My signature whole-day program involves Panmen ancient gate (origin of official city emblem of Suzhou), Tiger Hill ("oldest tourist attraction of Suzhou" dating to 496BC) and one of the gardens (ex. Master of Nets, etc.). The day starts w/ arrival at Panmen around 10am, then Suzhou noodles lunch nearby, in the afternoon we go to the two other destinations, and wrap up by dinner time. Each site would take about 2 hours, and clients can choose two of these (or other destinations) for a 4-hour half-day tour either in the morning or afternoon.
