Subjects Incredible Private Tour of Chengdu and Leshan
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Incredible Private Tour of Chengdu and Leshan! I had an absolutely wonderful experience with my private tour guide Sarah exploring Chengdu and Leshan, China. What made this tour so special was not only seeing the incredible sights, but also having someone who could help me understand and appreciate the everyday life and culture of In Chengdu, visiting the Giant Panda was, of course, unforgettable! But I also loved experiencing the beauty of everyday life in People’s Park. Watching people gather, socialize, dance, relax, and enjoy their day gave me a wonderful glimpse into life in Chengdu. The unique matchmaking tradition, including the famous “blue resumes,” was fascinating and something I would never have discovered on my own. Sara also introduced me to the local opera which was really a number of performances, including gymnastics singing instruments handed shadows and just a very fun evening. I spent 90 minute literallylaughing and enjoying myself. And then there was the FOOD! My guide introduced me to incredible local dishes in both Chengdu and Leshan, including cold pot, which was completely new to me. It was such a fun experience to try something I had never encountered before and to learn about the local food culture along the way. In Leshan, seeing the Leshan Giant Buddha was truly breathtaking. Standing in front of such an enormous and historic work of art was one of the highlights of my time in China. But seeing the statue from the boat really showed the enormity of the Buddha, which was absolutely incredible.! My guide was knowledgeable, patient, friendly, and genuinely interested in making sure I had a wonderful experience. I especially appreciated being able to see Chengdu and Leshan beyond just the typical tourist attractions and to experience the culture, food, people, and history in a much more personal way. She even helped me figure out how to get wine delivered to my hotel and I had the fun experience of having it delivered by a robot. I highly recommend this private tour to anyone visiting Chengdu. It was an unforgettable day and an experience that gave me memories I will treasure! Five stars without hesitation! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
