Itinerary: Welcome to Chengdu, the laid-back capital of Sichuan! Upon your arrival at Chengdu Tianfu (TFU) or Shuangliu (CTU) International Airport, your private chauffeur will warmly greet you. Enjoy a smooth transfer to your downtown luxury hotel.
The afternoon is yours to relax or explore the city at your own pace (we highly recommend strolling through the lively Jinli Ancient Street). In the evening, immerse yourself in local culture by attending the famous Shu Feng Ya Yun Sichuan Opera. Marvel at the breathtaking "Face-Changing" (Bian Lian) performance, fire-spitting acts, and traditional puppetry while sipping authentic local tea.

In the afternoon, drive to the world-renowned Sanxingdui Museum. Prepare to be astounded by the extraterrestrial-looking bronze masks, giant bronze trees, and gold artifacts of a mysterious civilization that vanished 3,000 years ago.
Instead of driving back to the crowded city, we head to Dujiangyan. Check into your handpicked hotel and step out to enjoy the spectacular night view of the ancient town and the illuminated river bridge—a peaceful privilege most tourists miss.
Day 3: Serene Panda Encounters, Ancient Engineering & Departure

Next, visit the majestic Dujiangyan Irrigation System, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Built over 2,200 years ago, it is an engineering marvel that still functions perfectly today, turning the Sichuan basin into the "Land of Abundance."
In the late afternoon or evening, your private chauffeur will seamlessly transfer you to Chengdu Tianfu International Airport (TFU) for your departure flight (flights around 21:00 or later are recommended).
