Itinerary
- 1Your personal tour guide will collect you from your hotel at around 8:00 am. Your first stop is the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, which pioneered the breeding and preservation of this endangered species. The pandas are at their most active in the mornings, so you'll have the chance to see furry creatures of all ages eating and playing. Later your guide will recommend some local restaurants where you can enjoy Sichuan specialties: lunch is at your own expense. After lunch, you can take your pick of your preferred Chengdu sites – time and traffic permitting, of course. Your guide will be happy to advise on what is possible or to manage your time over lunch and with the pandas to enable a longer trip. Choose from Dujiangyan Irrigation Project, Mount Qingcheng, Leshan Grand Buddha, Sanxingdui Museum, Qingyang Palace, Du Fu Cottage, Wuhou Memorial Temple. Whichever option you choose, you'll be back at your hotel at the trip.
About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- YPl340 contributionsSkip this, unless you absolutely love Sichuan cuisineSad street food variety and experience. Sad shows of silly noodle slicing and chicken cooking. It was a waste of few hours for us.Written 14 March 2024
- Jimecg0 contributionsMissing the Leshan Giant BuddhaEverything started good, our guide Vivian was kind and very helpful. But after the visit to the Panda Breeding Center she told us that the agency couldn’t buy our tickets for the Buddha because we didn’t t have a Chinese ID and in the ticket office they were already sold out. So we didn’t see the Leshan Buddha and they only refund the amount of the ticket for the Buddha (70RMB) and got a visit to Jinlin street. I think the agency should know and be prepared for these kind of things. We only had one complete day in Chengdu and we couldn’t see the Buddha, which was one of our priorities in the trip. We are very disappointed.Written 6 October 2019
- WorldTravler19460 contributionsHad a private tour with China Highlights which I arranged before leaving the USAHighly recommend both these sights. I would definitely so a private tour to both places. The guides know where to go, where to stand on the boat and where to get the best pictures. This was a two day trip for both sights.Written 29 October 2018
- Angie L0 contributionsGreat attractions, great guideOur guide Bella was the best guide we had in three weeks of tours around China. Her English was excellent, she was very knowledgeable, but also very chatty and interested in us. On the long trip to Leshan we chatted and we felt like old friends chatting, not like a guide giving us endless historic soundbites and nothing else. This gave us a better understanding of life in China than anything else. She made sure that we got to see the pandas at a time when they are active, which is very important, as they sleep for a lot of the day. The pandas were amazing. I wasn't looking forward to a trip to a "zoo" that much, expecting sad animals in cages, but the pandas are very well treated and seem very content. The whole centre has been planted with bamboo to create a natural feel, and it is beautiful. Bella took us to her favourite restaurant at lunch and we were glad to have her sit with us to try some authentic local food, even dishes specific to Leshan itself. The Buddha was spectacular. I don't know whether it is best to see it from a boat or from the land, but either way it is huge and worth the trip to visit. I can't recommend this highly enough.Written 1 November 2017
