Hi this is Chen! It’s always more than the sceneries. Stories bring the attractions alive! Story-telling is what I believed to be one of the best ways to do a tour. I offer a unique touring service that focuses on the ancient and genuine historical tales and stories. I took a story-based narration combined with the historical palaces. I also did historical fact checks to ensure the authenticity of the stories I share.

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!"

Rory M.
China
Growing up between Hong Kong and Scotland, Rory was never a stranger to adventure. Whether it was scaling munros in the Scottish Highlands or the finding new waterfalls in the New Territories of HK, he was always keen to utilise any opportunity to explore. After finishing school, he got his first taste of a big adventure sailing an 80ft yacht from Scotland to the Svalbard archipelago near the North Pole. His post school years were then spent working and skiing in New Zealand & travelling around Southeast Asia. All of this, before moving to Australia to pursue degree in architecture. Whilst studying, Rory completed a solo bicycle trip across Vietnam and China, cycling from Saigon to Hong Kong. He wrote a book based on the experience that led to greater endeavours in the ensuing years. With university done, Rory proceeded to tackle a bigger challenge; cycling across Africa. He completed the solo ride from Cape Town to Cairo within 5 months, with a few eye-opening experiences along the way to say the least! His recent kayaking expeditions around Hong Kong, trekking in the Himalayas and climbing of some high altitude routes in the Andes other notable experiences among many. As an experienced traveller, he enjoys meeting other travellers and showing them a different side to Hong Kong. Having grown up there, he has a unique insight into many facets of 'HK' life.

“A Complete Tour ”
Cathy is knowledgeable, conversant in English and able to accommodate little changes in itinerary. Prior to visiting each attraction, she would give you an overview and history. During the tour, she would reiterate the pertinent information. This is very useful on attractions like the forbidden city, and the great wall with long history. Cathy is also very attentive. She prepared three sets of winter wear and heatpacks, knowing that we were not adequately dressed. Other gestures like a cake on my birthday was very heartwarming. Thanks Cathy.
