Dujiangyan Panda Base Tours and Tickets

This panda volunteering experience was truly unforgettable and easily one of the highlights of our trip. From start to finish, everything was exceptionally well organized, meaningful, and deeply rewarding. Being so close to the pandas and learning about their care, conservation, and daily routines was both humbling and incredibly inspiring. A very special mention goes to our guide, Keira. She was absolutely fantastic - warm, cheerful, and genuinely passionate about what she does. From the very first moment, she made us feel comfortable, welcomed, and excited for the day ahead. Her positive energy was contagious, her explanations were clear and engaging, and she was always attentive to everyone in the group. It truly felt like we were spending the day with a friend rather than just being guided through an activity. Keira’s kindness, enthusiasm, and professionalism made a huge difference to the overall experience. We genuinely enjoyed her company and could not have asked for a better guide. Thanks to her, the day felt not only educational, but also joyful and personal. Highly, highly recommended - especially if you’re lucky enough to have Keira as your guide. This is an experience we’ll remember for a very long time. 🐼💚

We had Robert as our guide tour and he was amazing. Super friendly, very well knowledgeable and patient. We customized our entire tour to our preferences. He always asked us if we need something or had any questions. The experience was amazing to be so close to so many pandas and to learn many things about it. It's a tour I highly recommend and if you are lucky to get Robert, you won't be disappointed.

Weaver is excellent English speaking guide with vast history knowledge and love for homeland. Dujianyang in autumn is perfect to see pandas eat and eat in various ways. Mountain where Taoism started is a nice hybrid hike, boat and cable car ride to the peak. Recommend fitness level of someone capable of climbing 5 flights of stairs or running an oval once. Will return and try 4 hour hike option and see irrigation marvel

The vehicle was very comfortable to ride. They were great at communicating before the experience and arrived on time to take us for the day. Our guide was very sweet and super knowledgeable about the pandas and the habitat. Her English was excellent. We were well taken care of and enjoyed the day very much ! Don’t worry you do not work but have a lot of fun !

Unfortunately we were unable to visit in the morning as booked because of overcrowding. The pandas are not as active in the afternoon and it was incredibly hot. However, our guide Aimee did a great job of making sure we saw the babies, the cubs, and the older pandas. It's a beautiful area and the pandas were adorable. We also learned a lot from Aimee about the area and city as a whole. Pickup from our hotel was seamless and overall a fantastic afternoon.

I recently went on a trip that was absolutely fantastic. We had a wonderful time in panda base. Our guide was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making the experience even more enjoyable. Every moment was filled with excitement and joy, and I can’t wait to go on another adventure like this!

Overall a great experience and we enjoyed it very much. Note that there is little in terms of getting closer to the pandas than any normal visitor to the panda base. You need to want to do the work to feel like you’ve contributed to the pandas. We walked around the Dujiangyan with a member of staff who was very passionate and informative about the individual pandas and their lives. The guide was great at taking photos of us and sending them over. The company was excellent in getting in touch in advance and was very flexible with planning. The car journey was very comfortable and we were picked up at the hotel door as planned. It is a high price point so make sure you’re keen and get the most from the day. The guide was very helpful in this regard. The price seems to reflect how well organised the guide company is and their ability to flex and deliver on their commitments.

All I can say is WOW. I originally had booked with another company, but they canceled my reservation without explanation, which prompted me to book this tour. I must say that I could not be happier with the experience. We were picked up at our hotel on time in a Mercedes sedan, so it felt luxurious. Andie was our tour guide, and she was terrific. She spoke perfect English and was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and culture of Chengdu—and pandas! She loved the pandas as much as my daughter and knew many interesting facts. The drive itself felt fast because the conversations were engaging. We loved prepping food for the pandas and watching them feed up close—so close that I was an arm's length away from the panda. The documentary we had to watch was interesting, and it was amazing to see just how much the pandas are loved and well cared for. To top it all off, Andie and our driver went above and beyond on our way back to Chengdu. My daughter was obsessed about these egg crepes, which are well-known street foods that we had learned about from YouTube. Andie made sure that we found a vendor that was one of the best in the city. Needless to say, my 13-year old was super happy. I highly recommend this tour company and our guide Andie. It was an unforgettable experience.
