What To Expect
Liziba Station
Your journey into the cyberpunk metropolis begins at Liziba Monorail Station. Instead of a quick drive-by, we guide the group to the dedicated Viewing Platform for the best angle to capture Line 2 vanishing directly into a 19-story residential building. Witness this engineering marvel and learn how locals live in harmony with the train.
Next, explore the city’s authentic soul at Baixiangju Apartments(白象居) located in Baixiang Street(白象街). This legendary "vertical village," built in the 1990s without elevators, features a maze of skybridges connecting 24 floors. Navigate its corridors to experience the confusing reality of entering on the 1st floor and exiting on the 12th onto a different street. With cinematic views of the Yangtze River and cable cars, it’s a favorite filming location for movies like "Better Days" and a raw glimpse into local life. Note:Due to the high visitor flow in peak season, Baixiangju may be closed to visitors. If this happens, we will arrange a visit to E’ling erchang Cultural and Creative Park instead, which is also an iconic landmark of Chongqing. Please kindly be aware of this.

Chongqing city tour

5.00We had an excellent experience on this Chongqing city tour. The itinerary was very well designed and covered all of the city’s iconic highlights, including Hongya Cave, Liziba Station, the Yangtze River Cableway, Longmenhao, Kuixinglou, and several fascinating viewpoints that truly showcase Chongqing’s unique “8D” urban landscape. What made the experience exceptional was our guide, Eunice. She was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly well organized throughout the day. Her English was excellent, and she provided interesting historical and cultural insights that helped us better understand Chongqing’s history, architecture, and local lifestyle. Eunice was also very attentive to the needs of the group, ensuring that everyone was comfortable, knew where to meet, and had enough time to enjoy each stop. She was happy to answer questions, offer local recommendations, and share personal insights about the city, which made the tour feel much more authentic and engaging. Chongqing can be an overwhelming city for first-time visitors due to its size, geography, and complexity, but Eunice made everything easy and enjoyable. Thanks to her guidance, we were able to appreciate both the famous landmarks and the unique character of the city. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Chongqing, and especially recommend requesting Eunice as your guide if possible. She was a major reason why our experience was so memorable.

5.00We had a great tour with William he explained everything well and answered all our questions. It was a fun and informative time in Chongquing. We are here for only two days and we saw so much and it’s totally worth it. He is friendly and my girlfriend was afraid of heights and when we were on the rooftop he played a song on his phone and helped her feel at ease and even took a video of us dancing. Down to earth tour guide, highly recommended!
