Panda lovers must visit Wolong Panda Base! I joined the volunteer tour alone and was guided by Sunny who is the same age as my sister. She is very friendly and I had fun chatting with her while the tour. At the panda base, I really enjoyed cleaning the giant panda’s house, feeding the panda, and seeing the adorable pandas! Especially the twins with their mother and the 1 year old pandas living together is what I was dreaming to see in my life. I love that the place was less touristy and you don’t need to squish others to see the pandas. If you are visiting Chengdu, I think Wolong panda base is the best place to visit and if you have a chance, you should join the volunteer program too. You will never get a chance to feed panda in your country I guess! Also you can get a very nice volunteer certificate after completing the program. If I had a chance to come back to Chengdu, I will definitely join this tour again. Thank you very much My Panda Tour.I was directed to Alvin, the owner of My Panda Tour via several members of a private Facebook group dedicated to the DC pandas I’m a member of.

I was directed to Alvin, the owner of My Panda Tour via several members of a private Facebook group dedicated to the DC pandas I’m a member of. Upon reaching out, Alvin instantly emailed back. After a few email exchanges he hand-tailored a three-day tour that including volunteering, feedings, visits with Bei Bei, Bao Bao and Tai Shan, as well as other panda related things I wanted to experience. In addition meals, as well as transportation to/from the airport were included. My guide Rita was the best. She was extremely knowledgeable in all-thing pandas, Chengdu, and Chinese culture. Incredibly cheerful she answered all my questions. Which were many and often. My driver was wonderful too. Always on time and incredible. Being so close to these magnificent creatures was beyond incredible. In addition to knowing the bases are research and breeding centers helping to repopulate the Giant Panda and get them back into the wild. From start to finish every detail was attended to, every aspect seamless. The entire experience was exceptional. I’m forever grateful to Alvin has his team. If you’re planning on visiting Chengdu to see the pandas, My Panda Tour is an absolute must.Memorable day at the panda sanctuary. You could spend endless hours just watching them.
