Just to begin with, we were so lucky to find Victor at Real China Travel! I always do a lot of research before our travels and once again, it was worth it. We have contacted Victor way ahead to plan for us 8 day trip around Sichuan Province with our two kids (14 and 12yo). He suggested the itinerary and we have visited the following sites: Mount Emei, Leshan Giant Buddha, Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, Mount Qingcheng, Dujiangyan Irrigation System and Dujiangyan Panda Base. Victor accompanied us the entire time, doing the driving and travel guiding. He was so knowledgeable about everything, it really blew our minds away. We loved to spend the time with him, getting to know all details about the history, culture, sports, food, etc. As not many local people speak English, Victor was our connection to the exciting place and we could not imagine not having him around. After a long day, he always took us for some special culinary treat. He was just a perfect guide and we could not thank him enough! We had an amazing time. Next time, for sure we will go with Real China Travel again.

Sophia was a delight. She was an excellent guide in trying to make the day not only Informative but also fun. She and the driver, Mr. Wu, took very good care of me through a very long (because of traffic) day. I would highly recommend this tour to get the very best of Chengdu if you only have a day to spend in the city.

Everything started good, our guide Vivian was kind and very helpful. But after the visit to the Panda Breeding Center she told us that the agency couldn’t buy our tickets for the Buddha because we didn’t t have a Chinese ID and in the ticket office they were already sold out. So we didn’t see the Leshan Buddha and they only refund the amount of the ticket for the Buddha (70RMB) and got a visit to Jinlin street. I think the agency should know and be prepared for these kind of things. We only had one complete day in Chengdu and we couldn’t see the Buddha, which was one of our priorities in the trip. We are very disappointed.

I never actually got to take this holiday because of the Coronavirus Pandemic. However, I would like to say that once the tour was cancelled and I asked for a refund of my deposit the matter was handled quickly and efficiently by Lorraine Bowman, the Customer Care Manager, who oversaw the return of the deposit to my bank account in less than a week. This will certainly encourage me to use them again for any future trips.

Worley was a great guide who took us to at least four major tourist attractions in Chengdu in four hours from pickup to our hotel at the W and back. She is very knowledgeable including history of religions, architecture, and is a big panda fan. The tour was not the typical bike ride we are used to where we stayed on bikes the majority of the time. We took the metro and walked around the places we visited on this tour and probably traveled on bike for about 10 km. It was a wonderful introduction of the city that allowed us to see Wenshu Monastery, Kuanzhai Alley, People’s Park, and Qingyang Palace. We were pressed on time otherwise Worley would’ve spent more time in the locations. Thank you, Worley, for the great tour!

Odynovo is amazing! This was my 3rd trip with Odynovo (also went to Egypt & Dubai with them). We spent a couple days in Chengdu with Pandas (adorable!), drinking tea and learning Mahjong (with the help of some locals!), doing a cooking class and trying to learn calligraphy (loved the students who gave helpful tips). We also added in a Sichuan Opera show and a stop at the Sanxingdui relics. I highly recommend my travel consultant Gina with Odynovo. She was able to plan the perfect trip for my family. I like to pack in as much as possible and she lived up to every expectation! She picked out The Temple House for our stay and it’s the best hotel we have ever stayed in! Odynovo truly listens to it’s travelers and customizes the perfect trip! Drivers and tour guides are always the BEST and always on time, friendly and ready to share their knowledge. We loved every moment!
