Day1 Chengdu — Giant pandas & Sichuan table
Touch down and just breathe — no rush today. Chengdu is a soft landing, and your guide spends day one quietly working out your rhythm so the whole trip bends around you, not some script.

Day2 Chengdu — Giant pandas & Sichuan table
Slow start or early one, totally your call. a teahouse afternoon in Renmin Park is roughly the heart of today, and we leave plenty of breathing room so nothing feels rushed. Food-wise, hold out for Sichuan hot pot — worth it. And here’s the bit that’s properly ours: Sichuan opera face-changing (bianlian) and Shu embroidery — a private face-changing show and a Shuxiu studio. Most tours can’t get you in the room — we can.

Day3 Jiuzhaigou — Jiuzhaigou turquoise lakes
We’ll build today loosely around the Jiuzhaigou valley lakes and waterfalls, at your pace and nobody else’s. Expect a small surprise or two your guide pulls out depending on the day. Tibetan-Qiang highland fare sorts the eating.

Day4 Jiuzhaigou — Jiuzhaigou turquoise lakes
Today’s the kind you’ll be showing people photos of later — Tibetan villages on the valley floor, with the freedom to slow right down whenever something catches your eye. Lunch or dinner usually circles back to Tibetan-Qiang highland fare. And here’s the bit that’s properly ours: Amdo Tibetan song and Qiang embroidery in a valley village. Most tours can’t get you in the room — we can.

Day5 Huanglong — Huanglong travertine pools
Ease into the Huanglong terraced calcite pools today. Nothing’s rigid — your guide flexes things around the weather and how you’re feeling, so it stays comfortable start to finish. And highland fare is exactly what you’ll want when hunger hits.

Day6 Huanglong — Huanglong travertine pools
Honestly, this is one of those days people bring up for years. We’ll point you at the Huanglong terraced calcite pools — and since it’s all yours, you linger where it grabs you and wander off when you’re ready. Somewhere in there, highland fare, the kind locals actually line up for, not the tourist version. And here’s the bit that’s properly ours: Tibetan-Qiang mountain craft. Most tours can’t get you in the room — we can.
