Practical questions
Shanghai–Hangzhou
route FAQ.
Anything else — ask directly on WhatsApp or through the form below.
How far is Hangzhou from Shanghai, and how long is the drive?＋
About 180 km. A private car takes roughly 2.5–3 hours door to door depending on start point and traffic — comparable to the train once you count station transfers, and far easier with luggage or a group.
How much does a Shanghai–Hangzhou private car cost?＋
Quoted per car for the whole vehicle and driver — never per person. One-way transfers and full-day trips are quoted individually around dates, vehicle and itinerary, with one clear all-in price before you confirm.
What can we see in a Hangzhou day trip?＋
West Lake walks or a boat loop, Longjing tea villages, the Bamboo-forested paths, and Hefang Street for snacks — a full but unhurried day with an early-evening return to Shanghai. Business travellers usually head to the Future Sci-Tech City or partner offices; the day is planned around the appointment.
Can we start from PVG airport instead of a city hotel?＋
Yes — airport-origin transfers to Hangzhou avoid a city stop entirely. Share your flight number and the plan works backwards from your landing time.
What payment methods do you accept?＋
PayPal, Alipay, WeChat Pay and cash (CNY). Payment details are confirmed together with your quotation.
