Travel to Jiuzhaigou Valley and Huanglong National Park, two of China's most magnificent natural wonders, where every turn of your head unveils a breathtaking spectacle. Discover a world where nature's palette bursts with colors so vivid they seem almost unreal.

Jiuzhaigou Valley, often referred to as a "fairyland," sprawls across the northern part of Sichuan Province. It's a place where emerald lakes mirror the sky, waterfalls cascade down rugged cliffs, and dense forests echo with the whisper of wind and wildlife. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is more than just a feast for the eyes; it's a retreat for the soul. A two-hour drive from Jiuzhaigou brings you to Huanglong National Park, an equally enchanting place famed for its colorful calcite deposit terraces. The park's name translated as "Yellow Dragon," is an homage to the golden hue of these terraces, reminiscent of a dragon's scales.

When you choose a tour of Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong, you're not just signing up for a trip; you're embarking on a journey of discovery and wonderment, a journey that will stay etched in your memory long after you've left these magical valleys behind.

Planning Your Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Tour from Chengdu

Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong are located in the north of Sichuan, about 425km from Chengdu. The opening of the high-speed train between Chengdu and Jiuzhaigou has made travel significantly faster. Now, travelers can get to Jiuzhaigou by high-speed train in about 1.5 hours.

In addition to the high-speed train, travelers can also reach Jiuzhaigou by flight (approximately 1 hour) or by car (around 8-10 hours). We recommend spending 2 or 3 days in Jiuzhaigou to fully explore both Huanglong National Park and Jiuzhaigou Valley.

The time of our life in Beijing!

Martin helped us customize our trip to Beijing. Bruce spoke great English. Our driver kept us safe through our travels. We took the bullet train from Shanghai to Beijing. Our 4 hour trip turned into 6 due to a snowstorm but Bruce greeted us as we stepped off the train. He was the perfect gentleman carrying our bags navigating our way through the train station. He took us to a delicious restaurant. We went to Tienanmen Square, the Temple of Heaven, a pearl boutique and an acrobatic show. Bruce taught us so much about Chinese history. It was truly fascinating. Day 2 Bruce met us in our hotel lobby. We went to a jade boutique, the Great Wall of China, and a tea room. It was all amazing. We flew to Chengdu to see the pandas and Martin met us at our hotel. It was such a nice surprise and to put a face to the messaging. I highly recommend booking a tour with them.

Excellent trip to Tibet in Dec 2023

Our tour began in Chengdu. The agency helped us book a train to Lhasa, and arranged for a driver and English-speaking tour guide in Lhasa and Nyingchi. The hotels chosen were good, and the scenery was simply breathtaking. Thank you to Anthony at the agency for making the planning and booking process so smooth!
