This was our second booking with China Private Tour and it retained the high standards of quality & fun that we have come to expect. Everything about this tour was excellent. The train ride there from Shanghai was fast & comfortable with the first class seating, Hangzhou itself was beautiful & culturally rich, and Bonnie was a fabulous guide.She is so knowledgeable, so funny (I will miss her sense of humour), her story telling skills were amazing. The boat trip on Westlake was enjoyable, gave a lay of the land, and the temple tour was a very interesting site. the lunch at the farmer restaurant was really tasty, and I thought the tea plantation information informative and interesting as well (we are tea fanatics). And definitely worth the skip the line since it's a weekend trip. If you're visiting the Shanghai area and want a day you'll remember, I highly recommend this tour.
