The best tour guide you can get! - This tour went incredibly smooth, i hope everyone that book this tour will get Wen Wen as a tour guide, because she is someone really out of this world, nice person i ever met really! She really helped us like a mom, make sure everything was clear and also she brought us to have one of the best dinner we had in China so far. She really passionate about her work and i really hope to meet her again in our lives. I want to thanks also Alana, that wrote us before and make sure after the tour that everything went good. The service is really a top level one. About the tour we visited the temple, the west lake and tea plantation, unfortunately this period is already gone for tea picking, so my suggestions is to do that maximum in early April. If i have to say something, it would have been great to know that before, as we expected a more engaging experience. We also choose to go at Pavillon in west Lake during sunset and both driver and Wen Wen, make sure to accommodate our request. Book this tour and experience and you will never regret! Best from Italy!

Explore Hangzhou and taste its famous Longjing tea - I was visiting Hangzhou for the first time and wanted to learn more about its history and visit famous places. My tour guide, Doris, was kind and experienced. We walked along the lake while she shared the history of the place and the habits of its citizens. Later, we moved to the temple. I recommend avoiding it on weekends, as it can get extremely crowded. The nicest part was visiting the tea plantations, which are actually within the city itself. If you have enough time and energy, you can go hiking there and enjoy beautiful views. Afterwards, you can try the tea and local farmer's food.

Hangzhou is definitely worth visiting! - I was in Hangzhou for business but decided to take a half day tour around this place as well. Hangzhou is indeed amazing, and it is definitely worth visiting it! We have taken a boat tour on West Lake, visited a Temple with unique statues carved in the rock, seen a tea plantation, had lunch at a tea house. The views were fantastic! Many thanks to our guide Wen Wen. She was great, really knowledgeable and attentive.

Fun day exploring - Had a great guide Cindy, she was super knowledgeable and a lot of fun. We visited the temple, tea plantation and the beautiful west lakes. I was on a business trip so traveling solo - Cindy was super friendly made the day really enjoyable. Highly recommend.

Great and flexible tour - I booked quite last minute 1 day before and they perfectly organised everything. Contacted me via WeChat to ask for preferences of things to see and once we arrived at the station Cindy was waiting to pick us up. Very nice tour and super flexible to change and adapt to the things you really want to see. Definitely recommend
