Tips from local tour guide

1. This is a private tour package; you can choose your own time to come. The best season to do this tour is from December to February but other seasons are also good. This tour is customizable.

2. It involves short walking to the location.

3. Local transfer is involved in order to go deeper into the mountains.

4. Traveling to the listed places will expect lower standard services at hotels and restaurants, even if they maybe the best choices. The service level is not as up to what you have in places like Chengdu. The hotel people don't speak English, nor do the people from restaurants. These places are quite far, wild but beautiful. As authenticity comes often with less comfortability. Public Toilet can be really bad. You are always recommended to use your toilet in your hotel while you don't want to use the public toilet or do it in the open wild. You are recommended to have toilet paper with you. Food are with limited options at most of the places. Basically you can find Chinese Food with Sichuan style. On a guided trip you can have them customized into vegetarian or non/less spicy.
