Good trip to see more of the Chengdu mountains
Our driver and guide Xie Zhiyou, was absolutely fantastic and helped us every step of the way. It was a great experience and the locations are beautiful. The prices of the places we went too were reasonable as well. The whole trip took around 9 hours. It was not too crowded for a weekend but it was raining. This is good for people who enjoy to hike as a lot of it is uphill.

Nice little panda resort and well-organized trip
Our driver Jiang Xiao Dong was great. He helped us everywhere to organize the tickets and was always reachable via WeChat. We were able to explore everything ourselves in peace and without time pressure. The car was very comfortable and well-maintained.
This is not the large, well-known Chengdu Panda Research Base, but rather a somewhat smaller facility. However, it is less crowded, so we had only short wait times and overall it was well-attended, but not overcrowded. We also saw pandas.
At the mountain, we would have had to wait 1 hour for the cable car, which is why we decided against it and walked up the stairs. Therefore, we only made it to the mountain station of the cable car (after that we were exhausted) and not all the way to the top. My tip would therefore be to perhaps wait for the cable car after all.

Crowded in summer but good combo tour!
Visiting the (red) pandas at Dujiangyan Panda Valley (Panda basis was closed due to maintenance) was an unforgettable experience. Seeing them up close in such a lush, beautiful environment was a major highlight.
Our driver was incredibly helpful, friendly, and made the entire day smooth and stress-free. I would definitely recommend booking this tour!
Be mindful of the large crowds during the peak summer season. Start at 7 from Chengdu, like we did, and the pandas were already asleep!
If you are visiting in July or August, I would caution against adding Mount Qingcheng to your day. The wait times for the cable car can be extreme due to the heavy foot traffic, which can make the afternoon feel rushed and tiring. If you go during this time, go to the mountain first and later to Panda Valley which might offer a much more relaxed experience. Overall, a fantastic tour!
