The entire tour exceeded my expectations. From the moment I was picked up, everything felt smooth and well-coordinated. The guide was incredibly professional and friendly, with a great command of English and a deep understanding of tea culture and local history. She shared so many fascinating details about Dragon Well tea and the traditions behind it, making the experience far more meaningful than just sightseeing. The way she explained things made me appreciate not only the tea itself but the people and stories behind it.

The flow of the day was very comfortable. We began with a boat ride on West Lake, which was serene and picturesque even in winter. Then we visited Fish Viewing at the Flower Pond and Guo Garden, both charming and peaceful. The afternoon was the highlight, wandering through the tea fields at Meijiawu and Longjing Imperial Tea Garden. I loved walking among the rows of tea bushes and watching the locals prepare the leaves by hand. The tasting session was quiet and relaxing, surrounded by mountain views and crisp air.

The car was spotless and modern, and the driver was polite and very steady. I never once felt rushed or stressed. The tour company also did a great job communicating before the trip. They replied quickly to my questions, adjusted the pickup time to match my train schedule, and made everything feel easy. This wasn’t just a day of sightseeing—it was a thoughtful, immersive look into a place and culture that felt both welcoming and genuine.
