Our Story
Off Script was born in 2015 on a dusty road in western Sichuan. Our founder, a Chengdu native who had spent years guiding international friends through the province, realized something: the best experiences in Sichuan were the ones no travel agency offered.
The hidden valley with prayer flags flapping in the wind. The noodle shop where the owner has been perfecting one recipe for 30 years. The Tibetan nomad family who welcomes you not as a customer, but as a guest. These moments can't be packaged β they have to be crafted.
Today, Off Script is a team of 30+ local guides, drivers, and travel designers who share one belief: your trip should feel like it was made just for you. Because it was.
Our Mission
To create the most authentic, personal, and unforgettable travel experiences in Sichuan β connecting international travelers with the real people, places, and stories that make this region extraordinary.
What We Believe
Authentic Over Tourist
No bus tours. No shopping stops. No scripted performances. Just real connections with real people in real places.
Always Private
Every trip is private β just you, your group, and your guide. No strangers, no fixed schedules, no compromises.
Locally Rooted
Our guides are local. Our partners are local. Our knowledge comes from living here, not from guidebooks.
Travel That Gives Back
We work with local families, homestays, and small businesses. Your trip supports communities, not corporations.
Safety Without Compromise
Licensed vehicles, trained guides, oxygen on high-altitude routes, and 24/7 emergency support. Adventure shouldn't mean risk.
