  Before coming to Chengdu, we were struggling with how to plan our only full day here. We wanted to make good use of the time but were not sure what to choose or how to arrange everything. When we found Ji’s Panda and Leshan Buddha day tour, it immediately made sense. Seeing the pandas, visiting the Giant Buddha and enjoying local food all in one day sounded just right for what we were hoping for. The private car was comfortable and the whole trip went smoothly from start to finish. Ji was thoughtful, professional and easy to talk to. He took care of every detail and made the day relaxed and enjoyable. And by the way, Ji is pretty handsome too. 😄

  A lovely day out with the pandas and to see the giant Buddha. I had a good guide(Liu), he could give an answer to my questions.

• Definitely the tour to do and worth every penny

  This was a fabulous private tour of the Chengdu Panda research base and the Leshan big Buddha. Lui Ji was our guide, spoke excellent English and was very mindful of our group that included my elderly parents. He highlighted the best places to stand to get the best pictures and is an experienced panda spotter, which is particularly useful when there are crowds. The tour package explains what's included and yes, you can get group tours for cheaper but the aspects that you'll benefit from this are invaluable. Seeing the pandas requires an early start and the morning pickup is your group alone. No need for time spent going to multiple hotels before setting off to the panda base. It's a long day and the 7:30am pick up means you all get to fuel up at breakfast before setting off. Timing is important because too early, the pandas are being fed and you won't see much; just after breakfast, they're at their most active so opportunities for fab panda videos (we got loads). Lui Ji is your personal guide answering questions and providing you relevant facts. He can amend the tour to suit your interests. Lunch was at a local restaurant in Leshan with a variety of authentic local dishes to keep us going... tasty! Note... this is a long day and the comfortable air conditioned vehicle was appreciated in getting us around,nipping past all the large coaches and again delivering us back to our hotel directly. If getting a good tour to see the best of Chengdu is important, then this is the one to opt for. You might question why bother with Leshan big Buddha as well but it's a UNESCO heritage site and how often are we in Chengdu; make your visit worth it! Many thanks Lui Ji for making this tour as wonderful for my parents as well as myself. He amended the Leshan Buddha hike to a boat cruise as he spotted them flagging . 🤣❤️

• A tour definitely worth doing and worth every
