Private Local Host in Chengdu

Overview

Discover the vibrant culture of Chengdu with a private experience led by your local host, Sun Xiang Steven. With decades living in the city, I’ll give you an authentic glimpse into both famous attractions and hidden local gems. Enjoy personalized itinerary planning, transport navigation help, ticket purchase guidance, and recommendations for the best local dishes all without any shopping stops or hidden fees. This intimate experience caters to small groups of 1 to 4 people, ensuring a relaxed, tailored day at your own pace. As a local who has lived in Chengdu for decades, I know the city’s hidden stories and best-kept secrets. This is an independent local companion service, not a licensed tour guide or driver service.
