Discover Mysterious Tibetan Area in Sichuan
Compared to western Sichuan which is already famous among Chinese adventurers and photographers, northern Sichuan is like a hidden treasure waiting for people to go and discover it. In northern Sichuan, you'll find the source of the Yellow River, the peaceful homeland of Tibetan and Qiang people, and one of the best-kept secrets that aren't even known to most Chinese people.
Let's explore this mysterious land on a 5-day Sichuan tour before it becomes part of the beaten path.

Good private tour experience
Jason was our private guide in Chengdu. As a well experienced tour guide and resident of Chengdu, he knew his way around the Panda Center. This maximized our experience there. He also gave very good food recommendations and walked us through the city’s oldest park and one of the food markets. We were able to see a lot in the short time we spent in Chengdu thanks to Jason’s knowledge of the city. more
