The cheapest tour in this whole batch, and it is cheap for a reason worth knowing before you book. The price is built on four compulsory shopping stops of ninety minutes each. Skip them and the operator charges USD 300 more per person. That is the deal, and it is stated plainly further down this page rather than buried in a PDF.
What you get for ₱31,135 is a lot. The Leshan Giant Buddha by boat, which is the right way to see it. Huanglongxi Ancient Town, the Eastern Suburb Memory arts district, Chunxi Road and Taikoo Li in Chengdu. An hour of skiing at Zhegu Mountain with skis and poles thrown in. The Giant Panda Park at Dujiangyan with the shuttle, the Blue Tears light show at Nanqiao Bridge, Guanxian Ancient City and Kuanzhai Alley.
Air China flies you direct to Chengdu Tianfu both ways. Four nights in 4 star hotels, four breakfasts, five lunches and two dinners.

All five departures are the same, ₱31,135 per person on twin sharing, which is USD 479. The dates are 10 to 14 January, 24 to 28 January, 14 to 18 February, 16 to 20 February and 19 to 23 February 2027.
There are four designated stores: jade, Tibetan medicine, latex and silk. They sit on Days 4 and 5. The group has to visit all four and spend at least ninety minutes in each, so about six hours across the trip. You do not have to buy anything. If the group does not complete all four stops, the operator applies a USD 300 per person surcharge, about ₱19,500, which would take this tour past the price of the no shopping Chengdu and Jiuzhai Valley trip. Book this one knowing that, or take the other one.
One complimentary hour at Zhegu Mountain, with skis and poles provided. It is a taster, not a ski holiday. Everything else you might want is rented on the spot in renminbi: helmet, goggles and gloves are 10 each, a locker is 20, a full ski suit is 50 and a jacket alone is 30.
Yes, and we handle it. You travel on a China group visa, which costs USD 40 per person, about ₱2,600, collected with your tour fee. It is a group document, so you enter and leave China together with the group.
Yes, at the Giant Panda Park in Dujiangyan on Day 4, with the battery shuttle included.
Four hotel breakfasts, five lunches and two dinners. Three dinners are yours, including the Leshan food street on the first night, which is the point of that stop.
Three. The Sichuan opera face changing show on Day 2 at USD 40, the Dream Back to Qingcheng Apsaras show on Day 4 at USD 45, and a Sichuan double flavour hot pot dinner on Day 4 at USD 40. The Apsaras show has to be confirmed three days before departure and cannot be added on the day.
A child from 2 to 5 years old without their own bed is USD 20 less than the adult, about ₱1,300 off. From 6 years old local rules require their own bed and they pay the adult rate. Tell us the ages when you book.
A deposit of USD 200 per person, about ₱13,000, within three days of confirming. It is non refundable and it cannot be transferred to another departure. The rest is due one month before you travel.
