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.
We are so grateful to Director Hu for leading us on this wonderful journey to the Leshan Giant Buddha and Mount Emei! The Leshan Giant Buddha was incredibly magnificent in the morning, leaving us in awe of the ancient people's wisdom, creativity, and ingenious craftsmanship. In the afternoon, Mount Emei's summit was enveloped in wind, snow, and mist. One moment, heavy snow was falling; the next, it was shrouded in clouds, only to have the clouds part and reveal the sun moments later. This unique weather phenomenon added even more spiritual beauty and awe to Mount Emei. Thank you, Director Hu, for your steady arrangements and patient explanations throughout the trip, which allowed us to comfortably enjoy the beautiful scenery. The entire experience was pleasant and unforgettable. You worked hard!
The one-day tour of Emei Mountain and Leshan was arranged so reasonably! Departing from Chengdu in the morning, we first went to Leshan to see the Giant Buddha. The route within the scenic area was well-planned, so you don't have to backtrack too much. Following the plank road down, you can appreciate the Buddha's magnificence up close. The Giant Buddha is 71 meters high and carved into the mountain, making you admire the wisdom and craftsmanship of the ancients. In the afternoon, we went to Mount Emei, taking a sightseeing bus and cable car up the mountain, which saved a lot of energy. After reaching the Golden Summit, seeing the golden and magnificent Samantabhadra statue, I instantly felt my soul purified. The view from the Golden Summit is very broad, overlooking the mountains, and if you are lucky, you can see the sea of clouds, which is so beautiful. The tour guide's explanation throughout the tour was detailed. They introduced us to the history and culture of the Giant Buddha and Mount Emei, allowing us to have a deeper understanding of the attractions. Transportation was very convenient, and the round trip to Chengdu wasn't too long. There was no forced consumption, and the price-performance ratio was very high. Highly recommended!
Emei Mountain and Leshan Giant Buddha One-Day Tour: Efficiently check in at two major scenic spots and have a great experience! Depart from Chengdu at 7:00 AM, and after about a two-hour drive, arrive at the Leshan Giant Buddha. The tour guide has already purchased the tickets in advance, so there's no need to queue; directly enter the scenic area. Slowly walk down the plank road and experience the magnificence of the Giant Buddha up close. The river is surging, and the Giant Buddha is built against the mountain, with a majestic momentum. The tour guide's explanation is very detailed, allowing me to understand the history and construction process of the Giant Buddha. It takes about 20 minutes to walk the plank road without rushing. At noon, taste the local specialty, "Qiaojiao Beef," which is delicious and plentiful. In the afternoon, head to Emei Mountain and take a sightseeing bus and cable car directly to the Golden Summit. The scenery along the way is beautiful, with lush vegetation and fresh air. Upon reaching the Golden Summit, clouds and mist swirl around, and the Samantabhadra statue is solemn and respectful, inspiring awe. Enjoy the beautiful scenery at the Golden Summit, take many photos, and start the return journey around 4:00 PM, arriving back in Chengdu around 7:00 PM. The entire itinerary is compact but not rushed. The tour guide is professional, and the driver drives smoothly. It's really worth it to check in at two major attractions in one day!
The two-day tour of Mount Emei and Leshan was so enjoyable! On the first day, we went straight to Mount Emei, enjoying the beautiful scenery of Qingyin Pavilion and One-Line-Sky along the way. The monkeys were very lively. We stayed on the mountain overnight, and the next morning, we got up early to climb to the Golden Summit to watch the sunrise and the sea of clouds, which were truly stunning. In the afternoon, we went to the Leshan Giant Buddha to experience the grandeur of the Buddha up close. The whole trip was relaxing and unhurried, making for a fantastic experience!
The itinerary will confirm the pickup time, online insurance, and fee explanation and contract signing the day before. Tour guide Li provided very detailed explanations. If you have time, it's better to split the two activities over multiple days. If not, this itinerary is a good option, though it's very packed. There are no shopping stops, and the food is good. Before leaving, we were even treated to a bowl of tofu pudding to settle our stomachs on the way back to Chengdu. The cost does not include some entrance fees and transportation. An additional 265 RMB is paid to the guide. The itinerary also does not include return transportation to the hotel; if desired, an extra 10 RMB can be added (limited to within the Third Ring Road). Additionally, it is recommended that participants understand Chinese, as most signs and explanations in the scenic areas are in Chinese, and the contract is also in Chinese.
We had a great experience with our guide, Yuan Juan. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and very organised, making the trip smooth and enjoyable for everyone. There were no shopping stops, so we could fully focus on sightseeing and enjoying the beautiful scenery. She also shared interesting history and stories about both sites and helped everyone take nice photos. As it is a long travel journey, I would recommend upgrading to the first-class bus for a more comfortable ride. Having a WeChat account is also helpful for easier communication with the local guide and pick-up driver. The weather at Mt Emei can be unpredictable, so it is best to go well prepared.
The one-day tour of Mount Emei and Leshan is a perfect combination of culture and nature! The Leshan Giant Buddha has a profound historical and cultural background, the natural scenery of Mount Emei is beautiful, and the Buddhist atmosphere of the Golden Summit is strong. The whole guided tour service is considerate and will remind you of precautions, such as the monkeys on Mount Emei being mischievous, so please take good care of your personal belongings. The transportation is convenient, there is no shopping throughout the tour, and it's awesome!
