Reviews: Half-Day Tour to Zhujiajiao Ancient Town [Explore the Millennial Water Town with Timeless Charm and Lively Atmosphere]
Guest User2026-04-07
It was a pretty fun to visit and half day trip although you get quite bored at the end. We thought the boat ride was included but it turned out that it was additional fee. I would say the boat ride was unique but not worth the price.

Excellent tour, excellent guide, and excellent timing. It was a very informative and interactive tour. I learned a lot thanks to the knowledgeable guide that pointed at significant objects that I would not have noticed myself. I highly recommend this tour and its guide.

The driver and guide Joe is a really wonderful person. We were a group of 5 people and he helped us a lot. One of us is a person in a wheelchair, so he helped even with it coz he had to move in such a wheelchair for half a year.

This trip was made possible by our tour guide, who provided clear and concise explanations, highlighting the historical significance of each attraction and sharing local anecdotes, making the trip more than just a sightseeing experience. The guide was attentive to the needs of the tourists, offering thoughtful reminders and meticulous care for the elderly and children, demonstrating exceptional responsibility. It was a truly enjoyable travel experience.

I took my mother there for her birthday, and it was an incredible gift! The shows are beautiful, traditional, and innovative all at once. The techniques are impressive.
Reviews: [Departing from Shanghai] One-Day Tour to West Lake and Lingyin Temple (Exploring the Ink-Wash Jiangnan)
Guest User2026-03-26
We managed to see West Lake, take a boat ride, have lunch, drive past tea plantations, and then stop at a monastery, which was very impressive in its sheer size. The guide spoke only Chinese, despite having WeChat enabled with built-in Russian/English translation. He was poorly connected, failing to explain much about the meeting time, location, and availability. You need to book free tickets to the last temple in advance on WeChat by searching "杭州灵隐飞来峰" and completing all the booking steps. As stated, weekend tickets sell out quickly. Passports are checked at the entrance. Lunch was included (no extra charge), but the setting around the lunch spot doesn't really resemble the tea plantations: there were lots of noisy tour groups and dirty restrooms. We wouldn't have been able to see so much in one day on our own. We used this option as a transfer. Keep in mind the travel time: Shanghai-Hangzhou (3 hours), from the lunch spot to the monastery (1 hour), Hangzhou-Shanghai (5 hours). We were there on Sunday.
