Get a feel for the pace

This five-day, four-night Hangzhou round trip combines West Lake, Lingyin and Feilai Peak, Longjing tea gardens, Leifeng Pagoda, Wuzhen and Xixi. It focuses on city walks and cultural visits. Songcheng show tickets cost extra, and the final day’s wetland and museum visits must fit departure transport. This is a reference route; accommodation, tickets, transport and fee coverage are subject to the confirmed quotation and itinerary.

The arrangements below are a starting point for discussing your itinerary. Before booking, check each day's starting and ending cities, accommodation, transport, driving time and available activities. The written plan confirmed by both parties takes precedence.

Your travel party and pace

Share your party size, the needs of children or older travelers, luggage and room arrangements before confirming transport and accommodation.
Choose stops around daily driving time, walking and rest breaks, and include pickups, drop-offs and transfers between stops in the itinerary.
Travelers from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and overseas should check requirements against their actual travel documents, dates and route, rather than their place of residence or language.

Tour highlights

West Lake and Leifeng Pagoda: lakeside walks and views
Lingyin and Feilai Peak: temple architecture and carvings
Longjing tea gardens: confirm the specific experience
Wuzhen: a full day for the water town

What to confirm before booking

How are Songcheng performance charges confirmed?

If interested, confirm date, performance, seat and park access before deciding whether to include it in the written quote. Mentioning a show on a proposed route does not include a ticket or guarantee a booking.

Can we pick or buy tea at Longjing?

Picking depends on farming seasons and garden access; a garden visit does not imply tea picking is available. Specify the content and cost of any tea-making, tasting or shopping arrangement in advance. Purchases are voluntary.

Can we visit both Xixi and the Silk Museum on departure day?

It depends on the flight or train, opening times and city traffic. Reserve the airport or station transfer time first, then choose one or both visits. An early departure requires a different schedule.

Plans may change due to weather, road conditions or policy. Confirm services, payment, cancellation and rescheduling terms before booking. The written plan agreed by both parties is the final reference.
