10/10 recommend for anyone visiting Chengdu

Fantastic tour taking us to the new section of the panda research base first when there were virtually no other people there. SanXingDui is almost other worldly and one of the coolest museums I have ever been to.

Fabulous Visit But A Good Guide Makes a Huge Difference

It was a great visit to Sanxingdui Museum to see the antient artifacts and cultures of a lost people. Our guide Cora was very helpful. My husband has limited mobility. Cora was able to arrange a wheelchair and she pushed the wheelchair the entire time while we were at the museum. It was crowded at the museum and she made sure to get to the front of the crowd so that my husband could see the exhibits up and close. The lunch was delicious and the panda preserve was a beautiful place. It was great to see pandas in their natural habitat. I got sick during the days in Chengdu and needed assistance to get on the train at Chengdu train station. In desperate, I contacted Cora and she was able find us personal helpers at Chengdu train station. When we arrived at the station by taxi, the helpers were there waiting for us. They wheelchaired us into the station and onto the train with our luggage in tow. It was such a smooth and pleasant journey. I would definitely recommend Cora as a guide when visiting Chengdu.

Excellent trip and I highly recommend anyone who wants to have more personalized experience in Chengdu

We loved the tour. Our tour guide, Hogo is very responsive, kind, knowledgeable and speaks good English. He reminded us to bring umbrella. At the panda base, he told us many things about panda, their habitat, history. The lunch was local and delicious. Samxingdui museum was really crowded. He managed to get us to less crowded area and told us all the stories about the museum and Sanxingdui culture. My 17 year old daughter and I are very impressed about everything. If we come back, we will definitely contact Hogo again.

Fun and get to know a lost civilization

Enjoyed several minutes watching baby panda playing, climbing, rolling, hanging upside down until mama panda stopped her. My guide, Veronica, was very friendly and informative. Excellent day trip.

Sanxingdu Site

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.
