5.00Booked our trip with Lilly - who was fantastic at communicating with us. Yana was our tour guide and she was fabulous. She was very knowledgeable and knew where to take us to see the Pandas and got great photos at the Buddha. Also - the lunch was one of the best - we told her what types of food we liked and she orders an amazing meal for us - we even tried the preserved eggs. Highly recommend this tour!
Great guide and smoothly experience

5.00We had a great experience with our tour guide and driver. Lin (Amber) is a very sympathetic person, very knowledgeable and patient. With her deep experience, she helped us to going through the mobs smoothly. Panda experience was unforgettable since we could see some of them eating and playing outside. The Giant Buddha was also very interesting, despite the distance that we had to go through (almost 2 hours). Considering the distance of the 2 attractions, I recommend the tour, which makes possible to see both in the same day.
Great way to spend a day

5.00Great day trip if you're short on time in Chengdu, my guide Lucy + our driver were both excellent. She knew the best ways to see as many pandas as possible in the time we had, and it was wonderful to have someone handling translations, tickets, food ordering, etc. Highly recommend!

5.00Wonderful full day tour to see the highlights of the surrounding area. We went in the morning to see the pandas which were adorable. There was even a 4 month old out soaking up the sunshine. Then we had a spectacular local lunch in Leshan followed by a hike of the magnificent giant Buddha. Our guide Sharlene couldn’t have been more lovely. Her English was excellent and we learned a lot at each step of the journey. Her food recommendations for lunch were also very helpful and we learned a lot about local delicacies as an added bonus!
