My family and I booked this tour and we were the only English speaking guest. This didn’t impact the experience at all! Our guide used WeChat to communicate with us, and made sure we were comfortable and felt apart of the group. This package was amazing and my family and I had a great time!

We had a wonderful day visiting Wuzhen thanks to our local guide, Ms Sun. From the moment we arrived, she shared fascinating stories about the town’s rich history, culture, and traditions, making every corner come alive. Her warm personality, patience, and attention to detail ensured that our trip was smooth, enjoyable, and memorable. She was always happy to answer questions and recommended excellent spots for photos and local delicacies. Wuzhen is beautiful on its own, but her knowledge and enthusiasm made the experience truly special. Thank you for your professionalism and hospitality—we highly recommend her to anyone visiting Wuzhen.

This tour was good and organised. The tour was conducted in Chinese and the guide explained very well. She was helpful and knowledgeable. the guide will contact you in advance to advice you where to meet. as we want to have a glimpse of Hangzhou, we join this tour as half day trip as we travelled from Shanghai to Hangzhou. Timing is doable.

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.

perfect day trip outside the city, 1.5 hours to get out of the city and enter the past. We made the most beautiful photos! had the kids dress up and had a wonderful day. Mr. Nathan was a wonder guide very well informed and made us a lovely itinerary. thank you

I felt the time spent at West Lake was a bit short; after all, trying to complete the entire itinerary in one day inevitably felt a little rushed. Overall, the transportation and tour guide services were very well executed, and I highly recommend this tour for those planning a one-day trip.
