View on Google MapsI had a wonderful experience on this Tongli Water Town tour. Everything was very smooth and well organized from start to finish. My guide explained the history, architecture and daily life of the water town in great detail and in a very clear and engaging way. What I especially appreciated was the cultural insight – many small details and stories that I would never have discovered on my own. The pace was relaxed, never rushed, and it felt more like a personal cultural walk than a standard tour. As an extra bonus, I was even dropped off directly at my hotel afterwards, which made the whole experience even more comfortable and stress-free. Overall, a very informative, relaxed and enjoyable tour. Highly recommended if you want to truly understand Tongli beyond just walking through it yourself. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
We enjoyed our tour with Lulu and exploring the Tongli Watertown. In addition we especially appreciated meeting the calligraphy poet and getting scrolls of our poems. It was also wonderful that Lulu arranged our boat ride on the canal late in the day so that it was peaceful and with no other tours in sight. Lulu was knowledgeable and helpful in every way. Thank you! 🙏

My family and I had a great time at Tongli today with our knowledgeable and helpful guide Michelle, who did a good introduction to Tongli town and also the Tuisi Gardens. Her knowledge of the details regarding the garden and Tongli town was enlightening. Michelle was also helpful in suggesting other places to visit in Suzhou when I hold her our plans to tour the city on our own over the next 2 days. Overall, it was a memorable tour!. 😀
An Amazing Week Exploring Suzhou and Surrounding Cities I recently spent a week in Suzhou, China, and the experience was nothing short of incredible. As a tourist, I had the chance to explore not only Suzhou but also nearby cities like Wuxi and Changshu—and every destination left a lasting impression. In Wuxi, I visited Huishan Old Town, a beautifully preserved area rich in traditional architecture and local culture. Three Kingdoms City was another standout, offering an immersive glimpse into ancient Chinese history. The modern Gate to the Orient added a dramatic contrast with its impressive skyline presence. Changshu surprised me with its serene charm. The Park of Roses was in full bloom and absolutely stunning—perfect for a peaceful walk and some memorable photos. Of course, the heart of the trip was Suzhou itself. Shantang Street was lively and full of character, with canals, bridges, shops, and street food that made it a joy to explore. The Humble Administrator’s Garden lived up to its reputation as one of China’s most famous classical gardens—peaceful, picturesque, and immaculately designed. Every location was well-maintained, and the locals were friendly and welcoming. From history and culture to natural beauty and modern sights, this trip offered the perfect balance. Highly recommend Suzhou and its surrounding cities for anyone looking for an enriching and visually stunning travel experience in China!
Did the 4 hour tour to Tongli with guide Peter! My husband, father and myself thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. He brought the place alive with his passionate and enthusiastic sharing of the culture and history. The pace was just right with some time to take photos and exploring the area. We went on a weekday. Tongli is a good choice as it’s less crowded but also as beautiful. If you are thinking of a day trip from Su Zhou to Tong li, will strongly recommend signing up for this tour!
I enjoyed the tour with Lulu. She was very knowledgeable and conducted the tour so that it was very relaxing. She also provided options to do what I was most interested in. The transfer to and from the hotel was on time and very comfortable. Tongli was beautiful and there is so much history there to see. I loved the boat ride!
Tongli is a beautiful old town. It was well explained on all the attractions. Lulu has good knowledge on Suzhou and recommended many Suzhou local produce. We visited hangshang temple as we have some time left. Overall good experience and would recommend friends to book with Sunny Tours.
