Best day trip from Chongqing!

5.00Must do in Chongqing! Legend contacted me shortly after booking with contact info and pick up instructions. He was very puntual. Car was perfect and 2hr drive went by very fast. Legend shared A LOT of information not only about Dazu but also China, which was fascinating for us. We’re not English native speakers, so his perfect American accent made it so easy for us to understand. Lunch was AMAZING! Delicious hot pot. And both sites visited were truly wonderful. Would do it again and recommend it!
Glad we picked Legend to guide us!

5.00Enjoyed our tour very much! Legend is very knowledgeable and keen on sharing all about the history of the Dazu rock carvings. The lunch spot was great, with locally sourced ingredients, and since we weren't really into the hot pot meat, we had tofu instead - equally tasty! We plan on visiting China again and will definitely be booking a tour with Legends once more!
Unmissable excursion

5.00Excellent excursion and guide. The explanation and details provided by the guide enriched the visit of cultural value. The sculptures carved in stones are very interesting and are preserved despite the time. The guide included a delicious and healthy traditional meal with a local family. I highly recommend the excursion.
Best tour and lunch!

5.00We went on an amazing Legend tour to the Dazu Rock Carvings today, and our guide, Legend, truly lived up to his name! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience engaging and fun. Lunch was one of the best we’ve had in China—fresh, delicious local food with no tourist traps or unnecessary sales. Everything felt authentic and well-organized. If you ever visit China, we highly recommend joining Legend’s tour. He’s professional, passionate, and ensures everyone has a great time exploring the beautiful carvings and learning their history. An unforgettable experience with an exceptional guide!

5.00We were lucky to have Legend as our driver-guide again for this tour. Dazu has magnificent carvings, which we appreciated all the more because of Legend’s deep knowledge of Buddhism and local history. Lunch was again very tasty - this time it was a local fish hotpot. Definitely would recommend.
Legend is great!

5.00Legend was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a fantastic experience of the Dazu Rock Carvings. He took us through a secret path to avoid queues and tourist traps. The car we were driven in was quite comfortable. As for the lunch, we went to a small family owned place and tried hot pot for the first time.
Great experience seeing the Dazu Rock Carvings

5.00Legend is a great tour guide who drove us safely to Dazu to see the rock carvings at Baoding and Beishan. He kindly explained to us the history and meaning for the shrines. For lunch, we ate suen cai yu (酸菜鱼) at a local restaurant. It was really filling and delicious 🤤 You can count on Legend for a great day! 👍

5.00Requires climbing. The carvings itself are phenomenal. Steeped in history, now a World Heritage site. Our tour guide, Legend Kung was forthcoming and helpful. I am a deaf man. Legend Kung typed painstakingly for me.
Legend is highly recommended

5.00Very good tour overall. Highly recommend Legend as your guide because he’s a direct, no non-sense, detailed guide who provides clear explanations of the carvings. You won’t feel rushed even though we went thru the carvings in a timely manner.
