Booked the Hangzhou private day tour mostly to avoid planning it ourselves, good call. Getting there by business-class train was painless and set the tone. The time on West Lake and the Lingyin temples was the real draw and they let us swap an afternoon sight for a slower lakeside walk. We also liked that the whole thing felt organised without being rigid. Easy five stars from us.
