Excellent Experience with Emily! - We had a fantastic day out with Emily Jade! She was super flexible on the itinerary and customized to meet our interests. The tour was a great mix of history and anecdotes shared by Emily about her life and views. After the tour, Emily went above and beyond to help us with transportation we needed a few days later outside the city. She communicated directly with another driver (who only spoke Mandarin) to coordinate our transport to and from a panda reserve. Also, her colleague who drove us on both occasions was very helpful and had a comfortable clean car. 10 out of 10.

Perfect way to get to know the city - The guided tour was a very good choice, it allowed me to get a good idea about the city. Wu, the guide, was excellent. He shared a great deal of stories about the city and its history, he was knowledgeable, friendly and patient to allow me enough time to see the old streets, the buildings, shops, temples and parks. I have already told my friends all about it. If you want a nice way to see the most interesting parts of Chengdu, this tour would save you time and the hassle to choose where to go, in what order and how to get there.

Wonderful Tour with Bella - This was an absolutely amazing tour of Chengdu. We went to each site at the perfect time so nothing was too crowded. All of the sites we went to were beautiful and there’s was an opportunity to get souvenirs here and there, but they were never required. For lunch we got to try local Sichuan food and we could decide the level of spiciness. Our tour guide, Bella, was extremely knowledgeable, and she told us all about the different sites in Chengdu and answered our questions about the city and Chinese history. She was extremely helpful and personable, and she took many pictures for us. We would recommend this tour to anyone who is interested!!

Book this tour! - This is my favourite tour guide so far on my trip. Emily is a fabulous guide, fun, kind, full of knowledge about the city, its history and interesting to talk to about life in the city. It was great to see local parks, old annd new streets, the amazing Buddhist temple and I particularly liked matchmakers corner! We had a delicious lunch and getting to have a look through a few shops with the help of someone who knows how everything works is invaluable. I would definitely recommend this tour it’s a great way to learn about the city and wider area.

Excellent tour of Chengdu with our guide Emily - We had a wonderful time on our tour with our guide Emily. The tour started with the Wuhu temple and Jianli ancient street. We then visited Wenshu monastry.
Post lunch we visited the wide and narrow alleys and people's park.
A wonderful introduction to this beautiful city of parks.
Emily helped us in shopping for Sichuan jasmine green tea and a few soveneirs.
She also told us how to visit the Jianli ancient street in the late evening on our own which we did.
Overall a wonderful experience. Highly remommend this tour as an introduction to Chengdu with our knowledgable and helpful guide, Emily.

Amazing Day Trip in Chengdu - Emily is an wonderful tour guide who took me around to the most important places in the city in a day and gave me a good introduction to this beautiful place. She is also quite flexible, e.g., realizing that I am not a shopper, she took me to People’s Park instead, which was a great place to observe locals. The lunch restaurant Emily took me was sooo delicious! Best double-cooked pork ever :). Lastly, the vehicle was new and very comfortable! Highly recommend this tour and Emily to any visitor to Chengdu!
