Booking this day tour from Shanghai to Hangzhou with the company was a decision I won’t regret. From the very beginning, the communication was clear and professional, ensuring all my questions were answered. The private driver picked us up punctually and navigated the highways smoothly, making the journey relaxing and stress-free. Upon arrival in Hangzhou, the itinerary was perfectly timed: a serene stroll along West Lake, including the mesmerizing Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon, offered a peaceful start. At Guo Garden, the classical architecture and delicate landscaping were beautifully explained, giving historical context that enriched the visit. At the Dragon Well Tea Plantation, I appreciated the hands-on demonstration of tea processing, which added a cultural layer to the trip. Walking along the Bamboo Lined Path at Yunqi was refreshing, providing a tranquil escape into nature. Finally, Hefang Street offered a perfect blend of shopping and local snacks, allowing a more casual and flexible experience before returning to Shanghai. The guide’s knowledge and attentiveness, combined with a smooth operation from the company and driver, made the day seamless and memorable.
