PHP 25,935 per person, which is USD 399 at the rate we use, for four days across Chongqing and Chengdu with the airfare already in it. You fly Air China into Chengdu, drive over to Chongqing for two nights, then come back to Chengdu for the last night.
Chongqing is the one people remember. The light rail at Liziba Station runs straight through a residential block and you stand on the viewing deck watching it happen. Ciqikou Ancient Town is the old river port, now packed with food stalls. You also get the panda pavilion at Chongqing Zoo, and in Chengdu the Giant Panda Climbing The Wall mural, Taikoo Li, Chunxi Road, Kuanzhai Alleys and Jinli Ancient Street.
One thing to know before you book. This is a shopping tour. Three stops are built into Days 2 and 3 and you cannot skip them. Everything we know about them is spelled out below.
