Privat dagstur till Leshan Grand Buddha från Chengdu

Samuel, the tour company manager, helped me and my son arrange a wonderful trip, and Junie, the tour guide, made sure both of us enjoyed ourselves and learned everything there is to learn about the Leshan budda. Although I have been on this tour once before, she still told me many new interesting facts that I had not learned already. Then she took us to a local restaurant which truly had unique offerings and we ate a delicious meal. I definitely recommend this company.

This was an absolutely wonderful tour. My guide Worli was lovely. Very well informed. Spoke great english and was very accommodating to all my requests. What I loved about this tour was everything was included and more. Worli had so much knowledge on not only Leshan Buddha but all topics relating to Chinese culture. We also enjoyed a great lunch, where Worli helped me choose the best vegetarian dished one can find in China! highly recommend this tour and all other tours by this company,

<p>Martin is great! And he is very knowledgeable about each sight we have visited . I highly recommend him to anyone and wish him the best in this business. A reall professional!</p>

<p>It's a long ride from Chengdu, but it is absolutely amazing!</p>

<p>This tour was great! The guide (Mars) was very informative and helpful. She was also really personable--it felt like I was hanging out with a friend. The driver was extremely professional as well. Highly recommended!</p>

<p>Amazing journey. The Leshan Giant Buddha is absolutely stunning. One of the most amazing thing I've ever seen. Our guide, Audrey, was extremely charming and professional, giving us great information about this gigantic piece of art.</p>

<p>Some other reviews suggest that the boat is the best way to see the Buddha but I have to say that nothing can compare with the close-up experience of climbing down and then up the steps alongside the statue. It is good to get there as early as possible and also to avoid peak season. We were able to proceed straight to the steps.<br/> Local lunch was enjoyable and chopsticks are not so difficult to use!<br/> For me the two-hour journey from the city was also most interesting as it gave an overview of the villages, countryside and agriculture, all such a contrast to the city itself. It was just as much part of the experience and not simply a means to get there. <br/> The guide, as with all Viator guides that I have met, was most informative.</p>

<p>Our guide was willing to tailor the trip to our wishes. She was informed and very pleasant her English was excellent</p>

<p>Great day out. Its still hard to grasp the scale after seeing it. Great food included too</p>

<p>Firstly our guide 'Coral' was excellent, very friendly, spoke good English and the driver was first class especially with the traffic and 'non existent rules of the road it would appear'. The journey to Lesham takes about 2 hours and Coral gave us an excellent commentary during this journey. Unfortunately the weather was dreadful, luckily had umbrella with us. On arrival the crowds were everywhere, good job did not arrive in height of season. Throughout the visit to the Buddha, Coral gave a good history and explanation and we had a laugh. The wait to walk down the Buddha and up again was around 2 hours so we declined due to the weather conditions but Coral made up for this with her commentary. The lunch was superb. One observation perhaps to improve this visit is to climb up and be given the commentary and visit the temples then proceed to the 'boat option' rather than waiting up to 2 hours to fully view the statue then followed by the lunch, that way everybody would see everything. The return journey to the hotel took again another 2 hours so a very full day.</p>
