Sharleen provided exceptional service from beginning to end. She was knowledgeable, warm and friendly. I would recommend her as a guide any time!
Rainy day trip from Chengdu to Qincheng/Dujiangyan was pure magic! 🌧️ Mist-covered mountains, easy cable car, and mind-blowing ancient engineering—grab a guide! Total bliss. 🌿✨
Enjoyable tour to the Duyjangyan irrigation system and Mount QingCheng. The irrigation system was really interesting, particularly with how it was completed so long ago, some great pictures with the mountains in the background as well. Mount QingCheng was also a really interesting look into the birthplace of Taoism in China. There was lots of outdoor walking in some beautiful scenery as well. Guide Lucy was friendly and very knowledgeable, great for a first timer to China
Both Mount Qinsheng and the Dujiangyan irrigation system are beautiful places teeming with history of taoism and chinese engineering, respectively. I highly recommend everyone visits those spots when in Chengdu. My guide, Amber, was very helpful and friendly. Her informative explanations about the history and meaning of visited places were crucial for satisfying my interest. I would highly recommend this experience.
True. Dujiangyan and Mt.Qingcheng are very beautiful and historical. Just not so many people know about the value. Glad you chose this trip and enjoyed your time! Thank you for choosing our service!
Lucy gave me an excellent experience to mount Qingcheng. She's very friendly, taught me a lot about Taoism, Chinese culture and we talked considerably about our own personal lives during that whole time. I loved the whole experience. She definitely knows Chinese history since I've questioned her about millions of things, to which she replied masterfully. The rain ruined our entrance to the Irrigation System, so mind of the weather on the day that you book.
I had a private tour with my tour guide Amber. I was picked up right on time and she gave me a lot of back ground information on the hour drive to the Dujiangyan Irrigation System. Amber knew all about the engineering behind this 2000 year old marvel and really made me appreciate the brilliant design. We were then off to Mount Qingcheng for a two hour walk up stairs to Shangqing palace. Make sure you have comfortable shoes and are ready for a lot of stairs (my Apple watch recorded 42 flights worth!). Amanda even helped me find my Taoist protector. Great trip, highly recommend!

We had a great time and our guide was very knowledgeable... this is the first time we visited chengdu, and we loved this city.
The whole experience, from the booking through the actual tour was an excellent. Lilly provided clear communication leading up to the tour date which eliminated any questions or concerns.

I booked this for my parents and they enjoyed the tour. They were lucky with good weather and the tour guide brought them to a highly rated restaurant for lunch. The car was comfortable and spacious.
