Itinerary

Day 1 · Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou

Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding

8 hours Admission included

Your day kicks off bright and early at 7:30 AM when your guide meets you in the hotel lobby. You’ll head straight to the Chengdu Panda Base—morning is prime time to see those adorable furballs munching on bamboo and tumbling around!

After soaking up all the panda cuteness, you’ll hop on a first-class high-speed train (about 2 hours) from Chengdu East Station to Jiuzhaigou. Once you arrive, a private car will whisk you off on a scenic 2-hour ride right to the outside of Jiuzhaigou, where you’ll spend the night. Get some rest—you’ve got an unforgettable adventure ahead tomorrow!

Day 2 · Jiuzhaigou Full-Day Adventure

Jiuzhaigou Natural Reserve

8 hours Admission included

Today, you'll discover why Jiuzhaigou is called 'heaven on earth'—a UNESCO-listed wonderland of turquoise lakes, rushing waterfalls, and forests that look like they’ve been painted in vivid colors. Tucked away in Sichuan’s Tibetan highlands, this place feels like stepping into a dream.

But here’s the best part: If you love hiking and want to escape the crowds, we’ve got a secret trail just for you—one that most tourists never see. Imagine having those postcard-perfect views all to yourself!

Day 3 · Visit Huanglong Scenic Area and Return to Chengdu

Huanglong Scenic Valley

8 hours Admission included

We'll hit the road bright and early at 7:00 AM for a scenic two-hour drive to Huanglong—a dazzling landscape of colorful pools and mountain vistas. Want to take it easy? Hop on the cable car for breathtaking views with minimal effort. Prefer to explore on foot? We’ll map out the perfect hiking route based on your energy level—this is your adventure, after all!

After 4-5 hours soaking in Huanglong’s natural wonders, we’ll make a pit stop in charming Chuanzhusi Town for a tasty local lunch. Then, it’s just short ride to Huanglong Jiuzhaigou Station, where we’ll catch the afternoon high-speed train back to Chengdu (a smooth 2-hour journey).

We’ll wrap up this unforgettable trip by dropping you off at your Chengdu hotel.
