杭州：大叶谷瀑布私人一日游

Trade the city bustle for a refreshing private day trip into one of East China's prettiest forest gorges. After a comfortable pickup from your Hangzhou hotel, your private car and English-speaking guide whisk you across the provincial border into the foothills of Mount Longwang in Ningguo, Anhui, where Daye Valley (also called Tianlong Gorge) hides among original forest.

This is an unhurried, scenic outing rather than a workout. You will wander a gentle bamboo-lined path into the cool heart of the gorge, where the air stays naturally fresh even in summer. Along the way, a string of clear emerald pools and gentle waterfalls appear one after another, the water so transparent that the smooth round stones on the streambed look like a clutch of dinosaur eggs. There is plenty of time to pause for photos, dip your hands in the cool water, and simply breathe.

Your guide shares the stories of the valley, the source of the Maotan River, and the local She ethnic culture of Yunti township nearby. A relaxed lunch is included, and the pace is set entirely around your comfort, with easy paths and frequent rest stops. By late afternoon you return to your private vehicle and ride back to Hangzhou, refreshed by a day in authentic rural China far from the tourist crowds.

Ideal for travellers, couples and families who want genuine natural scenery, clean mountain water and a calm, private experience without any strenuous activity.
