Published on Feb, 2025
This is easily the best tour we have been on. The trip is incredibly well thought out from start to finish. Alana, the tour coordinator is friendly, responsive, very clear and detailed in her instructions. Berlin, our tour guide is excellent, personable and at the same time, a total professional. Her in-depth knowledge of the sites and Shanghai gave us great insights and a new appreciation of Chinese art and history. Transport from Shanghai and between sites was a breeze. Each site was breathtaking. The lunch venue was exceptional, we are still dreaming about the food we had on the day. Thank you again team for making this a memorable trip for us.

Very complete tour. It offers a variety of great sights in Hangzhou (scenic, cultural , and religious) plus the opportunity of experiencing first hand the impressive rail travel in China in a convenient way.

I had an amazing experience with this company. I unreservedly would recommend them. Our online tour coordinator (Alana) was responsive, clear, and detailed providing us with detailed itineraries and accommodating our requests (for extra time/dinner, food allergies, and upgraded bullet train tickets). Perhaps because we were traveling with 3 little kids and elderly grandparents (group of 8 total), they proactively arranged 2 minivans to take us (two drivers) so we didn't have to park far away and walk 20+minutes to the sights. Our tour guide Caroline was great with my Chinese parents and my English speaking kids. She had so many interesting stories and facts - it really helped us to appreciate the culture and what we were seeing. My kids even told me multiple times how this was a great tour. Caroline had great recommendations on where to go (and what was worth it) and matched my family's energy levels. She took us to a fabulous lunch and dinner place - clean, authentic, and absolutely delicious. Truly one of the best meals we've had in Shanghai. She was also very flexible based on how tired people's legs were and was able to anticipate when to make bookings or where to have cars waiting for us. She helped us cut through any confusion and made everything easy and stress-free. HangZhou in the winter wasn't too cold either (at least the day we went) and we were able to enjoy the place without crowds.
For Group Trip Planners Wanting a Day Off
Published on Dec, 2024
We went through this tour company to get around Suzhou before deciding to book with them to go to Hangzhou as well. Alana the coordinator was really good at planning our entire trip from our hotel lobby's turnstill to Hangzhou and finally back again. Judy saw that we made it to our station gate, Wen wen found us despite us going rogue finding a bathroom upon arrival and our mysteriously quiet shanghai driver found me right as we walked back out through the shanghai station gate when we returned. I'm honestly still a little shocked it went so smoothly. While we were a little sad we didn't get our previous guide Berlin, Wenwen was a Hangzhou local so she was also a wealth of knowledge on the local history, lifestyles, food, dialects, businesses, etc and we even got a chinese chengyu (idiom) lesson. Despite our last minute requests for our seats to be changed from 2nd to 1st class and changing our itinerary from going to the temple to buying food, especially taking into account that we did this trip on 31st Dec (New Year's Eve), the team did a really great job at efficient communication and remaining flexible the entire time. We already recommended this company to my relatives visiting Shanghai after us. If you're planning a group trip and would like someone else to take the reins in planning for a day, this package is probably for you too.
