Jerry was an amazing tour guide and teacher. I was taken on scooter (which was amazing) to the old town where the tea shop was. I walked around the farmers market and then we learned to play mahjong! Jerry was really patient as I had to take notes and photos. It turns out that I am a quick learner and we we able to get to higher level lessons. Jerry worked on cruise ships so is very good personality and speaks English very well. Do this! There is also a cooking class at the same place, I wish I had time to do that one too!

Really good tour. Went to a local wet market, tour of the local area and then on to play mahjong. Our guide, Lance was amazing. Easy to talk with and helped to play mahjong. We shared some fruit and nuts that he purchased for us at the market and some green tea. Would highly recommend the tour as a lovey way to see how the locals live and their love of games.

We were accompanied by Jerry .. an amazing guide!!! Who speaks very good English and is adorable 🥰 He is full of advice and listening to us. The walk in the local market is to be done, places we would not have found alone.. and the introduction to the very nice Mahjong, with locals who help you to play... A superb activity to do!!!

We had a wonderful experience with our guide checking out a local market and then learning to play mahjong. The guide was friendly and personable and was eager to show us his neighbourhood and patient with his teaching. It was also great to be in a less touristed area and see a different side of Chengdu.

I recommend this tour to anyone. Lance showed me around the local market, provided very tasty tea and taught me all I needed to know about Mahjong. I was solo so there was only the two of us and normally you need 4 people to play Mahjong, but the owners of the establishment (that also show you how to cook during Chilli Cool cooking class) joined us and we played a couple of rounds together. I would gladly revisit this experience and everyone visiting Chengdu and willing to play some Mahjong should as well. :)

We had a very good time with our guide Lance. We met at the metro station and then walked through a market before arriving to Chilli Cool China's facilities. Lance explained the mahjong rules (we didn't know anything before this class) and we did some trial runs before fully playing. The afternoon went by very smoothly playing mahjong, drinking tea, eating the peanuts and fruits bought at the market and chatting. We very much enjoyed this moment which indeed felt like spending an afternoon with a friend, at the chill Chengdu's pace!
