A day's trip in Suzhou with Sunflower Tours

Published on Sep, 2023

My friends and myself had a very short stay in Shanghai and we wanted to experience the bullet train trip. We decided to visit Suzhou as it is only 30-minute trip from Shanghai by the bullet train. The city was so beautiful, so many trees, beautiful gardens, wonderful people and amazing food. Our guide Ms. Apple met us at the hotel lobby in Shanghai. As usual all the tour guides from Sunflower tours are very punctual and very organized. She explained our day's itinerary and we proceeded to the bullet train station. Our driver Mr. Yang was waiting for us at the Suzhou railway station. He was a very friendly person. The car in which he took us around Suzhou was very clean like brand new and it was very comfortable drive through Suzhou. Suzhou is a beautiful city with gardens, canals like Venice, narrow shopping alleys, bars, cafe and restaurants. Our guide took us to a restaurant for traditional Chinese lunch. It was one of the most amazing traditional restaurants we visited in the entire trip. It was a great choice by Ms. Apple. Ms. Apple is a full-time professional tour guide, and she speaks very good English. She has a very good knowledge of the history of Suzhou and explained the places we visited with great detail. I'll definitely recommend Sunflower Tours and Ms. Apple; we had a wonderful experience of visiting Suzhou and the bullet train trip.

Short and sweet

This was one of its kind trip. We wanted to experience bullet train, and have good time, Suzhou had it all. From lovely parks full of beautiful people, to boating feeling like Venice, to see the leaning trover in tiger hill. Our guide Ms. Apple was very helpful, and gave us an excellent background to the history. Do enjoy shopping in Suzhou.

Shanghai to Suzhou in First Class for RMB 60

Published on Dec, 2019

Very comfortable journey. Maximum speed was 294 km per hour. Seats very clean and spacious. The fabric was slightly older and there was a long queue for entering the platform. The shanghai station was also very clean. The suzhou railway station was simply stunning.
