Great big park which is quite modern. Walkable by foot in about 3-4 hours from one end to the other. lots of different panda to see, and a selection of food options. just scan passport at gate and walk in

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing experience today! The whole day was very well organized and we got to see so many beautiful and special places. We absolutely loved Panda Valley, but we also really enjoyed the rest of the itinerary, especially seeing the beautiful “Blue Tears” in the evening. It made the whole experience even more special. Our guide was incredibly kind, helpful and attentive throughout the entire day. He took great care of us, helped us with everything we needed and made everything very easy despite the language barrier. We felt very comfortable with him from beginning to end. It was a fantastic and very complete experience, and definitely one of the highlights of our time in Chengdu. We would absolutely recommend it. Thank you so much for such a wonderful day! 🐼💙

This is our second time choosing Klook's custom tours, and this time we booked a fully customized 6-day trip around Chengdu. The recommended destinations and hotels were completely tailored to our requests. To avoid the biggest crowds during the National Day holiday, we chose Qionglai, a small city west of Chengdu, along with the must-see Dujiangyan Irrigation System and Mount Qingcheng. The overall itinerary was reasonably planned, and whenever we needed temporary adjustments during the trip, Ling'er's team in charge of the itinerary responded very promptly, making our travel experience exceptionally good. Driver Xia Heqian provided full chauffeured service throughout these six days. Driver Xia was extremely punctual and enthusiastic, the vehicle was clean and comfortable with a smooth ride, and he helped us optimize our sightseeing routes for high efficiency, avoiding traffic jams and crowds. He also took us to try very authentic and delicious local specialties, maximizing our travel experience.

The program was really well-structured and wonderful. I was excited from the morning just at the thought of seeing pandas, and our guide told us we were lucky—we even got to see a panda named Huahua and truly so many others. The panda base is quite large and a bit tiring, but the guide took great care of us, allowing us to have a wonderful time. Above all, thanks to our passionate and kind guide, the whole day's tour was happy. You're the absolute best, guide! 👍👍👍

our guide Terry was excellent, he was very kind and funny! would definitely recommend! please note that this is a short tour so if you want to see the famous panda Hua Hua, you’ll need to book a longer tour because there is a 2-3 hour wait to see Hua Hua.

Our tour guide was very thoughtful. Our accommodation was a bit far, outside the Third Ring Road, so they arranged for a driver to take us to the meeting point in the morning. My husband and I, our three-year-old child, and our elderly parents went together, and all the attractions were free for the child. However, I must mention that this itinerary involves a lot of walking, so it can be quite strenuous if you're not physically fit. Qingcheng Mountain in the morning was absolutely beautiful, truly living up to its reputation as the most serene mountain under heaven. We kept walking and walking, and eventually, the elderly members of our group stopped to rest near the summit, while we continued to the very top. After lunch, we proceeded to the Dujiangyan Irrigation System. This incredibly magnificent project was very enlightening, and we learned about the deeds of General Li Bing of the Qin Dynasty, which filled us with immense admiration for him. There was never a dull moment throughout the entire trip. If you're in good physical condition, I highly, highly recommend it!

Very enjoyable trip with our Guide Tao. Very knowledgeable about the Pandas at the Base. We also had a nice time at San Xing Dui. Lunch was surprisingly enjoyable at the price we paid.

the tour guide girl was really friendly and attentive with everyone. She explained things to us where to go, what to do very clear. She has such excellent and extensive knowledge of the panda camp was impressed me. Also she taking care of the ones need assistance with traveling. She pre booked for lunch for the travellers which made us for the food as soon as we arrived. Amazing trip. highly recommended this trip.
