I was really impressed by this place! It covers such a large area, and the grounds are beautifully laid out. The panda enclosures are spacious, and if you're patient, you can definitely catch some great views of the adorable pandas. There are also a few other animals to see. I did quite a bit of walking, but there were plenty of rest areas and food/drink stops along the way. Mia, my guide, was fantastic and made the experience even more enjoyable as I soaked in all the sights!
Everybody from Your Way Holiday was amazing! I contacted them via WhatsApp with some questions, and they ensured I had all the information before booking. On the day of the activity, my guide was incredibly accommodating, kind, and attentive. I felt very well taken care of. Before booking, please note that you won't be allowed to touch or feed the pandas. I find this rule to be very reasonable and fair, as I wouldn't want to stress the animals. The only thing that I didn't really like is that the experience involved a bit less actual work than I expected (and wanted) based on some reviews I had read. This isn't a reflection on Your Way Holiday, as the activities are organized by the research base. Overall, I'm incredibly glad I did this and would do it again! A huge thank you to the girls from Your Way Holiday!
We had an amazing trip to the Dujiangyan panda centre. Being a Panda keeper for the day is worth every penny. We saw over 40 Pandas, a good mix of baby pandas and adults. We made panda cakes, cleaned the enclosure and the best of all was feeding the beautiful panda bamboo shoots in his enclosure. So much fun. 5 stars.
This review of our October trip is a bit late, but I must say it was one of my best experiences in China. We were met at our hotel by Jay, who was an informative and personable guide throughout the day. He not only shared insights about the panda center but also engaged us in conversations about our life experiences and mutual interests, highlighting our shared love for pandas as Americans. Acting as panda keepers while the pandas watched us clean their areas was a unique experience, and feeding them their snacks was a real treat. Observing them munch on bamboo and lounge in their enclosures was delightful. We enjoyed a lovely lunch and learned a lot from a video about the research centers, with another highlight being the chance to see the adorable Red Pandas and some bears.
Great stress-free way to see the pandas, especially in the heat of the summer and with huge crowds due to the summer holidays. Our guide, Allen, met us at our hotel and knew the shortcuts to navigate the large sanctuary grounds and avoid some of the crowds. If we had been on our own, it would have been a bit of a challenge. Allen was punctual and friendly, answering all our questions and even helping us book the Chinese Opera for the afternoon. Thanks, Allen!
I was recommended by friends to go to the Panda Centre early for opening, and I’m so glad I did! I contacted my guide, Mike, he was happy to adjust our departure time to leave early. Mike arrived at the hotel before the scheduled pickup and had a sign with Your Way Holiday on it. He spoke good English and was eager to share all about the city during our journey to the Panda Park. I had a fantastic experience, and highly recommend this to anyone visiting!
The panda center is absolutely amazing! We saw so many pandas, from adorable babies to full-sized adults. The highlight was definitely spotting the playful red pandas; they were so entertaining! I loved every moment of our visit!
Great attraction! With our guide Mia and driver Mr. Hu providing attentive service, we were taken to Panda Avenue and then to the research center. For non-Chinese travelers, I recommend pre-booking through your chosen provider (we used Private Tour) and uploading your passport details for entry. We allowed 4-5 hours in the park since there was so much walking to do. While there are multi-person golf buggies available for an extra cost, we enjoyed walking around. The pandas usually come out around 9:30 AM, but not all were out on the day we visited. Don't miss the red pandas—they were so playful, running around and making us smile!
Daniel was really friendly and helpful, always quick to reply on WeChat. The whole experience was super smooth—he booked the tickets using our passports, and there were no issues with entry. We were picked up by a fantastic driver who arrived right on time and was also very friendly. Daniel was flexible in arranging our drop-off at Tianfu Airport after visiting the Panda Base. It was such a unique experience to understand the work of the keepers and get up close to the giant pandas. I would definitely book another tour with this team!
Cindy was incredibly friendly and helpful, always prompt in her responses on WeChat. The entire experience went off without a hitch—she efficiently booked our tickets using our passports, and we had no issues with entry. Our driver was excellent, arriving right on time and displaying a warm demeanor. Cindy was also flexible in arranging our drop-off at Tianfu Airport after our visit to the Panda Base. I would definitely book another tour with this team!
