I’m planning to visit Sichuan, but I don’t know where to go in a few days, how to combine the attractions, and whether I’ll be too busy every day? You can first tell Baifen Fleet the number of travel days, people traveling with you, and general ideas. Our self-developed itinerary planning assistant "Your Sichuan Friend" will help you organize your 1-5 day itinerary ideas for free by combining real route information and years of experience in Chengdu and Sichuan transfers and private tours.
Currently we use contact activation method. You don’t need to have a complete plan first, just say “It’s my first time in Chengdu, three days, I want to see pandas, and also want to go to nearby attractions”, you can start with a discussion of itineraries.
If you are planning to travel to Sichuan and have not yet decided on an itinerary, you can first tell Baifen Fleet the number of travel days, people traveling with you, must-visit attractions and your preferred pace. After contacting us, you can open "Your Sichuan Friend" for free. First compare three sets of route ideas, then generate daily maps and timelines, and continue to adjust according to your own schedule, physical strength and transportation needs.
It is difficult to arrange tourist routes in Sichuan, usually not because there are too few attractions
There are many places worth visiting in Sichuan, but the scenic spots are distributed in different directions, and the transportation and tour rhythm are also different. Two places that seem to be on the same road may actually take a lot of time on the road; the map distance is similar, but it does not necessarily mean that they are suitable to be placed together in one day.
What really affects the route are the people you travel with and your travel habits. People who come to Chengdu for the first time may want to see all the classic attractions; families with the elderly or children are more concerned about less walking, lunch break and return time; guests who have already booked hotels, flights or high-speed rail need to reorganize their routes around fixed nodes.
I want to see classic attractions, but I’m worried that it will be too full in three to five days.
Pay more attention to less walking, lunch breaks, child seats and return time.
Be willing to get up early, but need to judge the drive and physical stamina in advance.
After the hotel, flight or high-speed rail is confirmed, it needs to be reorganized around the time.
What is "Your Sichuan Friend"?
"Your Sichuan Friend" is a Sichuan travel itinerary planning assistant independently developed by Baifen Fleet. It is not simply a list of attractions from the Internet, but the real routes and point information we continue to compile, as well as many years of experience in serving Chengdu and Sichuan travel guests, are integrated into the planning logic.
At present, it is mainly suitable for 1-5 days travel in and around Chengdu, such as Chengdu urban area, Dujiangyan and Qingcheng Mountain, Sanxingdui, Anren Ancient Town, Leshan and Emei Mountain. The scope will continue to be improved, but at this stage, "all routes in Sichuan can be planned" will not be overstated.
No need to fill out complicated forms, just tell four things to get started
Just like chatting with a friend, you can first talk about how many days you plan to visit, how many people you want to go with, where you want to go, and whether you would like to relax or see more attractions. You don’t need to give all the information at once. Just have a general direction first and then adjust it gradually later.
If the hotel, flight, high-speed rail or return time has been determined, you can also tell it together. These fixed nodes will directly affect daily departure locations, attraction combinations and return arrangements.
Approximately where to start from, what day to arrive and return.
Several people, are there elderly, children or family members who need more care.
The places you most want to see, and the places you definitely don’t want to go.
If I want to be more relaxed, I still hope to see a few more attractions every day.
From an idea to a complete route, there are roughly four steps
After contacting Baifen Fleet, we will activate "Your Sichuan Friend" for free. You can first describe the trip in one sentence, such as "three days, two adults and one child, living near Chunxi Road, want to see pandas and Sanxingdui, but don't want to go out too early every day."
The system will first give three sets of plans with different emphasis, such as more classic, more relaxed, or more suitable for combining the urban area and surrounding areas. After selecting a direction, a daily tour sequence, map route, estimated driving and walking conditions are generated.
| step | what to do | what to get |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Free activation | Contact Baifen Fleet and explain your preparations for traveling to Sichuan | Get access to trip planning without having to book a vehicle first |
| 2. Express your thoughts | Tell it the number of days, people traveling with you, must-visit attractions, and schedule | Turn vague ideas into planable conditions |
| 3. Compare alternatives | Let’s first look at three sets of routes with different emphasis | Understand the trade-offs between classic, relaxed, or city-plus-surrounding options |
| 4. Continue to adjust | Check the map and timeline, and then make requests for starting later, walking less, etc. | Get a daily itinerary that’s closer to your own pace |
What information can be seen in an itinerary?
In addition to the order of scenic spots, "Your Sichuan Friend" will also try to include details that really affect the travel experience, making it easier to judge where to start each day, how to go, and whether it will be too rushed.
The route is a planning reference and will not replace real-time information on scenic spots, hotels and transportation platforms. It is still necessary to confirm the opening hours, ticketing and reservation requirements of the scenic spot before departure.
Where to start, where to go first, and where to return finally.
The approximate driving distance between attractions and the tightness of the day.
Possible walking intensity and tour length.
Tickets, opening arrangements and other matters that need to be confirmed before departure.
Suggestions for dining, accommodation areas and transportation options.
On the day of arrival, you can continue going down according to the arrangements of the day.
How can it be used in three common travel situations?
It is your first time to come to Chengdu and only have three days. You can first compare the combinations of "mainly classic attractions in the city", "Panda Base plus Sanxingdui", "city plus Dujiangyan Qingcheng Mountain", etc., and then decide whether you care more about culture, food or natural scenery.
When taking the elderly or children with you, tell them their daily routine, walking tolerance, and lunch break needs. The route will pay more attention to the daily rhythm and not overcrowd the attractions. If you want to go around Chengdu but are not sure about the transportation method, you can also compare the number of people, luggage and return time together.
| Travel situation | Planning focus | How can it be adjusted |
|---|---|---|
| It’s my first time to come to Chengdu, only three days. | How to choose between classic attractions and surrounding routes | Choose between humanities, food, pandas and natural scenery. |
| Bringing the elderly or children | Walking, lunch break, meal and return times | Place one less attraction every day to leave room for rest and temporary changes |
| Want to go around Chengdu | Driving distance, baggage, status of companions and mode of transportation | Compare public transportation and private charters to decide on a more suitable connection |
Take the subway, take a taxi or charter a car, it all depends on your actual needs
In urban areas of Chengdu, priority is usually given to subway and short-distance taxis to avoid parking and congestion, leaving time for walking and eating. When going to Qingcheng Mountain, Sanxingdui, Leshan and Mount Emei in Dujiangyan, you can compare between public transportation and private chartering based on the number of people, luggage, status of companions and return time.
If you really need to charter a car later, the team will pick you up from the hotel, B&B or agreed location, and the driver will arrive in advance as scheduled. The departure time can be combined with the guest's schedule, try to choose a convenient transfer point within the limits allowed by road and scenic area management, and assist in opening and closing the car door and loading and unloading ordinary luggage.
| scene | A more natural choice | Important considerations |
|---|---|---|
| Chengdu urban area | Subway plus short distance taxi | Congestion, parking, walking tours and dining locations |
| Around Chengdu | Public transportation or private charter comparison | Number of people, baggage, companion status and return time |
| Old people and children traveling together | Prioritize reducing transfers | Walking intensity, rest periods, child seats and belongings |
| There are many people or a lot of luggage | Select vehicle type based on number of people and luggage | Leave enough space for seats and luggage |
What will it do, and what are its boundaries?
It can help organize routes, compare options, generate maps and timelines, and can continue to adjust based on travel companions and travel preferences. Using the itinerary assistant does not mean that you must book a Baifen Fleet vehicle.
It does not book hotels and tickets for the time being, nor does it confirm real-time opening information for scenic spots. In the event of weather, temporary traffic control or scenic spot policy changes, the official information of the day still needs to prevail. The itinerary planning will be as close to the real trip as possible, but in the end some room should be left for on-site changes.
