Chengdu Layover Tour: Panda Base & Old Town by Metro with Guide Discount Tickets

Overview

Short layover in Chengdu? Your English-speaking guide meets you inside the arrivals hall with a name sign and stays with you until you check in for your onward flight. Together you ride Metro Line 18 - a direct 40-minute run from Tianfu Airport into the city that skips the traffic jams taxis sit in. You visit the Giant Panda Base, walk the old lanes of Kuanzhai Alley, and enjoy an authentic local lunch. Please note: this is a guided Metro-and-walking tour, not a private car tour. We chose the Metro on purpose - it is the most reliable way to make your onward flight during rush hour. Highlights: - Guide meets you at arrivals with a name sign, stays until check-in - Giant Panda Base admission included, timed to beat the crowds - Metro Line 18: 40 min airport to city, no traffic risk - Authentic local lunch, non-spicy options - Kuanzhai Alley, Renmin Park teahouse, Chunxi Road - Route built around your actual flight times
