Leila was our tour guide for our group of 5, 3 day /2nights to Chengdu, Dujiangyan Irtigation system, Jinsha Site Museum, Panda Base and surrounding areas. Leila was so knowledgeable about the areas visited. She was always pleasant, full of information, and energetic. Leila can speak English perfectly. She can sing and rap too. She kept us entertained during our trip. We were very pleased with our trip and would love to travel with Leila again. We strongly recommend her and her company to anyone.

I had so much fun in my short visit to Chengdu. Emily, my guide, is a very nice and friendly guide, with a lot of experience and knowledge, goos English, providing a great personal experience. It felt like hanging out with an old friend. I didn't expect such warm companion in my solo trip. I really appreciate her First day, half day experience. Arrived at the airport, she picked me up, drove me to hotel, helped with check in. Seamless. We then had lunch at local hotpot. Accommodated my request for spicy exotic food. Ate pork brain and duck intestine. Amazing Second day, the main day, full day experience. Went to panda center, showing me good spots to get panda videos. She treated me to more authentic spicy Sichuan foods. Visited fascinating museum. Went to other local spots like wide & narrow roads and People's Park. Chilling at local tea house, checking out matchmaking corners. At night she got me ticket to Sichuan Opera

My local guide Rebecca has guided me professionally through the panda breeding research base as well as through the Wide and Narrow Alley as also the museum. as she is originate from Chengdu, she had a huge knowledge and happy to share tips and tricks. As we had some spare time, she willingly added some extra spots to the journey. Thanks a lot Rebecca! See you next time!

Living in Shanghai, I spent a 6-day break in Sichuan which ended up to be a fantastic experience. This is greatly thanks to my graceful, knowledgeable and care taking guide Lisa (additionally she also has a very good command of English). I shall also give a special mention to our driver who every day drove us safely in a very modern and clean "Hong Qi" (my first time, yep!) At no point in time would I feel any COVID-related risk, the company actually provided each day two masks and hand sanitizer(s). One personal regret was that I could not go to JiuZhaiGou, the site not being opened to foreigners (I was duly informed when I made the trip reservation); Nonetheless, I did see so many beautiful and interesting spots that it is only but a further motivation to come back. The epitome was obviously the Panda base, but just to state a few amongst others, I liked in particular LeShan big Buddha, Emei shan, QingCheng shan (the birth place of Taoism) and Dujiangyan, the irrigation system which has been in use for some 1500 years! I also enjoyed the food which eventually was not as spicy as I could have feared. Hum, this was again thanks to Lisa's good care who made sure that the dishes would be adapted to my european palate! In short, this trip has been a real match, it will remain vivid in my memory. Great thanks to all who took part to its flawless organization and made it so peasant.
