We are a group of five senior friends who traveled to Chengdu and Chongqing. Klook travel designer Charley meticulously customized our itinerary, arranging everything according to our interests and abilities, making the overall trip rich in content and comfortable. The local tour teams in both cities were also very professional. Each day, they provided advance weather reminders, allowing us to prepare appropriate attire. Both drivers had excellent driving attitudes, ensuring safety and attentiveness, providing us with several comfortable long-distance travel experiences. Thank you all! The tour guides were also professional and attentive. Nancy in Chengdu and Xiao K in Chongqing gave us in-depth introductions to the local culture, history, customs, and unique attractions of each scenic spot, giving us a vivid sense of both cities and their human history. Thank you again for your care! Overall, the Klook team was very thoughtful in all aspects. Their professional service and enthusiastic attitude brought us unforgettable and joyful experiences during our 9-day trip.

My wife and I enjoyed our 2 day tour with our tour guide Hu Jie very much. We saw a lot of Emei Mountain and Leshan Buddha. The food was good and plenty. The small group is excellent. We recommend this tour to others. Hu Jie was very kind to help us during the tour and with translation using app as we understand very little Mandarin.

Hotel pick up early in the morning 6am. drop us at common gathering location until 8am. Then, we joined a bus tour with around 30 pax. The condition of the bus is run down and way worst than public buses. Tour guide 鲜海 is ok. He did a good job to explain everything to us. but recommend him to put the meeting time and schedule in WeChat which is easier to understand. To walk around leshan Buddha is a better choice than taking a cruise. we went down to the foot and had a good view of leshan Buddha. 4 diamond hotel is good. meal arrangement is ok.

A thoroughly successful excursion that was definitely worth getting up early for. The transfer to the Grand Buddha was very relaxing due to the comfortable XXL lounge seats on the bus, allowing us to get some more sleep during the ride. After an impressive boat tour with views of the Buddha, we continued to Mount Emei. There, an excellent lunch awaited us with a variety of about 10 different dishes. The subsequent ascent by bus and cable car to the temple complex above the clouds was simply breathtaking. An unforgettable experience and a clear recommendation!

The overall experience was enjoyable. Lunch was provided and the food quality was good too. I had a good time exploring Leshan and visiting Huanglongxi, the ancient water town. I only wish we had more time to explore Huanglongxi, it has many well preserved old buildings, absoluyelu love the place.

Had a good experience touring with 小林. She was friendly, approachable, and easy to communicate with throughout the trip. The arrangements were well organized, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. She was patient and helpful whenever assistance was needed, making the journey comfortable and enjoyable. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I appreciate her efforts in ensuring the trip went well. Thank you, 小林! We reached back at Chengdu quite late like 9 plus.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A perfect day trip to Leshan! This itinerary was an excellent experience. The first stop, the Ten Thousand Buddha Cave at Dongfang Buddha Capital, was mysterious and awe-inspiring, with few people, making it great for photos. Afterward, we saw the magnificent Leshan Giant Buddha, a 71-meter-tall mountain masterpiece that truly inspires reverence. For lunch, we enjoyed authentic Leshan specialty dishes. In the afternoon, we strolled through Huanglongxi Ancient Town, nestled by mountains and water, with an antique charm and a wonderfully leisurely pace of life.

The program was really well-structured and wonderful. I was excited from the morning just at the thought of seeing pandas, and our guide told us we were lucky—we even got to see a panda named Huahua and truly so many others. The panda base is quite large and a bit tiring, but the guide took great care of us, allowing us to have a wonderful time. Above all, thanks to our passionate and kind guide, the whole day's tour was happy. You're the absolute best, guide! 👍👍👍

Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable about Buddhist history and teachings. She explained the origins, traditions, and significance of each site with great clarity, making the experience both educational and meaningful. Her passion for Buddhism was evident throughout the tour, and she patiently answered every question with impressive depth of knowledge. Thanks to her engaging storytelling, we gained a much deeper appreciation of Buddhist culture and history. Highly recommended!

What to know before visiting Leshan

Quick snapshot of Leshan and what draws visitors

Leshan is best known for outdoor sights, day tours and green parks, and Klook booking patterns show clear highs and lows through the year. Tours, parks & gardens and a small number of museum experiences top the list of things travellers book here, and demand fluctuates noticeably between the quiet and busy months.

Best times to visit and how prices move

Demand peaks in December and dips sharply in August, according to Klook booking data; the months around September and October also see below-average demand. Prices follow their own path: Klook data shows the priciest month around September while March tends to be the cheapest on past bookings. If you prefer lower prices and fewer crowds, March and the late-summer trough months are a good bet; if you want the liveliest atmosphere, plan for December when demand is highest. Note that price and demand diverge at times — for example September has higher prices even though demand is not at its peak.

Tips for travellers

Most travellers book activities for Leshan about two weeks ahead on Klook, with some locking in plans earlier; that makes the destination suitable for short planning windows but still worth booking before peak-season spikes. For quieter, budget-friendly visits, consider dates in March or the late-summer trough; for festive energy, aim for December and secure key tours in advance on Klook.
