Chengdu Meerdaagse tours

This is our second time choosing Klook's custom tours, and this time we booked a fully customized 6-day trip around Chengdu. The recommended destinations and hotels were completely tailored to our requests. To avoid the biggest crowds during the National Day holiday, we chose Qionglai, a small city west of Chengdu, along with the must-see Dujiangyan Irrigation System and Mount Qingcheng. The overall itinerary was reasonably planned, and whenever we needed temporary adjustments during the trip, Ling'er's team in charge of the itinerary responded very promptly, making our travel experience exceptionally good. Driver Xia Heqian provided full chauffeured service throughout these six days. Driver Xia was extremely punctual and enthusiastic, the vehicle was clean and comfortable with a smooth ride, and he helped us optimize our sightseeing routes for high efficiency, avoiding traffic jams and crowds. He also took us to try very authentic and delicious local specialties, maximizing our travel experience.

This was an amazing 3-day, 2-night trip to Huanglong and Jiuzhaigou! The scenery was simply lovely. Mountains, turquoise lakes, streams and waterfalls galore! All in a pristine environment. Crowd control at both locations was excellent although it was peak season in autumn. There was ample time to enjoy both attractions. The Jiuzhaigou Romance show (optional) is highly recommended too! I enjoyed it. Our tour guide Ah Qiu was cheerful, very efficient and responsible, with clear instructions provided. On the bus, she took time to talk about many things in the region, including facts about Chinese herbs. Good job, thank you Ah Qiu for taking care of all of us! Kudos to the bus captain too for a safe and comfortable journey.

We hadden een groepsreis geboekt met kinderen, en voor vertrek waren we het meest bezorgd over de hogesnelheidstreinkaartjes en de aansluiting bij de attracties, maar alles verliep vlekkeloos. Op de dag van Jiuzhaigou waren we van 's ochtends tot 's middags, precies 6 uur, in het park. De gids had van tevoren een route voor ons gepland, waarbij we eerst Changhai en Wuhuahai bezochten om de drukte tijdens de lunch te vermijden. De kinderen riepen constant 'wauw' vanwege het blauwe water. De dag in Huanglong was nog attenter; de gids adviseerde ons om met de kabelbaan omhoog te gaan en naar beneden te lopen. De Vijfkleurenvijver was helemaal gevuld en glinsterde in het zonlicht. De volgende middag namen we de hogesnelheidstrein terug naar Chengdu en waren nog voor acht uur thuis. De hele reis bevatte geen winkelstops, en de gids gaf in de bus uitleg over het landschap en de cultuur.

Overall, the experience of this 3-day high-speed rail tour to Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong exceeded expectations. Visiting in early November, we just caught the tail end of the colorful autumn forests. The travertine pools of Huanglong matched with the colorful distant mountains, and the various lakes in Jiuzhaigou featured exceptionally rich color layers, without the oppressive crowdedness of the peak season. Taking the high-speed rail from Chengdu took about two hours, sparing us the misery of getting carsick from a long bus ride, which was a big plus for me. We stayed at a 4-star hotel near the gully entrance, which was clean, warm, with stable hot water, and we rested well at night. The complimentary Tibetan earthen hot pot dinner had a lively atmosphere, allowing us to briefly experience local customs. The itinerary pace was reasonably arranged, avoiding the need to wake up frantically early to rush on the road in the morning. The tour guide provided detailed explanations and reminded us to keep warm at high altitudes, walk slowly, and avoid running. One small reminder: Huanglong has a high altitude, so you must walk slowly, carry an oxygen canister with you, and be sure to prepare a windproof jacket.

picked up and dropped off in our hotel. Xiao Chen our guide was very kind and gave us great tips for our sightseeing adventures. Bipenggou and Mount Sigunuang was so worth it! Very recommended when you go to Sichuan! We were still able to rest well at the included hotel. Great Sichuan food too!

it was a wonderful trip, the schedule was well planned and comfort. Super satisfied with the driver, he was very helful 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

My biggest concern was altitude sickness, but the entire trip went well, and I didn't feel anything. This might be because we had oxygen tanks, and for higher altitudes, the travel agency arranged oxygen rooms, which was a really great touch! Itinerary: On the day we explored Daocheng Yading, it's essential to bring an oxygen tank. You'll definitely feel a difference in your heart and lungs, and the climb can still be a bit challenging; however, I thought the scenery was decent. The night sky was truly beautiful, and you could see the stars clearly with the naked eye, no telescope needed. Personally, I prefer Mount Siguniang over Daocheng Yading; the scenery at Mount Siguniang is lusher and more diverse! Driver: The driver was excellent, drove steadily, and had a mild temperament. He was punctual every day and shared interesting local customs and stories with us along the way.

Before the trip, I was most worried about altitude sickness in western Sichuan, as I had never been to a high-altitude area before, so I was quite anxious. Fortunately, the two nights were arranged at lower elevations rather than staying directly near the glacier, so we rested pretty well. Oxygen tanks and similar supplies were adequately provided in the vehicle. There were 5 of us in a 7-seater vehicle, which was quite comfortable. We took turns sitting in the front passenger seat, and everyone in the group was very easygoing. The itinerary was purely for sightseeing with no shopping and no hidden store visits. We communicated clearly with customer service before booking, and the actual trip was almost identical to what they described. They can be considered trustworthy.

We hebben voor het eerst een groepsreis naar China gemaakt als buitenlanders. Hoewel er taalbarrières waren, hebben we dankzij de vriendelijkheid van de gids en de chauffeur een plezierige reis gehad. Het landschap was ook prachtig. Het enige minpuntje was dat de reistijd lang was, waardoor de maaltijden niet overeenkwamen met de lunch- of dinertijden, wat leidde tot ongemakken zoals heel laat eten, soms pas rond 22.00 uur. De volgende keer zou het fijn zijn als er meer flexibiliteit zou zijn om onderweg een restaurant te regelen als de maaltijden door het schema erg laat worden. Dankzij de joviale chauffeur konden we de lange reis met plezier voltooien.
