Chengdu moves at its own gentle pace. Known worldwide for giant pandas, mouth-numbing Sichuan hotpot, and a teahouse culture that turns afternoon tea into an art form, this city is the perfect counterpoint to China's eastern mega-cities. It's also the gateway to Leshan, Jiuzhaigou, and some of western China's most dramatic landscapes.
A private car lets you explore Chengdu at your own pace with a local English-speaking driver.

These are the places our drivers take travelers to most.
Home to over 80 giant pandas and 100+ red pandas. The nursery with baby pandas is the highlight. Arrive before 9am to see them eating breakfast.
The heart of Chengdu's teahouse culture. Sit under bamboo, sip jasmine tea, and watch locals play mahjong, practice calligraphy, or get their ears cleaned.
A restored Qing dynasty street with traditional crafts, street food, and Sichuan opera performances. Best visited in the late afternoon when lanterns are lit.
The world's largest stone Buddha (71m tall), carved into a cliff face in the 8th century. A 2-hour drive from Chengdu, perfect as a full-day extension.
