The Pearl of the Orient. Paris of the East. The City Upon the Sea. Shanghai has been known by many names since it was founded approximately 1,300 years ago. Today, it is one of the world’s most populous urban centers and a favorite travel destination among jetsetters from around the globe. It’s home to Shanghai Tower — the world’s second-tallest tower at 2,073 feet (632 meters) — but also boasts impressive Art Deco buildings from its prolific growth in the 1920s and 1930s, and plenty of historic architecture including Jing’an Temple.

Other signs of Shanghai’s transformation include areas such as the Bund, the city’s former “Wall Street,” which is now the site of exclusive boutiques, hotels and restaurants. Parks also embody the idea of old and new living in harmony throughout the city, including Yuyuan Garden, which epitomizes classic Suzhou-style landscaping, while Century Park is the city’s answer to New York’s Central Park.

On this DreamTrip to Shanghai, Platinum Members will be treated to a complimentary coupon for a course on Day 2 while you’re visiting the Shanghai Museum of Glass. Choose from one of the do-it-yourself craft courses such as glass painting, glass blowing or glass sculpting — then take your masterpiece home as a souvenir.

Life is great when you’re a Platinum Member!

Hotel Check-in Requirements

By booking this DreamTrip I understand that the hotel may request a credit card upon check-in. The hotel may request the credit card in order to: a) place a monetary hold of US$50-200; or b) hold for incidental, security or other charges. By booking, I acknowledge having received notice of this potential charge and accept that Rovia™ recommends a credit card rather than a debit or bank card be used in the event the hotel requests the card. I understand that any such request made by the hotel is outside of the control of Rovia and is strictly a hotel policy. Should I have questions concerning the hotel’s policy, I accept responsibility for contacting the hotel independent of Rovia.

Please contact Travel Support if you have special requests regarding bedding, meals or medical needs, or any other questions about this trip.

If you are unable to obtain the required identification and other documentation, the Cancellation Policy for this DreamTrip will apply.

Make sure that you request a name change or room change at least 31 or more days before the 1st day of your trip.

Each individual, including each child, who is coming along with you on your DreamTrip is required to have a booking prior to the commencement of the trip.

Also, pricing for children can vary, and may be higher than pricing for adults.
