Example days we can run for you
These are realistic plans, not fixed group tours. Use them as inspiration and follow them independently, or let us arrange the car, tickets and a companion and handle everything.
Giant Pandas + Old Chengdu & Hotpot
The classic first day in Chengdu: see the pandas at their most active in the early morning, wander the old streets of Kuanzhai Alley, and end with a proper Sichuan hotpot. Tickets, transport and ordering handled.
- Giant Panda Base at opening, when the pandas are eating and playing
- See red pandas and, in season, the baby panda nursery
- Old Chengdu at Kuanzhai Alley — tea, snacks and lanes
Chengdu Culture Day: Shrines, Streets & Face-Changing Opera
A slower day in old Chengdu — the Wuhou Shrine and Jinli street, Du Fu's Thatched Cottage, a People's Park tea house, and an evening Sichuan Opera face-changing show.
- Wuhou Shrine — China's famous Three Kingdoms memorial garden
- Jinli Ancient Street for snacks, crafts and lantern-lit lanes
- Du Fu's Thatched Cottage, home of China's great poet
Leshan Giant Buddha Day Trip from Chengdu
See the world's largest stone Buddha in a relaxed full day from Chengdu — a private car door to door, passport tickets handled and an English-speaking companion to walk the cliff route or take the river boat with you.
- Stand at the feet of the 71-metre Tang-dynasty Giant Buddha
- Door-to-door private car from your Chengdu hotel and back
- Optional river boat for the classic full-front view
Dujiangyan & Mount Qingcheng Day Trip
A greener day out of the city: the 2,000-year-old Dujiangyan irrigation system (a UNESCO site and engineering marvel), with the option of misty, Taoist Mount Qingcheng — and a chance to add the quieter Dujiangyan panda base.
- Dujiangyan — the ancient irrigation system still working after 2,000 years
- Mount Qingcheng, birthplace of Taoism, green and misty
- Option to add the quieter Dujiangyan panda base
