My brother took a boat trip from Suzhou to Wuxi along the canals many years ago. He was with an oversea organised tour group.He said that it lasted about 2 hours. Could anyone tell me whether there is such a boat trip available as part of public transportation or part of local tour in Suzhou in late October?
Thank you. M.Lau from Canada (hotmail.com|mlau79)

No boat between the two cities any more. If you want to go to Wuxi, you can try to go to Hangzhou and then to Wuxi.

Hi, we are planning to visit Suzhou, Hangzhou, Huangshan and Yixian (Xidi and Hongcun villages) at the end of Nov. Our flight arrive & depart via Hangzhou. Is it better to visit Huangshan and Yixian first before visiting Suzhou? What would be the best way to get to Suzhou from Hangzhou? Or by train/bus from Tunxi/Tangkou to Suzhou? What is the best way in transportation mode to do the route? Thanks for your suggestions.

Both are okay that you could go to Suzhou once arriving in Hangzhou or after you visit Huangshan. Not suggest that you take bus from Suzhou to Huangshan, since there is only two buses everyday. One situation for example, your route should be Hangzhou->Suzhou->Hangzhou->Huangshan->yixian->Hangzhou

Buses between Hangzhou and Suzhou are very conveniently. You could take a bus from Hangzhou East Bus Station, which will cost you about 2 hours.

Thank you, Mr. Hang. Yes, I think the route you suggested is best. What is the best way to go from Huangshan to Yixian and back to Hangzhou? By bus? How frequent? Convenient? Thank you very much.

Huangshan Bus station in the scenic are has direct buses to Xidi and Hongcun, departing time is at 8:00, 10:00, 13:40, 16:00. Suggest you confirm the infor to the bus station. It may changeable sometimes. There is one bus from Yixian to Hangzhou directly, leaving from Yixian at 8:30am.
