This tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Chengdu - but not just the Buddha, but the tour itself. Don't get me wrong, the Buddha is amazing, and incredibly impressive - but our day with our guide, Alvin, was really the highlight. He was incredibly smart and informative, a very safe driver, and we learned so much about the history of the area, its food, and the rest of Sichuan - things that not only made our trip to the Buddha enjoyable, but really contextualized the rest of our trip to Chengdu. Not to mention, the food was exceptional - from the best congee I've ever had, to the sliced beef soup, to the excellent Tibetan restaurant Alvin guided us to back in Chengdu. We even managed to pick up some excellent Baijiu and fresh Sichuan peppercorns both green and red at the farmer's market in the morning. I know we could have got to Leshan by train and done the Buddha ourselves, but am so glad I went with MyPanda Tours instead. Even if you do a trip with them that isn't the Giant Buddha, I can't recommend highly enough getting MyPanda tours to help you with your trip to Chengdu/Sichuan I know I will on my next trip there.
