Our local English-speaking guide and skilled driver will pick you up at your Shanghai hotel at around 8:30am (or your convenient time) to cover the essential city spots.

First stop is one of Shanghai top-notch spots--Yuyuan Garden in the old town district. Shaded alcoves, carp pools, pavilions, whispering bamboo, stony recesses dotted the garden could shelter you from the outside bazaar bustle.

Transfer to Shanghai Museum of People's Square for the precious art collections like different dynasties' bronze wares, potteries and paintings

Then stroll along elevated riverside promenade of the Bund to soak in the bustle like the vocal hawkers, the toy vendors, the posing tourists. Don't miss the chance to see how the foreign architects' talent is displayed via the architecture cluster.

Continue the tour in the worshipper-frequent Jade Buddha Temple to view its centerpiece---a 1.9m-high pale-green jade Buddha statue.

Then take in a full picture of Shanghai metropolis on the 100th observant deck of Shanghai World Financial Center which has become a new Shanghai landmark for its unprecedented height.

Conclude the city tour by transferring back to your Shanghai hotel or getting off at your desired spot in city center.

Our driver and guide will pick you up from your Shanghai hotel and drive to Hangzhou via the air-conditioned van.

Tour the Hangzhou icon spot--West Lake sights by boat. Surrounding green mountains, pavilions and towers in touches of gold and azure contribute to a boat ride in a painting. Disembarking the boat, you can visit lakeshore spots like the Leifeng Pagoda, Yuefei Temple, etc.

Following Feilai Peak, we will tour the incense-permeated Lingyin Temple which has assembled devoted worshippers round the year to pray for changing-luck-for-the-better wishes.

Take a deep breath among the rows of green tea bush in the vast tea plantation of Dragon Well Tea Village. If you are a tea fancier, you can also choose to spend more time here to savor the authentic Longjing green tea.

Conclude your Hangzhou city tour by a private transfer back to your Shanghai hotel.
