Local Buses
Shanghai buses run everywhere, but they are unbelievably crowded, especially during the early morning and late evening rush hours; they are extremely slow owing to the grotesque traffic congestion in the city; and few lines run the long distances needed to travel from one side of the city to the other. They operate from around 4am to 10.30pm , although each line has its own schedule. Fares are generally ¥1 for regular buses and ¥2 for air-conditioned ones; buy your ticket from the conductor on the bus. Carrying exact change will eliminate a lot of hassle. You can dial 160-881-60 for checking the bus route information (the service is in Chinese only and charges ¥1/min.).
Tour Bus
There are several tour bus lines that take you traveling around the city. There are also buses that go to trips in other destinations like Suzhou , Hangzhou , etc. There are various options from 1 day to 3 night tours with or without tour guides.
