Lonely Planet review for Bund Sightseeing Tunnel

A 647m voyage with entertainment from budget effects, garish lighting and dreadful props, the Bund Sightseeing Tunnel is a transport mode that guarantees to get you to Pǔdōng in an altered state. Stepping from the trains at the terminus, visitors are visibly nonplussed, their disbelief surpassed only by those with return tickets. Connoisseurs of unabashed cheesiness will love it.

    laughable - not even kitschy-fun...

    leemarklanes does not recommend this,

    Bund Tourist Tunnel. A slow-moving tram, through a comically low-tech tunnel of antiquated 80's era rope lights, lasers and car dealership ilk inflatables -- narrated only by a psychotic stream of random words. Something that might have been interesting at the 1964 World's Fair, or a quarter-operated Chuck E. Cheese, but would bore even the most provincial child today. The exit is a cavalcade of disappointed tourists looking for their money back. It is marketed as a Sightseeing Tunnel, but at ¥40 - the cost of a decent meal [comparable to ¥4 for a subway anywhere in the city]- it should be made clear there is no information, history or value-added to the trip, unless epilepsy is your idea of tourism. Not recommended for those sensitive to the strobe lights or mediocrity. ¥40.
