What to expect

  1. Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding (Panda Base)
    2h · Admission ticket included
    Arrive in the cool morning hours when pandas are most active—munching bamboo, tumbling over each other, and climbing trees. Your guide knows the best viewing spots, which enclosures have the newest cubs, and when feeding sessions happen. Walk bamboo-lined paths as your guide shares stories about panda conservation and the center's breeding program. Ample time to snap photos of impossibly cute babies in the nursery before the crowds arrive.
  2. Leshan Giant Buddha
    3h · Admission ticket included
    Experience the world's largest stone Buddha from two perspectives. First, enjoy a private river cruise along the Dadu River—the only way to capture the full 71-meter statue in a single frame. Your guide explains the hidden drainage system carved into the Buddha's hair and robes that has preserved it for over a millennium. Then, walk the cliff-side path to stand at the Buddha's feet where pilgrims have gathered for centuries. Your pre-booked ticket means no queuing at the ticket office.
