Lucy gave me an excellent experience to mount Qingcheng. She's very friendly, taught me a lot about Taoism, Chinese culture and we talked considerably about our own personal lives during that whole time. I loved the whole experience. She definitely knows Chinese history since I've questioned her about millions of things, to which she replied masterfully. The rain ruined our entrance to the Irrigation System, so mind of the weather on the day that you book.
Educational Day Trip!

I had a private tour with my tour guide Amber. I was picked up right on time and she gave me a lot of back ground information on the hour drive to the Dujiangyan Irrigation System. Amber knew all about the engineering behind this 2000 year old marvel and really made me appreciate the brilliant design. We were then off to Mount Qingcheng for a two hour walk up stairs to Shangqing palace. Make sure you have comfortable shoes and are ready for a lot of stairs (my Apple watch recorded 42 flights worth!). Amanda even helped me find my Taoist protector. Great trip, highly recommend!

The whole experience, from the booking through the actual tour was an excellent. Lilly provided clear communication leading up to the tour date which eliminated any questions or concerns. On the day of the tour, Molly, our tour guide, did an excellent job. She knew the location well and was able to provide interesting facts as we progressed through our day. This is a first rate, highly professional team.
Good tour away from the city

I booked this for my parents and they enjoyed the tour. They were lucky with good weather and the tour guide brought them to a highly rated restaurant for lunch. The car was comfortable and spacious.

The tour guide Cassie was the best tour guide I have met. She explained the rich history behind the sites very well and my son was captivated by the intriguing stories. The driver was also very nice and helpful. Overall it felt like traveling with good friends instead of with a company. I would recommend this tour company to everyone.
Excellent

Our guide, Lucy, was very knowledgeable, patient and friendly. Lucy was very flexible with the itinerary and customised it according to our requests. Lucy also shared with us many tips and popular eateries we can consider in Chengdu. Separately, the booking process was simple and Lily, the sales representative was responsive and informative. Highly recommend! Suitable for all types of travellers, family with elderly, family with young children, couple or even solo.

We booked with WestChinagGo a daily tour for "Panda Feeding+Dujiangyan Irrigation System". Everything was perfectly organized (thanks to Lily support) and our tour guide (Terry) was very helpful. He gave us a lot of recommendations to enjoy our time in Chengdu. His english is perfect! If you love panda the feeding experience is highly recommended, you will see one panda very close! even if for two minutes... and the irrigation system is pretty unique in the world and the location is very nice. We went in summertime and even if it was very crowded, we love the experience.
Superb insights, highly recommend!

Outstanding day with Bella (Su) being guided to volunteer with pandas and on a mountain walk. Bella has an enormous wealth of knowledge to share, is immensely helpful with all our endless questions and very adaptive to the groups needs as the day went along. Really enjoyed meeting Bella and would very highly recommend - she went above and beyond!
