Amazing tour of Zhouzhuang and Tongli Water Towns! - We were picked up in the most comfortable mini van I've ever been in, with reclining seats and massaging/heating functionality. Our driver did not speak English but we were told this in advance and communicated with her through WeChat which was easy. We were dropped off at the entry to Zhouzhuang first and made our way to the ticket office where we bought an entry ticket and short boat ride, the staff were super helpful and drew us a route to follow on the map. The town was our favourite out of the two, much smaller than Tongli and felt more authentic to us as there was not a lot of stuff to do other than walk around and get a feel for how the town operates with the locals. Definitely do the boat ride at Zhouzhuang, when we got to Tongli there wasn't an option to do it there, but the Tongli entrance ticket did include entry to gardens, several halls, and other temples. This town was massive and took us hours to explore, my advice would be to just walk straight over the bridge when you are dropped off as we went left and even though it was still pretty, the main attractions were in the centre of town. We also were able to a mini opera on the stage and had an amazing homemade lunch at one of the restaurants. We messaged our driver when we were ready to be picked up and she came straight away and then dropped us back at the hotel. A great option if you just want to explore in your own time without a guide. Definitely recommend these two towns, they were both different and we loved them both!

Great service. Above all praise. Thnks, Charles! - Everything was great. Driver come 15 min before the time and was waiting. The car was great. Charles helped us everywhere we need, despite of the fact that this is transfer only.

Best way to visit these traditional water towns! - We had a great time in Zhouzhuang & Tongli, our driver Mr Zhu was very nice and caring, car was super new and comfortable with a/c and even massaging seats which was a plus! Both towns well deserve a visit if you have a free day in Shanghai and want to escape the busy city, with lots of things to do and see in these traditional Chinese towns, scenic views and plenty of cafes & restaurants. 5 stars and a huge thanks to Sunny for arranging everything for us!

Beautiful water town. - Mr Kenny picked me up at Crowne Plaza Hotel at Nanjing Road on 27/7/2023 for the trip. He is very punctual and helpful. He even took the trouble to help me book my train ticket in the night after his working hours. Thank you very much Kenny.
