
