Prices
Private car & companion prices for Leshan and Mount Emei
Simple to add up, nothing hidden. We charge for three things only: the car, your English-speaking companion and a service fee. Tickets, meals and shopping you choose on the day and pay yourself, directly to the scenic area or shop.
Quick answer
A private car with driver costs ¥600 a day from Leshan and can go anywhere in Leshan, including the Giant Buddha and Mount Emei. From a Chengdu hotel it's ¥1,000 a day (¥600 + ¥400 long-distance fee), which covers the Giant Buddha but leaves no time for Mount Emei. Car prices are for 2–3 people. An English-speaking companion is ¥800 a day, plus a ¥200 service fee per day. Entrance tickets, meals and gifts are not in our price: you pay them yourself, directly to the scenic area or shop.
What we charge
Private car from Leshan
¥600
per car, per day (2–3 people)
A full day with a driver, anywhere in Leshan, including the Giant Buddha and Mount Emei. Fuel, tolls and parking included.
Private car from Chengdu
¥1,000
per car, per day (2–3 people)
¥600 day rate + ¥400 long-distance fee. Pickup and drop-off at your Chengdu hotel, about 10–11 hours: enough for the Giant Buddha, not for Mount Emei.
English-speaking companion
¥800
per day
Meets you at your hotel and stays with you all day: translating, finding the right entrances and shuttles, and ordering food.
Service fee
¥200
per day, with a companion
Covers your companion's own entrance tickets and similar costs, so you never pay for them separately.
All prices are in Chinese yuan (RMB).
Paid by you, directly
These are not in our price. You decide on the day what you want and pay the scenic area or shop yourself. We help you buy, and you pay the normal price, with nothing added.

Giant Buddha and Mount Emei tickets, boats, shuttle buses and cable cars. We help you buy them with your passport, and you pay the scenic area directly.

Eat wherever you like, about ¥150 per person per meal. We recommend dishes and order for you, and you pay the restaurant directly for what you eat.

Buy what you want, when you want, and pay the shop yourself. We never take you to shopping stops.

Good to know
- Car prices are for 2–3 people. For a bigger group we use a larger car and quote it separately.
- Trips of two days or more are charged per day; from a Chengdu hotel, the long-distance fee is charged every day too. If you stay overnight, you also pay for your driver's and companion's rooms that night. Example, two days with car and companion: ¥3,200 from Leshan, or ¥4,000 from a Chengdu hotel, plus their rooms.
- Cars stop at the scenic area's drop-off point. Inside, you ride the scenic area's own shuttle bus, paid like a ticket.
- One-way transfers, station pickups in Leshan or Chengdu, and Tianfu Airport transfers: message us on WhatsApp for a price.
- Payment details are agreed by message before your trip.
