Frequently Asked Questions
Are the tours suitable for all ages?
Our group tours are best suited for visitors aged 5 to 70. Since the city is quite hilly, walking can be tiring for some.
For families with young children or travelers with limited mobility, a private tour offers significant advantages. Smaller vehicles enhance convenience with easier parking and the ability to pick up guests directly from their accommodations, minimizing walking distances and ensuring a more comfortable travel experience.

What is the best time to visit Chongqing?
Chongqing is a year-round destination, but I recommend avoiding travel during the first week of October. This coincides with China's National Day holiday, leading to a significant influx of domestic tourists. The crowds in Chongqing can become overwhelming during this period.
As noted in our introduction, tour prices can fluctuate based on the travel season. If your travel dates are flexible, consider visiting during the shoulder seasons for potentially more budget-friendly options.
