2-Day Summer Weekend Getaway to Anji Bamboo Forest

2nd time visit Hangzhou. From the high-speed train station, greeted by the tour guide Mr Eleven, transported to the hotel Indigo at around 10pm. Thanks for his arrangement for a fast food delivery through his mobile delivery order, managed to settle the dinner problem. Throughout the Hangzhou tour, he has shown a very care taking tour guide especially if your group has an old, aged person. Well guided and during the departure time, a very clear instructions to clear the train station customs and ticketing process. Well done

This is a wonderful, magical city for a summer holiday. Lakes, boats, bridges, lovely gardens , pagodas , temples, a musical fountain extravaganzas each night for free and the food is incredible. Our guide Susan was top of the class, beautiful use of English, practical efficient all you could wish for plus fun. We were there in the rainy season and it’s best to visit in spring, but we loved it and would have been happy to stay longer. We had one day of biblical rain, umbrellas are a must and local ones also provided protection against UV damage. Our trip to Wuzhen water village was delightful, worth a stay overnight to see the lights, next time for us. China is an incredible country with so much to offer.

Eleven was our tour guide and he was energetic. We had a memorable time at a tea plantation picking tea leaves and sampling teas. We also went to the West Lake area which was filled with tourists and had been recommended that we stay a night near West Lake, but we chose to make it a day trip. We had a great tea learning about tea and one of the ancient capitals.
