Itinerary
Keep your camera to hand as you visit two of Chengdu’s most photo-worthy sites on this full-day tour – the UNESCO-listed Grand Buddha in Leshan and the Chengdu Panda Base. Start your day getting close to China’s adorable native pandas, with the chance to spot Giant Pandas, Red Pandas and baby pandas.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Leshan Giant Buddha stands 133 feet (71 meters) tall where three rivers meet—but there’s more to Leshan than the statue. This private full-day door-to-door tour lets you experience the Buddha from every angle—from a boat, from the stairs in the cliff, and even above his head.

5Day trip Panda and Leshan
Trip to Panda base was excellent. Giant pandas were lovely. Trip to Leshan Buddha was great. And walking all the way up to the buddha head was brilliant. Visiting temples and going up so near buddha was great. Breathtaking views. Our driver SHI JIANHUA was calm and helpful plus excellent driver. Was on time to pick us up from hotel. Very helpful all the way. Waited for us to meet up when we finished going around Panda base then also walked and guided us at Leshan buddha site. Excellent day trip with Shi Jianhua Five stars to him for making our day so wonderful in every way. Thank you will recommend to family and friends.

Our driver Mr Deng Xuejun drove us to the Panda Centre and Leshan Buddah. He was on time, gave us printed English information about the activities and helped direct us where to buy entrance tickets to the Panda Centre and boat ride at Leshan. He gave us clear instructions on where to find the car anfterwards and patiently waited for us, after all it was a long day. The car was very comfortable. Thank you for a great day
