If your doing a 1 day tour to Hangzhou, what would be the best and fastest form of transport from Shanghai?

Go to Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station to take a high-speed train to HZ city within around an hour.

Thank you for your reply.

Hi Roger,

Thank you for your reply, we have decided to go to Suzhou instead for our day tour but do you
know if it is best to go by fast train ( or if it is possible!!) or would you suggest to drive?

The tour company suggest we drive!!

Thank you for your help.

To Suzhou, I still recommend you to take high-speed train to travel, which can be taken at Shangahi Railway Station or Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station. You can get to Suzhou within half an hour. By bus or driving, it is not so covenient and the duration is 1h or a little longer.
