Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for the Indian Temple and Chinese Garden Tour? Would it be suitable for kids?

A: Kids are definitely welcome on the tour! The Indian Temple has a lot of interesting architecture and colorful decorations that kids usually find fascinating. Plus, the Chinese Garden is a beautiful place to explore and learn about nature and culture. Just keep an eye on them in the busier areas like Flushing, where things can get a little hectic.

Q: What should I wear for the tour, especially since it's a mix of indoor and outdoor sites?

A: Comfort is key! I’d recommend wearing layers since you’ll be outside at the Chinese Garden, but the temple is indoors, so it can be cooler. Closed-toe shoes are a must for walking around Flushing's markets. And don’t forget to check the weather—if it rains, an umbrella is a good idea!

Q: What if the weather is bad on the day of the tour? Are there any reschedule options?

A: Totally understand your concern! Sunshine Travel is pretty flexible with rescheduling. If it’s seriously bad weather, you can usually move your booking to a later date without a penalty. Just make sure you call ahead to let them know—better to be safe than sorry!

Just got back from the Indian Temple and Chinese Garden Tour—what an experience!

I took this tour last weekend, and it was amazing! The BAPS Swaminarayan Temple in NJ is absolutely stunning; I've never seen anything like it before! The details are just mind-blowing, and our tour guide was super knowledgeable. Then we went to the Chinese Garden, which was so peaceful. Flushing is a whole vibe! We tried dumplings at this little place called Nan Xiang, and it’s a foodie paradise! Definitely recommend as a gift for anyone who loves culture and food!

Considering the Indian Temple and Chinese Garden Tour as a gift—thoughts?

Hey everyone! I’m looking for a unique gift for my friend’s birthday and came across this tour. It sounds really cool with all the cultural elements and food. Has anyone done it? What did you think? Is it good for someone who’s not super into long tours? Just trying to gauge if it’s worth it!
