Great value, fun experience - My guide was great! I definitely got to see stuff both on and off the beaten tourist path. It was also great to get to talk to a local about life in China.

OMG! Had an awesome and fun time! - Our tour guide Joy gave us an unexpectedly super fun and entertaining day out! In fact it was more fun than the Panda base!! The driver showed up early and helpfully dropped off our shopping at our hotel. Joy herself has studied and worked abroad so has good English. At each stop she showed us fun things and had very interesting things to say about each stop and growing up in china. Each location was very enjoyable and the itinerary was flexibly adjusted to better suit our interests. The teahouse show was outstandingly charming and memorable! The tour was worth the price as it was such an efficient way to pack so much fun into a short time without too much walking for my elderly uncle. Planning to do the tour again with friends next year and got Joy's WeChat. Super recommended!

Great tour - We had a great tour with Min Min and the driver!
We visited most of Chengdu's important places, both historically and for locals. Both are very open and talkative so we could ask as many questions as we wanted. Tour was chill and had a nice pace. Min Min was also really helpful with additional information she could provide on anything (souvenirs, shopping places and such).
Overall we had a really nice time, greetings from Croatia! :)

Excellent Experience with Emily! - We had a fantastic day out with Emily Jade! She was super flexible on the itinerary and customized to meet our interests. The tour was a great mix of history and anecdotes shared by Emily about her life and views. After the tour, Emily went above and beyond to help us with transportation we needed a few days later outside the city. She communicated directly with another driver (who only spoke Mandarin) to coordinate our transport to and from a panda reserve. Also, her colleague who drove us on both occasions was very helpful and had a comfortable clean car. 10 out of 10.

Perfect way to get to know the city - The guided tour was a very good choice, it allowed me to get a good idea about the city. Wu, the guide, was excellent. He shared a great deal of stories about the city and its history, he was knowledgeable, friendly and patient to allow me enough time to see the old streets, the buildings, shops, temples and parks. I have already told my friends all about it. If you want a nice way to see the most interesting parts of Chengdu, this tour would save you time and the hassle to choose where to go, in what order and how to get there.

Wonderful Tour with Bella - This was an absolutely amazing tour of Chengdu. We went to each site at the perfect time so nothing was too crowded. All of the sites we went to were beautiful and there’s was an opportunity to get souvenirs here and there, but they were never required. For lunch we got to try local Sichuan food and we could decide the level of spiciness. Our tour guide, Bella, was extremely knowledgeable, and she told us all about the different sites in Chengdu and answered our questions about the city and Chinese history. She was extremely helpful and personable, and she took many pictures for us. We would recommend this tour to anyone who is interested!!
