Reviews: Hangzhou + Xixi National Wetland Park + Longjing Village One-day Tour [5A Wetland Park + Battery Boat Tour Original Ecological Landscape + Pure Fun Travel + Small Group of 10 People]
Guest User2026-03-30
It was a very happy and fulfilling day! Every place we visited was beautiful and photogenic! The rowing boats at Xixi Wetland were tranquil and serene, offering a different experience from those on West Lake. Gaozhuang resembled a Suzhou garden, but with far fewer people, making for stunning photos. The lunch spot I recommended was delicious, beautifully situated, and reasonably priced. Our guide, Liu, led the way, took photos for us, and even drove us around in his luxury car – it was all very peaceful. The afternoon's tea-picking activity was my favorite part; the tea costumes were unique, and the photographer was incredibly skilled – the soothing greenery and the fragrant Longjing tea... I highly recommend it!

I have positive feedback to give... Since it was around Chinese New Year, I was a little worried it would be super crowded, but it wasn’t! A lot of the places we visited were surprisingly quiet, and not touristy. The tour started at a garden by West Lake - think it was called Guo Garden. Never really heard of it before but it was such a nice way to see the lake from this angle. The tea fields in the afternoon were also very beautiful. My guide Jason was very passionate and happy to share stories. If you’re looking for a relaxing day in nature, I recommend this tour.

The service was excellent! Although it was a bit chilly, the guides were very welcoming and explained the scenery from different angles along the hiking route. The route was very well-planned and unforgettable.

This was my first short vacation in Hangzhou, and I casually booked a half-day tour package on Meituan. Guide Zhang was my host, and before we even met, he thoughtfully reminded me about public transportation. Once we met, he didn't waste any time on small talk; he went straight to the point and showed me the package. Guide Zhang was incredibly professional and knowledgeable about the various attractions, patiently explaining everything while also allowing me time to take photos. Even though it was only half a day, Guide Zhang's dedication and professionalism in providing a thorough explanation were truly commendable. As a tourist from Shenzhen, this experience deepened my impression of Hangzhou. Thank you, Guide Zhang! I look forward to seeing you again. I will definitely share this experience with my friends; Hangzhou is a must-visit! 😀😀
Reviews: Half-Day Hangzhou West Lake Tour [Cruise to Three Pools Mirroring the Moon Island + Enjoy Ten Scenes of West Lake + Live Guide]

For first-time visitors to West Lake, I highly recommend joining a small group tour of 10! Luckily, everyone else in our group cancelled, so the two of us could go! The entire West Lake is 21 kilometers long, and it's difficult to appreciate every view on foot. Then we took a boat to Three Pools Mirroring the Moon Island via a fast route, avoiding the queues! Our guide, Xiao Xu, was very talkative and gentle, providing detailed explanations, and the itinerary wasn't too rushed. A fantastic experience!
Reviews: Half-day tour of Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou (guided tour, small group of 2-10 people), optional tea room for copying scriptures and tea tasting.
Guest User2026-03-17
This option is suitable for those with limited time. The tour guide service was excellent. Due to traffic restrictions on the way to Lingyin Temple, we were delayed, but the guide waited for us. The overall explanation was quite detailed, and the guide also explained how to worship. This itinerary didn't have much planning; it basically just took us into the largest hall, and then we worshipped and descended the mountain on our own.
