Wonderful memories in Hangzhou with Derek!!!
During the private tour we were escorted by our guide Derek, which made our time truly memorable!! He works with true passion and dedication , and made us feel welcomed and well taken care of during our whole time together. He was very knowledgeable of all the places we visited (West lake , Lingyin temple, tea village), and kept us entertained the whole time with interesting insights, legends and stories. He gave us a lot of tips, and thanks to his great English knowledge, we were able to not only learn a lot about China , but also have a fun time together He had a very good relationship with our driver and the lady from the Tea Village experience, which at the end of the trip made us feel like in a small family. He is a truly professional, reliable, fun, friendly, knowledgeable guide, and if you have the opportunity I would 100% recommend booking a tour with him !! more

Romantic city of Hang Zhou
Situated just outside of Shanghai, Hang Zhou was an absolute delight offering mesmerising picturesque landscapes in the likes of the Xi Lake (West Lake). The city offers a calm but yet vibrant vibe. It was worth the visit. We thoroughly enjoyed the company of our tour guide, Leaf Zhang, who was very organised and went above and beyond to help us throughout the trip. Leaf showed us a glimpse of what the city has to offer sharing stories of folklores and its history. Another must place to visit on route was Wu Zhen, with its historical architecture and cultural theatrics. We happened to visit it during their annual Drama festival and it was one of the highlights of the trip! more
