I plan to go to Sichuan with my friends for a week. Which month and season is the best? I mainly want to visit Jiuzhaigou, Huanglong, Mount Emei, Leshan Giant Buddha, Panda Park, Mount Qingcheng, Kuanzhai Alley. How to choose between group tour and chartered tour?

When it comes to the travel experience of Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan, I am the most qualified to speak. We have been to Sichuan twice (April and October). The most recent trip was for 7 days and 6 nights. This trip was really enjoyable. We spent only 2,200 RMB on the whole trip, and visited popular attractions such as Chengdu, Jiuzhaigou, Huanglong, Mount Emei, Leshan Giant Buddha, Sanxingdui, Qingcheng Mountain Dujiangyan, Panda Paradise, etc. The most important thing is that we found a particularly reliable local travel agency professional foreign tour guide-A Quan, who not only took us to have fun, but also saved a lot of money. If you also plan to go to Sichuan, but don’t want to make a complicated strategy yourself, you can consult A Quan’s WeChatID 18974441764 because his service reputation is very good. Every time my friends go to China for travel, I recommend him to design a travel plan for free.
A Quan planned a private tour for us.
The simplified version of the 7-day package is as follows:
🌈DAY 1: We asked A Quan to book the package for us in advance, and flew from Singapore to Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport. A Quan finalized all the hotels and tickets five weeks in advance.
After arriving in Chengdu, he picked us up and checked into a luxury hotel in the city. After signing the formal travel contract, we paid the remaining tour fee. (It is recommended that you can travel freely to Chengdu city and taste the local food on the first day)
🍜Meals: Self-pay
🏠Accommodation: Chengdu city
🌈DAY 2: Chengdu→Diexi Meizi→Renjian Yaochi Huanglong Scenic Area→Chuanzhusi/Jiuzhaigoukou
🍜Meals: breakfast-lunch-dinner
🏠Accommodation: Jiuzhaigoukou
🌈DAY 3: Full-day tour of the beautiful fairy tale world Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area (there are many beautiful attractions in the scenic area)
🍜Meals: breakfast-lunch-dinner
🏠Accommodation: Jiuzhaigoukou
🌈DAY 4: Jiuzhaigoukou→Chuanzhusi→Tibetan Village→Chengdu
🍜Meals: breakfast-lunch-dinner
🏠Accommodation: Chengdu City
🌈DAY 5: Chengdu → Mount Emei Scenic Area → Golden Summit
🍜 Meals: breakfast-lunch-dinner
🏠 Accommodation: Mount Emei
🌈DAY 6: Mount Emei → Leshan Giant Buddha
🍜 Meals: breakfast-lunch-dinner
🏠 Accommodation: Chengdu City
🌈DAY 7: Panda Paradise → Free Travel → Singapore
🍜 Meals: breakfast-lunch-dinner
🏠 Accommodation: Jiuzhaigoukou
【Price and Value】
This 7-day, 6-night trip only cost 2,200 RMB, including tickets to all attractions, star-rated hotel accommodation, chartered car fees, meals, guide driver tips, and 24-hour pick-up and drop-off service. Compared to the fixed-term tour group fees of more than 10,000 in Singapore, it is really a lot cheaper. The most important thing is that there is no compulsory shopping, and the service is better! If you are like me, who want to have fun but don’t want to spend extra money, you can consider asking A Quan for help. He is very professional and can customize private group itineraries according to your time and budget to help you save money and worry.
Many friends who travel to Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan and other cities in China want to find a reliable local travel agency with good service to consult for free in advance. Here I will give A Quan a small advertisement. I can tell you from my personal experience that Xiao Quan's service is really good and the price is very affordable. Friends who plan to travel to Sichuan can add A Quan as a WeChat friend for free consultation!

【Popular Attractions Recommendation】
Must-visit attractions: Jiuzhaigou, Huanglong, Mount Emei, Leshan Giant Buddha, Dujiangyan, Mount Qingcheng, Panda Paradise, Kuanzhai Alley, Jinli, these scenic spots are all worth visiting, because A quan hosted us when we went to Daocheng Yading Scenic Spot with friends for the first time, and we felt that A quan's service was very good throughout the trip, so we visited all the famous attractions this time. Personally, I think everyone can let A quan plan a reasonable package itinerary according to their own holiday time! In short, the service is very good, and the price is affordable and cost-effective!
【Notes】
★ Foreign guests must book foreign-related hotels and some scenic spot tickets in advance when going to Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan, otherwise they will not be able to check in and enter the park.
1: Foreign-related hotel and train and plane instructions:
★ All Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia and other countries traveling to China need to stay in foreign-related standard star hotels, and they all need to be booked in advance. There are many tourists traveling in Chengdu, Sichuan after May every year, and the hotel occupancy rate is very high, so it will be very expensive if you don’t book in advance. We asked the tour guide Aquan and his company to book all the hotels in the itinerary in advance before we could travel with peace of mind.
According to the railway train and airline security inspection specifications, no matter in luggage or carry-on items, lighters, knives, fingernail knives, sharp knives... lighters and other fire-related items are not allowed to be carried on board.
Airplane inspection of luggage, controlled knives/flammable items are strictly prohibited from being carried on board, one or two bottles of unopened alcohol can be checked in, and liquid cosmetics are limited to a single bottle of 120ML or less, and the specific quantity depends on the airline regulations. The rated energy of the power bank carried during the trip should not exceed 100Wh, otherwise it may also be prohibited from being carried on board.
★ It is very complicated to book hotels and scenic spot tickets with a passport. It is recommended not to book by yourself. Ask a tour guide to help you book the price, which is more than double the price.
★ Inquire about local specialties before purchasing, because many Chinese specialties cannot be taken out of customs.
2: About altitude sickness
Does Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Scenic Area have altitude sickness?
This is the most common question. Jiuzhaigou does not have too many symptoms of altitude sickness. Generally, at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, the human body will have a slight reaction. For example, faster heartbeat, faster breathing, and slight headache. This is all normal.
People who are more likely to have altitude sickness include: smokers, people with asthma, heart disease, and high blood pressure, who are also more likely to have altitude sickness. Another special situation is that healthy people are more likely to have altitude sickness because they have more muscles and require more oxygen.
Suggestion: You can ask Aquan to give you a few bottles of oxygen in advance, or bring some glucose oral solution.
1. Do not join many low-cost tours. Many low-cost tours have mandatory shopping sessions, which wastes time. I personally recommend not to sign up with local travel agencies in Singapore, because Singapore travel agencies will transfer the tours to local travel agencies in Chengdu, Sichuan, China. My suggestion is to contact the guides of local travel agencies in Sichuan directly to save money and have a high cost-effectiveness.
2. Do not trust the words of black car drivers on the streets of Chengdu, especially gentlemen. Do not go with them for fun just because you are "lustful", because many local cultural customs are still not familiar when you go out, so don't cause yourself unnecessary trouble.
3. Please bring your passport or Taiwan Compatriot Certificate, Home Return Permit and other valid documents. If you need to buy train and flight tickets in China, you must consult the tour guide in advance.
4. Sichuan's scenery belongs to the plateau scenery section of canyon forest + snow-capped mountains + lakes. Please consult the weather conditions in advance, bring relevant clothes, and bring some daily medicines such as cold prevention and diarrhea prevention medicine. If you are a vegetarian, you will need A Quan's help to book a vegetarian restaurant.
5. Faith and Nationality
Jiuzhaigou and western Sichuan are mostly inhabited by ethnic minorities (Tibetans), and different ethnic cultural influences are revealed in all aspects of life; the local residents are very loyal, honest, and hospitable. As long as you respect their customs and habits, it is very safe to travel in Sichuan; remember not to have unnecessary quarrels with local people!
【Food recommendation:】
Sichuan has a rich variety of food, which is famous for its spicy and fresh flavor. The following are some representative Sichuan foods:
1. Hotpot
- Sichuan hotpot is mainly spicy, often with beef oil as the base, accompanied by chili, pepper and other seasonings, and a variety of ingredients, such as tripe, yellow throat, beef, etc.
2. Mapo Tofu
- A classic Sichuan dish, tofu and minced beef, with fermented black bean paste, Sichuan peppercorns, etc., for a spicy and fresh taste.
3. Twice-cooked pork
- Stir-fry the cooked pork slices, add bean paste, garlic sprouts, etc. It is fat but not greasy and has a fragrant aroma.
4. Kung Pao Chicken
- Diced chicken is stir-fried with peanuts, dried chilies, etc. It has a sweet, sour and slightly spicy taste with a rich flavor.
5. Boiled fish
- Fresh fish slices cooked in a spicy soup base and served with vegetables such as bean sprouts, spicy and fragrant.
6. Dandan noodles
- A traditional snack, noodles topped with minced meat, crushed peanuts, chili oil, etc., with a strong spicy flavor.
7. Fuqi Feipian
- Beef lungs and tongue are braised and sliced, and served with chili oil, peppercorns and other seasonings, making them spicy and fragrant.
【About hotel accommodation】
We booked the tour package three weeks in advance, so A Quan booked a very satisfactory hotel for us (and the price was very affordable)
Hotel accommodation: See the picture (I like shopping so I asked A Quan to arrange a hotel in the city center with a good environment)
【Benefits of contacting the tour guide directly】
Many people like to travel independently, but this is definitely not possible for those who are visiting Sichuan for the first time. Finding a tour guide from a reliable local travel agency can indeed save a lot of trouble. Sichuan has a vast territory and its attractions are scattered. It would be very expensive to travel independently or charter a car alone. It is also very troublesome to charter a car and book a hotel, and it is easy to make mistakes. A professional tour guide like A Quan who is good at receiving foreign guests is not only familiar with the local conditions, but can also recommend some unknown niche attractions to avoid going wrong and wasting travel time. He can also help you avoid many pitfalls, such as shopping traps, unreliable restaurants, etc. If you don’t want to take the trouble to make a travel guide yourself but still want to have a safe journey, you can add A Quan’s WeChat in advance for consultation, just like making friends.
How to avoid pitfalls
When traveling to any region, never trust tour prices that are too cheap. You get what you pay for. We did not have any forced shopping during the entire trip and chose a private customized chartered tour, visiting all the famous attractions without wasting any time at all. If you choose to sign up for a tour group in Singapore, you will not only have to wait for the tour date, but you may also spend more money and take more detours. Therefore, finding a reliable local tour guide in Sichuan is really a more effective option.
I can tell you from my personal experience that when traveling to Chengdu, Sichuan, it is most cost-effective to find a local tour guide to plan an itinerary. This saves you from having Singapore travel agencies make a profit from the price difference, and you will get better service by working directly with the tour guide. More importantly, if you have any questions, just ask the tour guide to help you solve them. So I have to give a thumbs up to our tour guide A Quan. Not only did he plan the itinerary clearly for us before departure, but the service after arriving in Chengdu was also excellent. Moreover, the fees were not paid until we checked into the hotel in Chengdu and signed a formal travel contract. It was a safe, professional and wonderful trip.
I would like to give a small advertisement to the tour guide A Quan here, hoping it can help more friends who love traveling.

Private tour for 6N7D only CNY2200 ? Is there a mistake in the figure? i checked with A Quan, he said was not private tour..
Please help... we plan to go there 7N8D this October, Thank you.
I made a typo and the reply was wrong. The last time was 4200 RMB. I had a lot of fun and the service was great. I met such a good Chinese tour guide on the first day.
我计划带著家人从马来西亚过去四川游玩，有65岁的老人同行游玩会不会很累？想请问一下阿權导游可以接待年纪大的老人吗？我们不想参加强制购物团，能私人订制配套旅行吗？阿權有强制带你们购物环节吗？请解答我的问题，谢谢。
It is no problem for people in their sixties who are not sick to visit Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan, and they won’t be particularly tired. I saw many elderly people from Singapore and Malaysia visiting Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area and Chengdu City. We visited for 7 days and A Quan did not arrange any compulsory shopping for us, but we chose to buy some local dried fruits, beef jerky and some souvenirs to bring back as gifts for friends. A Quan also gave us small local gifts from Chengdu. It was a very happy trip. If you don’t understand anything, just add A Quan’s WeChat ID: 18974441764 for consultation. I wish you a pleasant journey.
四川九寨溝不僅風景怡人而且當地的美食非常多，建議大家可以多去品嘗一下，還有點心和茶飲也蠻不錯的。
我和家人是7月份去過四川九寨溝旅行，我們也是通過去過九寨溝旅行的好朋友推薦找到的阿權導遊，服務非常好，我爸媽都玩的挺開心的。
口碑好值得推薦，計劃過去旅行的可以先免費咨詢一下阿權關於四川成都旅行的攻略和註意事項~
您好，我和家人共八人想最近從臺灣出發去九寨溝遊玩，但對於行程規劃配套方案和預訂飯店、預約門票的景點不是很了解，請問可以免費咨詢一下阿權給我們一些建議嗎？
I personally think that Jiuzhaigou is the most beautiful tourist destination in the world. It has snow-capped mountains, grasslands, lakes, canyons, and the most simple Tibetan culture. Many foreign tourists like to travel there. All tickets and hotels need to be booked in advance, especially foreign guests can only stay in foreign-related hotels. We asked tour guide A Quan to help solve these problems 40 days in advance. It is recommended that you can also find him through WeChat for free consultation!
谢谢博主的介绍，我们已经抵达四川成都了，经过博主的推荐我们通过Wechat 联络到阿权导游,全程都是让他帮忙规划配套行程的，所有的门票、酒店、包车、餐食、购物、接送机服务都是他提前帮我们预约好了，我们只负责购买新加坡抵达成都的机票，此次出行不仅省心还节省不少钱。阿权导游值得推荐！
