Panda tour

Jerry picked me up directly from my hotel and guided me through the panda reserve. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience both informative and fun. After visiting the panda reserve, he took me to a Buddhist nunnery, where he introduced me to the local culture and we enjoyed a vegetarian lunch together. I had an amazing time and can highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area.

Enjoyable trip to see the Giant panda with a personal tour guide. Fast track to see the giant pandas without to many crowds. We did go to the morning session.

Really cute tour

The driver and Guide were on time, really good tour! The Guide, Lance, was helpful because the breeding center is very big and he knew where to start to be able to see the pandas and not be so crowded. The nunnery is a very beautiful place.

A fantastic private panda experience!

I had a wonderful experience with Lance today visiting the famous pandas. The pandas were absolutely adorable, and the tour was perfectly timed to avoid the large crowds. Lance picked me up from the hotel on time in a very nice car with an excellent driver. We had a great conversation about China and Chinese culture. Lunch at the nunnery was also a lovely experience — it’s a beautiful and peaceful place tucked away in the middle of a busy town.
