Walk in Fairy Tales of Autumn
Located on the border of Sichuan Province, Yunnan Province and the Tibetan Autonomous Region, Daocheng and Yading enjoy the reputation of the last pure lands on this planet. September and October are the best times for a Daocheng and Yading tour.
Let's take a dreamlike journey through snowy mountains, glacier lakes, meadows and Tibetan villages.
Tour 'Wow' Points

Amazing Time in Chengdu!
![]() We had an amazing stay in Chengdu. Helen made it a point to make the most of the day we had together, given last minute flight changes. She did a great job of watching out for the seniors and the kids. She showed us the insider track in the Panda park to ensure we could avoid the crowds and enjoy our time there. She thought of all the little things, buying us snacks for the kids when we had a long bus ride, souvenirs from the opera house, making sure we were always comfortable and well cared for. She was flexible in arranging a quick hot pot dinner, when we told her we wanted to try it before we left. She had great energy, friendly smiles all the time, and so much patience. She went above and beyond when my daughter left her headphones on the bus to get the headphones shipped to our next hotel and tour guide. She was just amazing!!! We loved her! more

Fun family trip in Chengdu with our amazing guide, Helen!!!! <3
![]() Our family of 10 visited Chengdu for 1.5 days with Helen as our tour guide and had an amazing experience! Helen was the best! She was kind, patient, and super knowledgeable about the area. Her communication was very clear and she was very organized. Our kids loved the games she played with them and she was very thoughtful with my elderly parents. I would definitely recommend Helen to anyone visiting Chengdu. more
