Our driver Huang Ling was great. She took really good care of us, helping us getting tickets and to the correct entrance for the boat and the hike to the Buddha. Huang Ling kept in touch throughout the day to make sure we were okay. Huang Ling is very kind and professional. The Buddha is incredible.

Thank you for your feedback on our work! Wishing you all the best!
The driver picked me up right on time in the hotel lobby (and brought me back just as punctually). Throughout the entire journey, he drove very calmly and safely. Upon arrival at our destination, he helped me purchase the correct ticket and escorted me to the entrance, where he subsequently waited for my return. He didn't speak a word of English, but thanks to a translation app, this wasn't a problem at all. I would recommend this excursion to anyone looking to visit the Leshan Giant Buddha in a relaxed and stress-free manner.

Thank you for reading my review! Happy birthday and happy family life!
Easy way to get to the Leshan Buddha from Chengdu. The driver, Huang, was nice and helped us buy the tickets, and we could explore it on your own, which is nice. No pressure to rush. The price is a little expensive.

Driver, Shi Jian Hua, arrived early with a smile. The vehicle was clean and equipped with air-conditioning with plenty of water if needed. He accompanied us through out the tour making sure we hit all the highlights. We never felt rushed. Shi Jian Hua was definitely a very experienced driver. We arrived there and back date and sound. Highly recommend!

Thank you for your honest evaluation. Chengdu welcomes you to come back again. We also have many beautiful scenery. Thank you!
I went alone and my guide, Mr. Shi Jian Hua, was very kind to me. Help me to get the tickets, took me to a nice meal in a local restaurant and never let me alone.
I sincerely recommend this trip.
The place is amazing!

Hello customer, it's a pleasure to serve you. Welcome back to Chengdu! thank you
We had a punctual pickup in a nice car with a smooth ride over to Leshan. Huang Lin suggested the order in which we first took the boat ride then did the climb to see the Big Buddha and it worked out very well. She helped us to buy the tickets and was very communicative when it comes to the pickup to go back to the city. Everything was effortless and the sights were quite amazing even though the feet of the Big Buddha was closed. Definitely a more comfortable and convenient method to go see Leshan. Recommend!

Hello, thank you very much for your evaluation. We will continue to work hard to provide excellent service. Thank you!
I can't speak English so I can't explore places as much as others do. My driver is good just that I couldn't communicate much.

We are so glad that you can book our tour products and recognize our service! thank you
It was a great trip! It’s about 2 hours by car from downtown Chengdu. My driver, Wu Chen, was great and helped me a lot once we got to the site (tickets, etc). It’s not too bad of a climb to the top from the main entrance. You can also opt to climb down to the feet and then climb 20 stories back up again but I chose not to do that. Overall the trip went smoothly and I would highly recommend it!
Response from Host, Oct 2020

The best thing was our driver Shi Jianhua. On time, very friendly communicative and with a lot of predisposition. He helped us and accompanied us to book the boat tickets and to access the mountain on foot. Definitely highly recommended to take care of everything.

Nuestra guía Huang Li era muy amable, nos acompañó en la visita y luego nos llevó a comer a un sitio típico. Luego cogimos barco .Muy puntual en la recogida y luego nos acercó a la estación de tren. La única pega fue que no hablaba inglés y teníamos que estar con el traductor para hablar.
