I would like to contribute something. Nancy was such a wonderful guide that I will definitely recommend her to any friends visiting Hangzhou. Great to have met you.
We rate this hangzhou day tour a 5+! Our tour guide , Lisa, was wonderful-very knowledgeable. There were 4 of us. We were picked up early in the morning at the hangzhou train station and on our way to a great tour in an air conditioned private van. We all had a great time. We would highly recommend this private Tour!!!! Thank you!
I was looking for a group tour last minute but the tickets were sold out. I was a bit nervous booking a private tour since this is my first time doing this. Two of my aunts came from Korea and they also have never been on a private tour. But they had a relaxing and enjoyable time. The driver was courteous and patient! Wendy was our tour guide and made sure we had a good time. She is friendly; she always answered any questions we had. My aunts and I were happy to visit Hangzhou.
Great service! It was a nice trip in Hangzhou & we had 2 days off. They offered a great service and managed everything nicely. Tour guide Sam was just amazing! Sam spoke EXCELLENT english, very knowledgeable about the places. The driver service was good and food at the local farmer's house was delicious! We couldn't have asked for a better tour in Hangzhou! The whole trip was SUCH a pleasure because of the caring attention of our Sam. The tasting and visit to the tea plantation was a highlight as well. All in all a great day. Thanks again.......
Very professional perfect English spoken guided tour in Hangzhou city. I recommend Nancy who has a nice way of making all Hangzhou attractions even more splendid! Thank you Nancy and China Hangzhou Tour.
Had a wonderful day in Hangzhou with our tour guide Bonnie. She was very knowledgeable and friendly, and answered all my stupid questions :) it was a pleasure to be guided by her through the amazing city of Hangzhou. I was particularly impressed by the West Lake (it gave me such a peaceful sensation) and the Lingyin temple, an absolute gem! We had a great lunch at the farmers' house (I'd recommend trying the chicken cooked in green tea and the eggplants) and went for a walk in the old street. Our hangzhou trip was very well organized and everything went smoothly. I had such a great time that I won't forget.
We wanted to hit all the highlights for Hangzhou and reached out to China Hangzhou Tour. They responded quickly with clear information. On the morning itself, we came down early but Sharon was even earlier. She gave a top notch guided tour with clear explanation of the history of Hangzhou and an insider's perspective. The tour was well-organized with the car ride and driver providing seamless service and we were beyond happy with Sharon's services. If we come back, we will definitely engage her again.
My fiancee and I are so happy that we chose to do a private day tour with David for our visit in Hangzhou. He met us at our hotel lobby on time. He was incredibly knowledgeable about history and the areas we were visiting and the tour went so smoothly. He selected our lunch menu and the food was incredibly delicious - we got to sit in a private room with the window overlooking the tea harvesting and listening to the rain. It was such a beautiful day - I would highly recommend this hangzhou tour!
