Shaoxing is an ancient water town in the eastern Chinese province of Zhejiang. Here, you’ll find an abundance of rivers and more than 4,000 bridges — it’s why many refer to the city as the “Venice of China.” Attractions on land include Longhua Temple, the tomb of Yu the Great, Shen Yuan (Shen Garden) and the former residence of writer and philosopher Lu Xun (the pen name of Zhou Shuren). Be sure to try Shaoxing wine, a specialty rice wine known the world over.

Located within Hangzhou Bay, Zhoushan is a prefecture-level city comprised of a group of islands known as the Zhoushan archipelago.
Mt. Putuo Island is perhaps the most well-known of the islands, a longtime Buddhist pilgrimage site and beloved scenic area. As a port city, Zhoushan itself is one of China’s top processors and sellers of seafood.

Few places in China offer such legendary attractions as Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang province. Ancient temples, striking cityscapes and scenic mountain vistas make this region one of the most beautiful travel destinations in the country. World-famous attractions include Baochu Pagoda, Lingyin Temple, Yue Fei Temple and the bronze, octagonal Leifeng Pagoda. Hangzhou’s awe-inspiring West Lake is surrounded by temple gardens, pagodas and lush woodlands. This cherished natural landmark has been immortalized in art, literature and poetry since the 9th century.

As a Titanium Member, you’ll indulge in extra special benefits, including a per-person wupeng boat experience on Day 2 (1:30-3 p.m.). During your excursion to East Lake, board a traditional black awning boat — a vessel that’s unique to Shaoxing — for a guided glide along the water.

Plus, Titanium Members will enjoy the Platinum Inclusions on this DreamTrips experience.

Life is amazing when you’re a Titanium Member!

On this DreamTrip to Zhejiang province, Platinum Members will be treated to an exclusive, per-person afternoon tea experience at Cheery Canal Hotel Hangzhou, where you’ll sip and savor tea and treats on Day 5.

Hotel Check-in Requirements

By booking this DreamTrip I understand that the hotel may request a credit card upon check-in. The hotel may request the credit card in order to: a) place a monetary hold of US$50-200; or b) hold for incidental, security or other charges. By booking, I acknowledge having received notice of this potential charge and accept that Rovia™ recommends a credit card rather than a debit or bank card be used in the event the hotel requests the card. I understand that any such request made by the hotel is outside of the control of Rovia and is strictly a hotel policy. Should I have questions concerning the hotel’s policy, I accept responsibility for contacting the hotel independent of Rovia.

Please note: The price shown above is subject to change based on promotional pricing availability, room type(s) booked, taxes, etc.

Please be aware that children’s pricing is based on hotel rates, excursion costs and other inclusions.

Please note: At the time of booking, you will see a page with your order number and trip cost. This is your confirmation. Please retain and bring this information with you on your trip.

Please note: A host is provided only on trips with bookings of 10 or more adults.

Gratuities at the hotel are not included. We suggest providing hotel gratuities at your own discretion.

Cancellation Policy*: If you cancel 46 days or more before the start date of your trip, you will get a refund less a fee of up to US$100. If you cancel within 45 days of the start date of your trip, your trip will not be refunded. All fees are applicable on a per-person basis.

*This cancellation policy is subject to rules and regulations in applicable jurisdictions in which our travel supplier is based. In the event of conflict between the cancellation policy displayed here and cancellation terms in supplier booking terms, the more restrictive of the two terms will prevail.

Name Change Policies: Name changes are generally not allowed on trips to avoid fraud, gaming and profiteering. We want to ensure that most of our travelers are members. For this DreamTrip, we do make certain exclusions, including the policy below:

We reserve the right to refuse a name change at our sole discretion. If allowed, name changes must be done no later than January 20 and are subject to a fee up to US$100. Name changes after this date are not allowed.

Members can’t combine DreamTrips Points. Your membership level determines the maximum amount of DreamTrips Points you can use. If you have more than 50 Rovia Bucks, you can apply them in the checkout process.

Hotel/resort credits and/or discounts cannot be converted to cash, and any not used during your stay will expire immediately upon your departure. Member is responsible for paying any taxes that may be added to items purchased with hotel/resort credit.

In the unfortunate event that an activity or excursion is no longer available, we will substitute a similar activity of equal or greater value.

Make sure that your passport and visa, if applicable, are up-to-date before you leave! It’s important to double check that you have all the identification and other documentation required by the specific country you’re traveling to. In many countries, passports and visas must be valid for 6 months or longer after the trip end date. If you are unable to obtain the required identification and other documentation, the Cancellation Policy for this DreamTrip will apply.

Make sure that you request a name change or room change at least 31 or more days before the 1st day of your trip. Due to contractual supplier policies, we may not be able to confirm requested name or room changes to existing bookings for trips that are scheduled to travel within 30 days of your request.

Each individual, including each child, who is coming along with you on your DreamTrip is required to have a booking prior to the commencement of the trip. If you do not book and pay for each such person in advance of the trip, you will be charged the hotel’s then-current rate, not the trip price, for each such person at the time of your check-in.

Pricing for children is based on their age at the time of travel and may be subject to additional terms and conditions of individual hotels and all-inclusive resorts. Also, pricing for children can vary, and may be higher than pricing for adults. Therefore, before you book any travel, please check the relevant hotel or resort website for applicable terms and conditions as well as details regarding their pricing structure.

Pricing shown is for each person, and is based on 2 adults per room.

Please don’t consider your change requests official until you receive a confirmation email from us.
