Hangzhou Excursions d'un dia

I chose a guided tour mainly because, after researching, I found that the cost was about the same as traveling independently with multiple transfers. Not having to transfer was fantastic. This time, our tour guide, Xiao Fang, guided us through Wuzhen East柵 and led us into the Nanxun Scenic Area. Although the combined tour resulted in a large crowd, requiring us to stay very close to hear the guide properly (I constantly heard 'You have fallen behind' from my headset), it definitely added much more depth to the travel experience compared to just wandering around on our own and listening to a guide. True to the itinerary description, lunch, tour headsets, and the boat cruise were not included in the tour fee. Lunch was filling and might only be considered specialty food for foreigners, but the other two items are highly recommended for optional purchase. There were some foreigners in our group, which I felt slightly detracted from the overall experience, but purely from the perspective of a shared shuttle tour, it was actually quite alright. Aside from the riverside and bridges in East Zha, I also highly recommend going inside the Hongyuantai Dye Workshop for photos; since we visited on a weekend, the alleys should have been great for photos too otherwise. As for Nanxun, following Tour Guide Xiao Fang's advice, we headed straight to the Hundred-Jian Building. The walk was a bit far, and at one point I wondered why I had suddenly left the tourist area, but it was truly worth seeing. If you have plenty of time and a travel companion, I highly recommend finding a place to sit down, dine by the river, and enjoy the beautiful scenery. The Ding Sheng cake is also recommended to try (I bought it freshly steamed and it was quite good). The night offers a completely different scenery, and I originally chose this tour because it included viewing the night view. Overall, the experience was pretty good.

Era un autobús ple de turistes i a tot arreu on anàvem, estava ple de gent. Però el guia, Chen Lei, va fer molt bona feina assegurant-se que ningú es perdés mentre caminàvem pels carrers, creuàvem les carreteres i ens obríem pas entre la multitud de gent. Hi havia una tarifa addicional de 110 CNY per persona. 40 per dinar en un restaurant bufet que era bàsicament com els jocs de la fam: centenars de persones amuntegant-se per aconseguir menjar. 10 per l'auricular per escoltar el guia, això és útil. 60 per al passeig en vaixell i una petita actuació musical de Suzhou.

It was a great experience and many beautiful places were shown. As I am not able to speak chinese I could not fully understand the historical explanations, but the guide (and the translator) helped me a lot to experience it!

Excursió perfecta fora de la ciutat, a 1,5 hores per sortir de la ciutat i endinsar-se en el passat. Vam fer les fotos més boniques! Vam disfressar els nens i vam passar un dia meravellós. El senyor Nathan va ser un guia meravellós, molt ben informat i ens va fer un itinerari encantador. Gràcies.

A good choice for a quick day trip tour if you are staying at Shanghai and would like to explore nearby city - Hangzhou. The tour guides 余导 and 舒导 are friendly , approachable, knowledgeable in explaining the itineraries and history sites. The lunch menu is well arranged too

The weather gods were kind to us today and we had an amazing tour to Hangzhou where we visited the West lake, Lungyin temple and Faxi Temple before it poured down with rain on the car journey home. Jenny, the tour guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic and was always happy to take photos and explain not only the significance of the places we were at but also about life in both Shanghai and in China in general. The journey there and back was comfortable in a very nice car and the journey up to Faxi included catching a public bus, which was an adventure. Lunch is not included but time was given to have a sit down lunch with Jenny at our own expense. overall a good tour.

Aquesta excursió va ser bona i organitzada. Es va realitzar en xinès i la guia va explicar molt bé. Va ser servicial i coneixedora. La guia es posarà en contacte amb vosaltres amb antelació per indicar-vos el punt de trobada. Com que volíem tenir una visió general de Hangzhou, ens vam unir a aquesta excursió de mig dia, ja que viatjàvem de Xangai a Hangzhou. El temps és factible.

The west lake is attractive and immersive! I will come again if I’m at hangzhou. Overall, great experience.

Absolutely amazing experience. Our guide Levi did a great job showing us around and educating us on the historical significance of Suzhou and even stories about Shanghai. He gave us a reason to truly fall in love with the city and see its beauty. The comfortability of the travel and tour all make this well worth it. Very satisfied with my decision to do this for my mom. Thank you so much Levi ~~
