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
