• 5Great and fun experience

  Fun experience and get to prepare foods for panda. Our guide Molly was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. She seems to enjoy being a guide and love pandas! After the tour, we get to keep our shirt, a certificate and other goodies. Both my friend and I were glad we signed up for this experience.

• 5Pandas!!!

  This was a cool way to get as close to pandas as possible without actually working at a research facility or zoo! The "work" was not strenuous- it was more so a sample of what is done on a day-to-day basis to ensure the pandas are adequately fed. My guide took pictures for me while I worked and I was able to see a panda eating close-up (no photos allowed in that area). The park itself seems to be set up well and they mentioned that the pandas are moved around from pen to pen in order to prevent boredom. There was a lot of information provided- I definitely learned new things about pandas and the conservation effort!

• 5Who doesn't love Pandas

  Watched a keeper feed an old Panda with bamboo shoots from about 1 metre away. Couldn't take photos but it was awesome to see up close. Smashing the bamboo on the concrete was fun and you get plenty of time to look around at the Pandas. Lunch in the staff canteen was delicious

• 5Great day at the Dujiangyan Panda Base

  We booked a private trips with Westchinago for the Dujiangyan Panda Volunteering Experience (full day), which was fantastic. We were lucky to have Lynn as our tour guide. She was wonderful, giving us insights on what to expect for the day. She was very helpful making suggestions for dinner and other sites we might want to visit during our stay in Chengdu. Prior the tour, as soon as we made the booking, Lily reached out. She explained what she needed to book the tickets to the panda base, and a little before the trip, reached out again to confirm pickup time at our hotel. We were picked up at our hotel on time. There were two of us, and we were in a comfortable vehicle with a driver, in addition to Lynn. On our way to Dujiangyan, Lynn found out it was my birthday, and she took it upon herself to surprise me with a birthday cake at one of the local tea houses! On top of that, she also informed my hotel! Lily kindly volunteered to take many pictures of us at the panda base, and was flexible with our time there. This company genuinely cared about ensuring our experience would be memorable. We were so happy with the communication, execution of the itinerary, and our wonderful tour guide, Lynn. We highly recommend this company, and will work with them again on future trips to China. Thank you!

• 52 families volunteering with pandas

  The whole experience was great. I would highly suggest it for any family. We were 2 families, 9 in total, 4 of which were kids. Lily reached out to me when we booked the trip, to get the info she needed. And she reached out again the day before our excursion. Amber was our guide. She met us at our hotel at 7am. And was knowledgeable and chatty (which I like). This excursion is tied for the #1 thing we did in China, according to my kids. Loved the company.
