Traveling with kids can be tricky, Michelle designed a plan with shorter travel times, fun cultural activities, and plenty of rest. The advice was practical and realistic, which we truly appreciated. We booked a private tour for a family of 4, we enjoyed every moment, and everything ran smoothly. I have no words to describe how the experience was amazing.

As first-time visitors, we had many questions and worries. Max patiently explained everything and helped us design an easy, logical route. We told her we wanted to understand Chinese culture deeply, not just take photos. Their recommendations were spot-on, and the pacing was perfect. We felt confident and relaxed throughout the trip. Five stars without hesitation.

FAQs on Chengdu Tours
How long should I stay for a basic private Beijing tour package?

A Chengdu tour usually takes about 1–2 full days to cover the city’s main highlights. The must-visit site is the Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, where visitors can see giant pandas up close. Other popular attractions include the Jinsha Site Museum, Sanxingdui Museum, Dujiangyan Irrigation System, as well as Wide and Narrow Alleys and Jinli Street.

If you want to explore further, such as Buddhist sites or natural scenery, a side trip to Leshan and Mount Emei or Jiuzhaigou is highly recommended, which typically requires an additional 2–3 days.
