Private Transfer Xiamen to Anxi: Customize Your Tea Country Route

Choose your stops in Anxi's tea country, then ride in a private car built for your group

A private transfer service from Xiamen to Anxi County with hotel pickup and drop-off, where you customize which attractions to visit (tea gardens, rock temples, or scenic mountain paths), and select a vehicle sized for your party. The driver offers local tips and waits while you explore. The itinerary is yours to shape, up to nine hours of service.

The experience

You meet your driver at your Xiamen hotel at a time you choose, then decide which 2 to 3 attractions matter most to you. Anxi sits in the Fujian mountains about an hour away, and the county has built its entire economy around tea: specifically Tieguanyin, the Iron Goddess oolong that originated here over a thousand years ago. The driver knows the region and can point you toward the gardens, temples and viewpoints that fit what you want to see.

The popular stops are the tea gardens themselves: Bama Tea Garden and Factory lets you walk the rows and taste different oolongs while watching the full tea-making process, or the Anxi Tea Grand View Garden where you can brew your own cup of Tieguanyin after seeing how it's made. If scenery is the draw, Hong'en Rock offers mountain paths through lush forest, and Qingshui Rock (built in the Song Dynasty and rebuilt in the Ming), sits surrounded by cliff carvings and a temple. Your driver takes you between whichever ones you pick and brings you back to your hotel when the day ends.

The vehicle comes sized to your group: 5 seats for a couple or small family, larger vans for bigger parties, up to 55 seats if you're traveling with a full group. The service runs up to nine hours. Anything beyond that adds extra charges. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included, so you don't arrange separate transport to or from the car.

What is Tieguanyin tea and why is Anxi famous for it?

Tieguanyin, or Iron Goddess tea, is a premium oolong variety that originated in Anxi County over a thousand years ago. The county produces 15,000 tons of oolong tea annually across 16,700 acres of tea gardens, and most of the local population works in tea cultivation in some form. It's considered one of China's finest teas.

Can I choose which attractions to visit, or is the itinerary fixed?

You choose. When you meet your driver at your hotel, you pick 2 to 3 attractions you want to visit most, or discuss your preferences with the driver at that time. The itinerary is customized to what interests you.

What's included in the transfer service?

The private car, driver, hotel pickup and drop-off, and the driver's local knowledge are all included. Admission tickets to attractions and meals are not included in the service.

How long does a typical day last, and what happens if I want to stay longer?

The service covers up to nine hours of driving and waiting time. If you want to explore beyond that, extra time is charged at an additional rate.

What vehicle sizes are available?

Vehicles range from 5 seats for small groups up to 55 seats for large parties, so you can book one car that fits everyone instead of splitting across multiple vehicles.
