Legend is amazing as a guide! We wanted to see the Dazu carvings, but knew that if we went alone we would miss out on so much of the history and information that are behind the carvings. I'm so glad we chose to go with Legend instead of a larger tour group (we also toured Wulong with him and would recommend him for that as well!). The attention to detail, the local dining experience we enjoyed, the information behind the carvings was well worth the cost of the tour. He was very knowledgeable and patient with our many questions, as well as more than helpful when he didn't need to be - he assisted us with doing a nighttime river cruise that was above and beyond what was required, as we were not using his services for that tour. When the local travel company wouldn't assist us with a nighttime cruise, we contacted Legend for help and he came through for us with flying colors and ended up saving us money in the long run. He took very good care of us! We will return to Chongqing next year and plan to look him up not just as a helpful guide but as a friend.It was a pleasant experience from the beginning, the guide, Legend, contacted me, immediately after making the payment and the reservation, for reasons of my itinerary I wanted to make some adjustments to the schedule was very friendly and adjusted to my needs, I even took to know some attraction...
