Your day begins in Shanghai. We will arrange hotel pickup or meet you at the agreed location and help you reach the train station smoothly. After taking the high-speed train to Hangzhou, your private driver will be waiting at Hangzhou East Railway Station and transfer you directly to Hengdian.

The ride from Hangzhou to Hengdian takes around 2–2.5 hours. Sit back and relax as you travel comfortably to China's famous film and television town, while our team takes care of the transportation connections and timing throughout the day.

Discover the Film World of Hengdian
After arriving in Hengdian, you'll begin your movie-themed experience at Qin Palace, one of the most impressive filming locations in Hengdian World Studios. Built to recreate the grandeur of the Qin Dynasty, Qin Palace features magnificent palace gates, towering halls, and wide courtyards that bring ancient China to life. As you walk through this spectacular complex, you'll feel like you have stepped into the scene of a historical drama, surrounded by the same scenery that has appeared in many Chinese films and TV series. Take your time exploring the royal architecture, capturing photos, and learning about how Hengdian has become one of the world's largest film and television production bases.

If you are more interested in nostalgic streets and Hong Kong-style movie scenes, we can also arrange a visit to Guangzhou Street & Hong Kong Street instead. This themed area recreates the atmosphere of old Guangzhou and Hong Kong with vintage buildings, traditional shops, and classic street scenes, offering a completely different film experience. With our flexible itinerary planning, we'll help you choose the Hengdian attraction that best matches your interests while keeping the overall schedule comfortable and enjoyable.

Enjoy a Relaxing Return Journey from Hengdian to Shanghai
After exploring Hengdian World Studios, your private driver will take you back to Hangzhou East Railway Station. You can relax in the comfortable vehicle after a full day of sightseeing while our team helps ensure your return train connection goes smoothly.

Upon arrival at Hangzhou East Railway Station, you'll take the high-speed train back to Shanghai. After arriving in Shanghai, your private transfer service will be arranged to take you back to your hotel or preferred location, completing a hassle-free day trip from Shanghai.

Much more fun than I expected

I booked this mostly because my husband is obsessed with anything involving AI, but I ended up enjoying it just as much. The driverless taxi was the biggest surprise — sitting inside and watching the car make its own decisions felt a little strange at first! The robot dog was also hilarious. Our guide explained things without making it feel like a technology lecture, which I really appreciated.

Thanks, Eamon! We love hearing that the tour surprised you in the best way. The driverless taxi can feel a little odd at first, but once you settle in, it's a pretty memorable experience. Glad you both had fun exploring Shenzhen's tech side!

The trains made the route surprisingly easy

I had never traveled around China by high-speed train before, so I wasn't sure what to expect. Once we got the hang of it, it was actually one of the easiest parts of the trip. Having someone meet us at the stations was especially helpful because some of the stations are enormous. We could just get off the train, find our driver and move on.

Thanks, Marlowe! Glad to hear our train journeys turned out to be easier than expected. Those big stations can definitely feel a bit overwhelming at first, so it's great to hear that having our driver there made things smoother. Hope you enjoyed the rest of the trip!

A Photographer's Kind of Day

If you like old architecture, bring a camera. Badaguan was probably my favorite part because every street seemed to have a slightly different look. The church and railway station were also great photo stops. I liked that the tour wasn't only about famous sights — there was plenty of time to notice small details along the way.

Thanks, Soren! We're delighted that the architectural side of Qingdao caught your eye. The city has so many small details that are easy to miss when you're in a hurry.

Definitely earned its reputation

I knew Mount Tai would be the big highlight for me, but it was still better than expected. The views kept changing as we went higher, and there was something really special about seeing the old temples and inscriptions along the mountain. The whole trip was also very well organized. We had enough time at each place without feeling like we were constantly watching the clock.
