Itinerary
The day begins at 8 am when your private guide collects you from your Chengdu hotel, a morning visit is best as that's when the pandas are most active. As you explore the extensive grounds, you'll see a myriad giant pandas eating, playing, and relaxing in their spacious enclosures. This conservation facility was one of the first places in China to successfully breed giant pandas, and you'll be able to learn all about the program at the museum on site. At most times of year, you'll also be able to see adorable baby pandas. Kids will love the veterinary exhibits here, as well as the fascinating film about the daily lives of pandas. Besides giant pandas, the base is home to red pandas, golden monkeys, flocks of birds, and black-necked cranes, as well as floral displays and luxuriant bamboo stands. After around 2.5 hours at the base, your guide will transfer you back to your hotel, arriving around 11:30 am.
