We booked the tour with Ms. Lily, who is very nice and sympathetic, the same as our driver, Sun Lin. Sun Lin is a friendly, helpful and patient driver. With great working attitude, he always try his very best to ensure both me and my wife have a smooth sailing and enjoyable vacation in Chengdu, Leshan and Er Mei, with no unnecessary time wasted. He also kind enough to go the extra miles to give us some basic introduction on the history and the stories of the places we are visiting, which we found it very useful. Awesome and will definitely the services to friends, relatives and colleagues who want to visit China. We had a good time exploring the Chengdu, Leshan and Er Mei mountain. Very beautiful places. I definitely recommend it! 👍I traveled solo to Sichuan province and wanted to see so many things that I didnt know where to start or how to do it as I do not speak chinese; I contacted Lily and she suggested this tour plus some other trips around Chengdu city.

I traveled solo to Sichuan province and wanted to see so many things that I didnt know where to start or how to do it as I do not speak chinese; I contacted Lily and she suggested this tour plus some other trips around Chengdu city. Sharleen came along with me throughout my stay and she was absolutly perfect; I couldn´t have done it without her. Very happy to have met her; great conversation, always helpful and good knowledge of the history of the places Specifically this tour was amazing, it was a very foggy day and it was rainning all day long, but the walk to the top of the mountain with its splendid temple was worth it. Leshan Buddah its breathtaking, unfortunately it was under construction, but I could admired it´s head and walk around the area; we had a delicious lunch at the fish village together with our driver, whom I have to say is also a very nice person If you are travelling there, I highly recommend booking a tour with Lily!!Due to poor weather conditions we could not see the magnificent figure clearly, but it is immense. The temple is beautiful, as most of them are. It is quite a climb up to the temple even after taking the cable car. If you are short of time, it is recommended that you take the cable car.

Due to poor weather conditions we could not see the magnificent figure clearly, but it is immense. The temple is beautiful, as most of them are. It is quite a climb up to the temple even after taking the cable car. If you are short of time, it is recommended that you take the cable car. We had taken a bus from Emeishan. The price of the ticket included the cost of the cable car and of the bus to the lower hills. The drive is beautiful throughout with the road running along side the river. One can see a lot of Tea gardens on the way to the lower hills. We did come across some pretty birds but could not see the famous Macaques who had gone into hiding due to the constant rain.We booked the tour with Ms. Lily, who is very nice and sympathetic, the same as our tour guide, Ms. Summer. We had a good time exploring the Giant Buddha site and Emei mountain. Very beautiful places. I definitely recommend it! 👍

Lily was my private tour guide. I cannot say enough good things about her. Reasonably fluent in English, Lily took care of my needs, was flexible in our itineraries, and making sure I had a wonderful time. She was punctual meeting me at the hotel. Throughout the trip, she would teach and inform me about local Chinese culture. The highlight of my trip was being at the summit of Emei, with a breathtaking view overlooking the mountains amidst crisp air. It was a breath of fresh air after we had hiked for more than 30 mins on a snowy day, after getting out of the cable car. Luckily it wasn't cloudy, making the view all the more spectacular. Even if you are not a Buddhist, you can still admire and marvel at the statue and monastery atop the mountion, 3,000 ft above sea level. Travelling by speed train was comfortable and fast. A 3 -4 star hotel, the accomodation that night was fantastic and quiet, only 200 meters from Baoguo temple. The next day she took me to Leshan giant Buddha, followed by a nice lunch by the river and some hiking, before the driver picked us up to the speed train station, back to Chengdu. In the city of Leshan, such a surprise it was I got to paint Chinese calligraphy in addition to strolling around that city in a sunny afternoon. Yes, you are paying extra for the private tour, which is worth every penny! I've always opted for quality over quantity. In summary, here is what you'll get using Lily's service: 1. A new friend to accompany you who is knowledgeable in her field 2. A customizable trip 3. Someone who genuinely cares about your total experience during the trip
