5.00Our guide Lesley wasn’t just knowledgeable—she was emotionally connected to the city. She told us childhood stories, taught us local slang, and even showed us how she orders hotpot with friends. The route itself was beautifully planned. The Taoist cave temple felt secretive and sacred. The walk was gentle and scenic. And dinner was the grand finale. This tour didn’t just show us the sites, it brought us into them.
Good day and good food

5.00We booked several tours in different cities across China, and every service was truly excellent. In Chongqing, we had the pleasure of meeting Lesley—she was so attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly with our entire family. The itinerary struck the perfect balance between sightseeing, cultural discovery, and tasty local hotpot. The kids loved exploring hidden temples and my parents still talks about the views! Thank you, CET, for a lovely trip and wonderful memories in China. Highly recommended for families!

5.00It’s a long day, but well worth it. You get to see and taste the real Chongqing—especially with a local guide. And it's great for solo travelers like me! I made new friends over dinner and learned a few phrases in Chongqing dialect.
