Easy to redeem the ferry ticket at tourist center (near entrance). The queue for the ferry will take sometime as queue number will be given to board the ferry by batches. Manage to see the majestic Giant Buddha board ferry :)

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!

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.

experience: the shuttle bus is very shaky as the mountain road is far . so just take note if you want to take shuttle bus. from bottom to top take about 2 hours by bus.

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 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.

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

A quick intro to Leshan’s visitor rhythm

Leshan draws most bookings for Tours, Parks & gardens, and a small share of museum visits, with demand peaking in early summer and dipping in late winter. Activity on Klook shows a strong spike in June while February is consistently much quieter, so the year has a clear high and low season.

When to visit and what to expect on price

Klook booking data shows the busiest month is June and the quietest month is February. Prices drift through the year: they rise into late summer and reach their highest in September, then fall sharply into the new year, with February typically the lowest-priced month on Klook. For lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for February or the early months of the year; if you want peak-season atmosphere and the most activity, visit in June. Note that demand peaks in June while prices peak somewhat later in September, so crowds and cost don’t move in perfect sync.

Tips for travellers from the United States

Most visitors from the United States tend to book about 12 days ahead, so plan key Tours and Parks reservations at least a week or two before travel, especially for June. Many experiences still allow last-minute booking (as late as a couple of days out), so shorter trips can stay flexible, but pre-booking on Klook helps lock in availability and typical prices during busy months.
