Xian 2 Jiuzhaigou by train, then jiuzhaigou to Chengdu

Hey there,

I am looking to get from Xian to Jiuzhaigou. I cant seem to find many airlines which do this route and the ones that do are out of my budget. So is this the best way

train from Xian to Guangyuan, then bus from guangyuang to Jiuzhaigou, does anyone know how long or how much this will cost?
Then buy 2 day pass for the park, how much are they?

Ive heard you can stay in one of the tibetan houses? This sounds like a very worth while experience. is it?

Then how easy and how much is it to get from Jiuzhaigou to Chengdu? Is the traint the best way for this.

Hope all are well

There're direct flights for Xi'an -- Jiuzhaigou, but I suspect that they don't run year-round.
IIRC the 2-day pass for Jiuzhaigou is about 310 RMB inclusive of the 90 RMB intra-park shuttle buses (excellent service here), assuming you don't qualify for any discounts eg student.
There's no train station at Jiuzhaigou. Either you fly (about 50 mins) or take a bus (10 hours).
Cheers!
