Get up close and personal with Chengdu's cutest residents on this half-day tour. After meeting your guide at the meeting point, enjoy a 40-minute drive to the Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding.

Go for a stroll along the park's bamboo-shaded path and visit the adorable pandas in their enclosures. You will have the opportunity to see pandas of all ages. Afterward, head to the Panda Nursery to see the baby panda cubs.

Later, meet the raccoon-like red pandas in their enclosure, then leave the panda base and get dropped off in central Chengdu(Tianfu Square) in the noon.

Option 2: Full-day Chengdu Panda Base & Leshan Giant Buddha Group Tour

Detailed Itinerary& Suggested Timing:

07:40 AM - 08:30 AM: Meet at meeting point & Transfer to Chengdu Panda Base
08:30 AM - 11:00 AM: Panda Base Visit
Arrive at the Panda Base as it opens—the best time to see the pandas when they are most active. Stroll through the beautiful park-like facility to observe adult pandas munching on bamboo, playful juveniles, and the adorable, tiny panda cubs (in the nursery, if available).
