Private Leshan Buddha: Breathtaking Giant & Sichuan Bites

it was quite busy and crowded but fortunately we were with our guide Molly who speaks English very well and she was so kind and she explained to us a lot of aspects of local Chinese culture, very interesting!! The boat tour was beautiful, Giant Buddha was Amazing!

We ended up booking with WestChinago from Tianfu airport transfer, private Giant Buddha, Wolong Panda Base, and airport transfer. This review is for airport pick up and Giant Buddha. First and foremost, Lily was AMAZING from booking to execution. Communication was clear, made great suggestions, and on time with everything (even told us the eta on her reply due to national holiday). Even including spending money economically with certain places for our itinerary. Really appreciate it. 1000% recommending this company for your Chengdu visit. You will not regret it! They’ll take care of you, and Lily certainly single handedly made my Chengdu visit so much less stress!! And oh, our drivers (both airport pick up and leshan giant Buddha) were super nice.

What an amazing tour! Everything was super well organized and I really loved every minute of it. Taking the train is definitely the way to go as we didn’t have to deal with traffic despite the fact that it was a holiday.

Brief river ride of 30mins. Only stay in front of the Buddha for 5mins or so so everyone is grappling and fighting for space to take pictures. Can get rowdy on the top open air deck. To avoid the crowd, one can also view from the lower aircon deck, where tea and food are available. The road to these jetties are very narrow, during peak jams, the wait on the coach or private cars can be really long, taxis with meters are not a good idea.

Had a great day, The Tour guide - Sharlene. was on time, in fact she arrived early, The tour was well organised, went off without a hitch. Sharlene's English was good, and has a lot of knowledge. she was able to answer any of my questions. The Buddah was magnificent, well worth seeing. Went on a weekday to avoid the tourist jam

We had an Excellent Guide and took our time climbing up to the top of the local buddha by another route than the one seen in the picture. The crowds were quite large and waiting was common for anything there. The best way to really see the buddha fully is by boat on the river. Then you can appreciate the enormity of the stature.

We spent a very good day with our guide Fifi for this tour. She was really friendly, helpfull and provided many informations on Chinese culture. Contact with Lily to prepare the tour was also perfect.

We had a great day full of new experiences!! First, we had a high speed train travel to Leshan (sooo cool). Then, the Giant Buddha took our breath (go and see it, it's a must). Taking the river cruise was the best option to see the whole Buddha. Local history and Buddhism explanations from our guide were really useful. Finally, our lovely guide showed us the best street food places to enjoy Sichuan food, which is amazing.

Thank you WestChinaGo for making our trip to Chengdu so special and memorable. As mentioned in multiple reviews, Lily is a pleasure to work with - responsive, efficient, resourceful, and extremely knowledgeable. Most importantly, Lily is a kind and wonderful person who truly cares about her clients and will go the extra step to make sure everything in your party is comfortable and all needs catered to. We took a 2 day tour that included Panda volunteering and the Leshan Giant Buddha and couldn't have asked for a better experience from beginning to end. Highly recommend!

Great experience, nice food, the guide...Flora...allowed me to do whatever I felt best for my day. Thank you!!
