Evan was an amazing tour guide.
Evan was an amazing tour guide. Very friendly and english was perfect. He did a great job of explaining to us the history of china as well as his experience with his family and their traditions. We did the panda experience as well as the jiuzhaigou national park. We brought 3 kids with our group and we were a total of 7. He was patient with our kids and kept them entertained. Evan made a suggestion of visiting a local tea house since our itinerary was tight and he was incredibly thoughtful and made our experience seamless. more

Enjoyable short stay in Chengdu
Although we only had half a day in Chengdu, Evan, our guide, made sure we had a great time at the Panda Breeding and research centre, feeding us little interesting nuggets of information about pandas throughout the tour. The Szechuan hot pot was also very enjoyable. Thoroughly enjoyable experience! more

Suggested Itinerary
Here is a suggested itinerary and the timetable is only for reference. We can also flexibly adjust the itinerary based on your arrangement and the day's situation.
In the morning, your guide will pick you up from your hotel in urban Chengdu. Your guide will call you one day in advance to your hotel or leave a message to double-check the pick-up time with you.
The first stop is Panda Breeding and Research Center, home to nearly 50 giant pandas and red pandas. This beautifully laid-out park is about 10 kilometers (six miles) from downtown Chengdu, with excellent walkways to various open panda enclosures. The base is called a paradise for national treasures and features luxury panda villas nestled amid the woods.
After carefully observing pandas in the morning, head to a downtown art studio to create your ink painting of pandas. Guided by a traditional Chinese painting instructor, you'll learn to master the Chinese ink brush. You can not only create traditional Chinese ink paintings but also let your imagination run wild, crafting a unique panda based on your envision.
After that, you will be transferred to Chunxi Road to take photos with the 15-meter-tall climbing panda sculpture. Created by preeminent artist Lawrence Argent, this climbing wall panda is called "I Am Here!" It will be an interesting experience to capture the moment with this trendy landmark of Chengdu.
At the end of the trip, we will escort you to your hotel, the airport, the cruise port, or the train station.
