Hi there! We are Victor's team, a group of local guides and photographers based in Chengdu, the city where pandas live. Having worked as a tour leader for several western tour companies such as Intrepid travel, Peregrine & Geckos adventure, Imaginative travel between 2004 and 2012, Victor had the opportunity to explore many incredible places in China and capture countless memorable moments with my guests. However, in order to spend more time with his family, he decided to quit the tour leader job and focus on showcasing the real China life in Chengdu with his team. When you book a tour with us, you can expect an authentic experience that goes beyond the modern cement forests. We’ll start by visiting the Panda Base, where we’ll share our working experience and introduce you to the real monks or Taoists in nearby temples. You’ll even have the opportunity to dine with them and learn how to prepare some culinary delights off the beaten track. Additionally, we’ll take you to witness the lama’s Sutra-debating at the largest Tibetan Buddhism institute and guide you to the best locations for capturing stunning photographs. In a word, we are committed to showing you the very best of Chengdu while ensuring your trip is hassle-free. If you’re planning to visit China, don’t miss out on Chengdu. And if you’re visiting Chengdu, don’t forget Victor's team! Let’s meet as strangers and part as good friends!"

“Personalized and Amazing Tours”
Veronica is a wonderful tour guide. I booked 3 days with her: Nov. 24th, 25th, and 26th. When I reached out a week prior, I informed her about the duration of my stay in Chengdu and why I was visiting. Veronica asked me questions about my interests and then provided me an entire weeks-long itinerary. This itinerary was thoughtfully crafted with my interests in mind and it included the days she would guide me as well as things I can do on my own when I wasn't with her. This was one of many things that she did which shows she has integrity and is a good person. When I would meet with her she would pick me up at my place of stay and we would always enjoy amazing and new food each day. She remembered my food restrictions and preferences. In between giving me details and explanations at historical sites, I could easily talk to her about anything. She was approachable and kind. It was like we were close friends almost immediately. Veronica ensured that I made the most out of my stay and tour with her as a solo traveler. Since I'm so shy about asking others to take a photo of me, I have long gotten used to not taking photos. Veronica would be the first to suggest that I have my photo taken, even finding cute poses for me to recreate. She would take amazing care with the photos, getting various angles and even timed them with the background events. I absolutely love the photos she took. I can't thank Veronica enough for making my stay in Chengdu amazing. Thank you so much!
