DAY 1 Chengdu Arrival | Airport Transfer
Your tour guide will be waiting in the airport's arrivals hall with a nameplate and a welcoming smile. You will be transferred to your hotel by a private car and driver, and your tour guide will help you check in and ensure everything is okay at the hotel.
On your three-hour drive to Wolong, you'll take a reflective break at the 2008 Earthquake Memorial Site in the ruins of Xuankou Middle School.
Ganhaizi, located in the buffer zone of Wolong Nature Reserve, offers a chance to appreciate the natural scenery of the panda habitat. This less-known gem is perfect for photography enthusiasts or those who enjoy a leisure walk.
Arrive at Wolong Panda Center at 8:30 am for a day as a panda keeper.
In the morning, engage in activities from breaking bamboo to cleaning enclosures under the guidance of staff. You can watch a keeper feed pandas at a very close distance. Then take a break and tour around the panda center with your private guide, who is familiar with the base and knows a lot about pandas.
Then, have lunch in the canteen with the base stuff and enjoy a special documentary movie about a panda's life cycle.
In the afternoon, you will make cakes for the pandas and cut the bamboo leaves into pieces for the old pandas. At the end of the program, you will receive a panda keeper certificate.
After breakfast at the hotel, the tour wraps up with a transfer to the airport by private car and driver. Your tour guide will escort you to check-in and will wave goodbye at the security checkpoint. It's time to say goodbye to the pandas' home province.
