Begin your journey with a convenient pick-up from your Hangzhou hotel. Accompanied by your local guide, head to the picturesque Longjing Tea Village. At a traditional tea farm, immerse yourself in the authentic world of tea-making. Join the farmers for a tea-picking experience among the lush green terraces, then step into the workshop to learn the art of pan-roasting. Savor freshly brewed cups while discovering the cultural stories. As a special highlight, you’ll take home a souvenir package of Longjing tea, crafted by your own hands during the roasting process.

For lunch, your guide will recommend a local restaurant based on your personal preferences. Alternatively, enjoy a truly authentic experience by visiting a tea farmer’s home, where you’ll be served a traditional meal featuring Hangzhou specialties and a variety of seasonal vegetables. In the afternoon, continue your journey to the serene West Lake, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the most iconic attraction in Hangzhou. Your guide will bring the landscape to life by pointing out ancient pagodas, graceful arched bridges, and lush islands, all of which have inspired poets and painters for centuries.
