Highly recommended
Overall an excellent tour! Our guide David was patient and detailed in explaining the amazing history behind duijianyan and its strategic importance to Chengdu. The nature walk Mount Qingcheng was equally fun. Along the way, we learnt a lot about the local “Dao” customs from David (thank you for being so helpful and entertaining). The car ride from Chengdu was around an hour and relaxing enough. Highly recommend this excursion, esp with a tour guide to explain the rich history behind it all.

Great scenery and mountain speedrun
Last week we visited the Irrigation System and Mt. Qingcheng. Our driver picked us up at our hotel, had already prepared some bottled water and drove us to the irrigation first. Afterwards we had some great noodle soup with our driver and he answered all our questions. In the afternoon we went to the mountain which provided us again with some beautiful scenery.
Some important notes:
We thought the entrance tickets to the Irrigation System were included in the price. This wasn't the case. Fortunately, our driver was kind and helped us get tickets.
Entrance tickets are not included in the price, the lunch is! However, with public transport and Didi you cannot do these attractions in one day without stress. With our driver you will have a complete experience and a smooth ride! :)
You have some 2 hours for the mountain, for an easy climb, you need at least 3 hours to reach the pavilion on top, we did a speedrun :p we took the cable car, these tickets are also not included. It is worth it though.
Our driver could not speak English, but with translation apps such as Alipay and hand-communication it was a really easy experience. Our driver was very kind, helpful and he is a great driver. We really recommend him!!!
Mr. Driver, if you read this, thank you very much again for your hospitality, kindness, and help. We had great time and enjoyed this beautiful part of your country!

The experience was great...
The experience was great with Shi Jianhua as my driver!
I would recommend the tour as I covers two important sites in Qingcheng Mountain and Dujiangyan.
In particular, it was great Jianhua guided me through the Dujiangyan site which was helpful on top of having an audio guide
