Itinerary Quick Look
Here is a suggested itinerary. We are happy to customize a tour to suit your interests.
Take a high-speed train from Chengdu to the Jiuzhaigou area. Upon arrival, your private guide and driver will welcome you at Huanglongjiuzhai Station, from where you'll proceed to the nearby Huanglong National Scenic Spot.
For your convenience, we'll arrange a cable car and shuttle bus to swiftly transport you to the top, where you'll witness the iconic Five-Color Pond, saving your energy and time. Then, embark on a descent, tracing the valley's watery wonders, enveloped by the primal forest and immersed in the breathtaking grandeur.
Jiuzhaigou, China's premier water landscape, offers breathtaking natural beauty across its three valleys. A two-day visit lets you explore at a leisurely pace.
Our expert guides will tailor your experience, selecting the best routes based on weather, crowd levels, timing, and your preferences.
On the first day, explore Zechawa and Rize Valleys by sightseeing bus and on foot. Discover stunning sights like Long Lake, Five-Color Pond, and the Pearl Shoal Waterfall from "Journey to the West." Enjoy a relaxing buffet lunch at Nuorilang Restaurant.
Why not dazzle your social media with stunning photos from Jiuzhaigou? In a two-hour session, let our professional photographer guide you through capturing breathtaking shots in traditional Tibetan attire against azure lakes and lush forests.
After the photoshoot, you'll have ample time to continue exploring the beauty of Shuzheng Valley. We highly recommend the hiking trail at Reed Lake, a less crowded spot where a blue river runs like a jade belt amidst golden reeds. If the weather permits, you can enjoy a picnic lunch today.
Across Jiuzhaigou's bustling tourist scene lies the tranquil Zhongchagou, a hidden gem known as 'Jiuzhaigou's Secret Garden.' Here, prayer flags flutter and yaks graze by Tibetan villages. Embark on a scenic 30-minute walk through lush grasslands. After this brief journey, immerse yourself in local life with a village elder, savoring local delicacies and butter tea, while absorbing tales of daily rituals and sacred symbols.
With Jiuzhaigou's youth increasingly detached from their cultural roots, this experience provides a rare glimpse into the fading Tibetan traditions.
After lunch, briefly explore a private museum dedicated to Tibetan and Qiang cultures. Then, dive into hands-on craft experiences: make Tibetan incense, paint Thangka (using mineral and plant pigments), and more. Transition from observer to creator, immersing yourself in the artistry.
After your day tour concludes, you'll be transported to Huanglongjiuzhai Station for your return journey to Chengdu.
