Itinerary Quick Look

Here is a suggested itinerary, but we are happy to customize a tour according to your interests.

DAY 1 Chengdu Arrival

Upon your arrival at Chengdu Airport, your private guide and driver will be there to pick you up and transfer you to your hotel in Chengdu. The rest of the day is yours to explore the city at your own pace or simply relax.

DAY 2 Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou | Songpan Ancient Town

Enjoy your breakfast, then take a 2-hour train from Chengdu to Songpan.

Founded 14 centuries ago, it was a key garrison in the Tang Dynasty (619–907). This ancient town on the Western Sichuan Plateau has admirably preserved its city walls. Today, its vibrant local life offers a glimpse into the city's past bustling tea-house trade. Be sure to try the local culinary delights: delicious yak meat skewers and hot pot.

After visiting Songpan Ancient Town for 1-2 hours, drive for 2 hours to a hotel near Jiuzhaigou.

DAY 3 Jiuzhaigou | Jiuzhaigou National Park

Immerse yourself in the vibrant hues of Jiuzhaigou for an entire day. You will be transported by the park's shuttle service, touring the highlights from the top of either Rize Valley or Zechawa Valley, such as Five Flower Lake, Long Lake, and Norilang Waterfall.

Given the vast area of Jiuzhaigou, our professional guides will plan the journey, balancing shuttle rides and walking, to ensure you comfortably appreciate the most captivating views of the season.

DAY 4 Jiuzhaigou to Chengdu | Huanglong National Park

Today, you'll travel from your hotel in Jiuzhaigou to the Huanglong area, visiting Huanglong National Park. Embark on a journey to China's only well-preserved plateau wetland national reserve and be awestruck by its stunning natural beauty.

After the visit, you'll return to Chengdu from Huanglong-Jiuzhaigou Station. Your driver and guide will ensure a comfortable return to your hotel in Chengdu.

DAY 5 Dujiangyan | Panda and Irrigation System

After breakfast, embark on a 1-hour drive from Chengdu to Dujiangyan.

Visit the Dujiangyan Panda Base, where you'll have the opportunity to meet the adorable pandas. Many pandas, like Le Le who returned from Singapore, have made this place their home.

After lunch, witness the marvel of the 2300-year-old Dujiangyan Irrigation System. This ancient engineering feat still manages the Minjiang River's waters, nourishing the fertile Chengdu plains. Accompanied by an experienced guide, you'll delve into its ecological wisdom and discover the timeless secrets behind its millennia-long operation.

Experience the enchantment of the Dujiangyan Blue Tears as night falls, when the Minjiang River comes alive with a technicolor glow. This man-made light show is nestled within the bustling Guanxian Ancient City, perfect for a leisurely evening stroll.

DAY 6 Chengdu Departure

Goodbye! As your tour concludes, you'll be driven to the airport, ready to embark on your journey home.
