          Great day in Chengdu and Leshan
          Sophia was a delight. She was an excellent guide in trying to make the day not only Informative but also fun. She and the driver, Mr. Wu, took very good care of me through a very long (because of traffic) day. I would highly recommend this tour to get the very best of Chengdu if you only have a day to spend in the city.

          Fantastic experience!
          Loved our cooking lesson, so much fun made all the better by the the lovely April, what a treasure she was, so many laughs had and now my husband can cook Kung Pao Chicken and make Panda cakes! The tour of the Museum is also very interesting. All in all a fabulous activity, highly, highly recommended if you are in Chengdu.

          What an incredible Place these artifacts date back 2000BC from pottery to Jade Sculptures. One of the interesting aspects is the collection of masks and the divine tress - fascinating. Well worth the time to visit.

          Tradition and technology
          Music may not please western ears. But it is a great show that combines dance, singing, illusionism, puppet theater, shadow theater, juggling and technology. A show that thrilled, despite the cultural difference between eastern and western.

        This was by far the most exciting tour. I couldn't wait for the pandas to be released from there enclosures in the morning and then suddenly they all troop out. They are just the cutest. You are pretty darn close to view them though safe. The pandas have lovely areas to eat and play in. They appear to be well cared for and loved. We got to watch twins playing with their mother and what a blast that was. Make sure you do this when you are in Chengdu

        We got a taxi from our apartment and arrived at 07:30 as they opened the gates to the public.and we made our way to the pandas who were being feed with newly cut bamboo. In total we saw about 50 pandas and incredible experience. After they eat apparently they go to sleep, you need to go early to get the best experience. You can buy panda toys in town much cheaper than the shop there. We found some panda T shirts at one of the airport shops there are none at the Panda Research Base.

        We visited here as part of our escorted China Tour. It was really great. The pandas were easily visible and all seemed happy in their environment.
        Well worth a visit.
