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!
Reviews: Half-Day Hangzhou West Lake Tour [Cruise to Three Pools Mirroring the Moon Island + Enjoy Ten Scenes of West Lake + Live Guide]
Guest User2026-03-14
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: [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.
Reviews: Tickets for the must-see ERA Time Travel Acrobatic Show in Shanghai

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: Shanghai Bund + Lichafandian Site (Zhongguozhengquan Museum) 2-hour guide with earphone included
Guest User2025-04-30
Wu Hao, our tour guide, is incredibly knowledgeable. He explained the Bund from multiple perspectives, including architectural features, historical figures, and the background of the war, in a clear, engaging, and vivid way. The tour was also highly interactive; I wouldn't have known the stories behind many things if I had walked around and observed them on my own. A fantastic trip!!!
