Great Panda tour and nice temple at the water irrigation place. - This was a very nice private several hours tour. Bella, our guide did an excellent job. She was very professional and friendly. We went first to the Dujiangyan Panda base which was very nice and not at all crowded. Bella knew quite well were to go, at what time and the best locations to watch the Pandas. After that, she took us to the Water irrigation system. I was a little skeptical to go and see a dam of it turn to be a super interesting experience about a wonderful piece of Engineering but also with the visit of a temple and group of buildings that was awesome. Some of the best pictures from the China trip. At all times, Bella did a great job and was always willing to help. Furthermore, we made the comment about needing to buy a new bag/luggage and in our way back to the hotel we stopped in a market to buy it! That is customer service! The driver was also very polite and professional and the car was very nice and comfortable. Great day watching Pandas and other interesting places, great pictures and very nice and friendly company with Bella! Highly recommended tour!
