Description

Discover Hangzhou’s blend of beauty and innovation on a guided tour. Cruise across West Lake, explore Meijiawu Tea Village, and visit Alibaba’s headquarters and Xiaoshan Robot Town.
Begin with a pickup from your hotel or train station in Hangzhou. Head to Alibaba’s Hangzhou headquarters area. With your guide, walk around the impressive campus zone and hear the story of how Alibaba grew from a local startup into a global tech giant.

Next, slow the pace at West Lake, Hangzhou’s most symbolic landmark and one of the most celebrated scenic areas in China. Step aboard the included boat cruise and glide over calm waters framed by willow trees, bridges, and classical landscapes. Your guide will add context with historical stories and local legends that bring the views to life.

Then head to Meijiawu Tea Village, one of Hangzhou’s best places to experience traditional tea culture. Walk through the lush tea fields and learn how tea is cultivated and produced—from the growing conditions to the craftsmanship behind local varieties. It’s a peaceful, sensory stop: green hills, fresh air, and a deeper appreciation of a tradition that has shaped Hangzhou for centuries.

Finish the day at Xiaoshan Robot Town, a forward-looking zone dedicated to intelligent manufacturing and robotics. Stroll through the area and see highlights like the distinctive cocoon-shaped exhibition center, plus robotic displays and interactive elements that show how quickly technology is evolving.
