This essence day tour hit Lingyin Temple, West Lake and Hefang street in one sweep, which was a lot and mostly well organized. Our guide did a good job on the temple history and gave us free time by the lake instead of herding us. Why 4 stars not 5: Leifeng Pagoda was packed that Sunday and there was no avoiding the queue, though our guide apologized and gave us extra time at a quieter garden after. Food stop on Hefang street was fun, osmanthus cake and a proper Dongpo pork. Driver was safe and the car cool. Still recommend, just avoid a weekend if you can.

Thanks for the balanced review, Fiona. We will take the Leifeng Pagoda note on board - it is one of those stops that can feel like a quick add on and we are looking at how to give it more context. Glad the temple history and the free time by the lake landed well.
