long way to go but was well worth the visit, beautiful scenery really enjoyed it.
We had a great time,hangzhou is a nice city, but not small!! Helen our tour guide was awesome, she knew everything and could answer all our questions.
Weather was misty so did not experience beautifull colours of scenery - but still a wonderfull day excursion - West Lake should not be missed
Weather not good but my guide kept me entertained and informed. The Peony festival was beautiful and the mist gave the feeling of the old warriors being away in the distance. I will definitely go back again.
Long drive but well worth it. We thoroughly enjoyed it and the scenery is magnificent especially West Lake. Tea Village is another recommended experience with genuine tea and reasonably cheap compared to central Shanghai prices. Well informed tour guide. Worth every penny.
It's true that the trip by bus is very long, 2.5 hours, but it worth it. The places are amazing, really beautiful. The pagoda is incredible. I would like to spend more time there to go to the top of the building, later you go to the Tea Village. I loved learning everything about the different kinds of green tea and its properties, here I only bought one bottle of the very good tea for 300 RMB. Now I realize that I had to buy more because in Shanghai it is more expensive, the good one. And finally we went to the West Lake, now I understand the name 'Heaven on Earth', everybody should go there. Our guide was great, really friendly and helpful!!! He made the trip very interesting because he explained to us a lot of stories and legends about the places.
Hangzhou and West Lake are marvelous places to escape from the hustle and bustle of Shanghai. I experienced paradise.
Very good tour, did not fancy driving in China or anywhere near Shanghai, so this was an excellent way to see some of the beautiful scenery around Hangzhou.
Fantastic day trip - a must for people visiting Shanghai.
A really incredible experience. A great tour with a very good tour guide. I would recommend this tour very highly.
Worth its while
The tour was fantastic. Please cater for tourist who have special dietary requirements.
The drive time was very long in a small minibus which was a bit of a drawback. Otherwise a very enjoyable day.
Hangzhou is worth visiting. The bus ride is a little long and bumpy depending on the van or bus you get. Since we visited on the May Day holiday, the traffic conditions weren't ideal. We had a friendly tour guide.
Overall the trip was good, One thing need to be improved is the type of car/van. Total pax : 9. Plus 1 Driver + 1 Tour Guide, Hence 11 altogether. The van was considerable too small & cramped for this more than 3 hours / trip.
