Nice Guide and Memorable Trip at Chengdu - Got to know Lala when we went in a group of 12 back in September. Language barrier was non existence as Lala speaks fluent English. Hence that eliminates your worries being at a foreign country. Lala is a friendly local who knows the ins and outs of the city and made on point recommendations. Being a foodie, we especially love her recommendations on food and she had been extremely helpful throughout our trip. She's also always going the extra mile. For example, she bought us tea leaves from Mount Er Mei the next day after we casually mentioned about tea leaves. Didn't expect this to happen and it instantly warmed our hearts. In essence, service was tip top and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lala to anyone who wants to visit Chengdu!

Taste of Chengdu, - This is a great pick for foodies and history buffs alike. Thanks for our beautiful local guide-Lala, who share her secrets on the best places to eat and shop for authentic dishes and ingredients. Lala is also a humorous tour guide, sharing us a lot about the local customs and folklore in Chengdu and the history. I only had one day in Chengdu this time, I hope will visit Chengdu again this year, see you soon Lala
