Excellent tour of Hangzhou - excellent tour by Cindy : )

Published on Jan, 2024

It was a wonderful day, a lot of laughter, good food, and great sight seeing. My tour guide Cindy was a great person to travel with. Communication was easy. She picked me up at my hotel. Everything was done just right - with no time wasted. We went to the West Lake, The West Lake Hotel, Mao Ze Dong's garden where he studied English, then to a temple, a short hike, then to a really delicious country restaurant for lunch. Afterwards we tasted tea at a tea farm. Along the way, I got to see the Bullet Train. Cindy was really open to any sort of questions, and she was just a great companion to travel with. She didn't even lose her cool when my payment system failed initially (when I tried to pay her for the train tickets and a gratuity). She just left. But we got the payment worked out ok at the end. Cindy also did not push for me to give a positive review. But I would 100% recommend this tour with Cindy, and in fact if I'm ever back in China, I would go with Cindy again to see other sites / organized trips - I have the confidence that she could arrange a fabulous trip to your specifications.

Great tour

I liked the visit, the guide was so helpful, punctual and knowledgeable. The tour was so good especially with the explanation of the guide.

Best experience ever

Published on Apr, 2019

Lynn is a great and very personable tour guide. It feels more visiting some sights with someone you know than with a guide. I really recommend her and the tour. It is great to see west lake and the faxi temple, truly beautiful.
