Hangzhou Longjing Tea Fields Meijiawu Village Tea Culture Half Day Tour

Listed on Klook, this half-day tour explores Meijiawu Village and the neighbouring Longjing tea fields in Hangzhou's Xihu District, a hillside area roughly six kilometres from West Lake. The tour is run in a private-group format with a dedicated guide, beginning with a tea fragrance experience among the Longjing tea rows near Meijiawu. Participants then walk through the Qingshan Tea Garden, a landscaped tea plantation within the village, before the guide gives an in-depth explanation of Longjing tea's history and its classification into different picking grades. The four-hour itinerary is built around walking between tea terraces and garden paths rather than a set meal, so it functions as a tea-culture excursion rather than a full food tour; tea tastings are typically part of the included stops. Transport to and from Meijiawu Village should be confirmed at booking, as it is not explicitly listed among the inclusions. The private-group format keeps the pace flexible, with English-language guiding, and suits visitors who want a quieter alternative to Hangzhou's more crowded tea-village tours. The tour runs year-round, with spring offering the most active tea-picking activity in the surrounding fields.
