Description

Good to Know

This is not another walking tour. These small group tours whisk you off the beaten path by private tuktuk and offer unlimited beer and soda while you and your English speaking guide watch the city pass by. You will eat where the locals eat at small, family-run businesses and try the best local food at places you can’t find on your own. After 3-4 hours, you will finish at local bar to try some rice wine or beer with the locals!

Local English-speaking guide

Chengdu

There are a million reasons Chengdu is an international food destination. It’s a UNESCO city of gastronomy. It’s the most popular Chinese cuisine in China. It has the highest per-capita ratio of restaurants in all of China. And at the same time, visitors know very little about food in Chengdu. Travel by tuktuk and encounter spots you could never find on your own for a mix of street food, sit-down restaurants, and family-run joints: Chengdu Street Crepes: This classic local street food comes in one of 4 flavor profiles: sweet, salty, spicy, and strange at a street-stall-turned-shop. Sichuan-style Wontons: Learn why locals call them “Chaoshou,” at a family restaurant where they’re made to order. All the Noodles: Originally served on the street by men who carried the ingredients around on bamboo poles, Dandan noodles are possibly the OG hawker dish. Classic Sichuan Dishes: Sample local delicacies like Mapo Tofu (there’s plenty of not-so-spicy dishes here too).

Lost Plate Chengdu

Claire was our guide for the Chengdu lost plate tour and was great at explaining everything and organising us. Its a great way to get to try a lot of different dishes and go to places that are traditional, local and serve really great food. The 5 places we visited were all different. Claire explained about the restaurant history and food. A great evening, loads of food. The tuktuk was fun as was the whole evening. If you like food I'd recommend a lost plate tour

We tuk tuk a chance and enjoyed the experience

Our tour guild Claire was great, she was funny and very chatty. There was plenty of food involved and beer if you wanted. The tuk tuks were great and added to the experience. All in all we enjoyed the experience.

Fantastic Chengdu Local Spots Food Tour

Fantastic tour with Rose. The food was excellent and all the meat was of a good quality (we were quite worried having had a few very gristly meats in our solo attempts). The TukTuks let you move between various spots in Chengdu with no hassle. The tour provided more than enough food / drink for the group and Rose was happy to accommodate or answer questions throughout. We also received a set of stamps, post card and gift bags at the end. Highly recommend if your visiting Chengdu.

Wonderful food tour

Fantastic experience. Lots of different foods to try. Tuk Tuk experience - lovely tuk tuk drivers. Guide Heaton was great - so friendly and kind and full of great knowledge and passion for Chengdu food. Felt like we were out with a friend. The other two women in our group were fun too. Lots of laughs. Highly recommended
