“I was disappointed that I wasn't able to visit Mt. Emei while in the area but found this tour and was impressed! First of all, I did not realize that this was a personal tour. All the other trips I've taken on Viator.com are with a big group. Not for this one, just you and the guide! My guide was nice and fun, which is good since just the two of us spent the whole day together. The irrigation system was okay, a bit crowded by the color of the water was beautiful and the bridge to see right by the entrance was neat. I like the swinging bridges, would…”

“Pandabasen var perfekt - mange vågne pandaer, fodring og gode muligheder for billeder. Meget vidende, behagelig og sød guide (Victor). Ved vandingssystemet var der ALT for mange mennesker. Og selvfølgelig er det imponerende, at det er bygget for over 2000 år siden. Men så er det heller ikke mere spændende. Vi endte med at gå, da vi ikke gad slås med flere kinesere om at komme frem. Men det var også lørdag i sommerferien.”
