Loved Chengdu

I went to the panda breeding base as well as the Daoist temple and irrigation system. Even though it was raining most of my visit, I really loved Chengdu. The city is so fun. My guide was great. She is especially proud of her city and loves to show it off, which just makes the tour so much more fun. If you are going to the temple, just be prepared for lots of uneven stone steps.

A dream come true

The BEST day! My tour guide, Qin, had all the inside tips to maximize my visit to the Panda Base. From timing the visit to using a certain entrance gate to the electric buggy ticket, every minute was planned to see the pandas. After the base, my private tour continued with some Chengdu highlights which were wonderful.

Joy is the best for visiting the Pandas 🐼

I had the absolute best day with Joy as my guide! She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made me feel completely at ease throughout the tour. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience — everything was so well organised and enjoyable. I’d highly recommend Joy to anyone looking for a fun, informative, and unforgettable tour.

Shine made our experience in Chengdu brilliant!

We did a tour of the Pandas and the city of Chengdu with Shine @ Catherine Lu tours. The pandas were amazing and Chengdu as a city is great to visit. What made this very special was Shine’s knowledge, demeanor and constant pursuit of the best experience for her guests. She took us to a place that was less crowded on the panda base and immediately got us started on a great sighting. As we progressed at the base and during the day she was very accommodating of our schedule and needs. She also worked with the driver to do a little photo shoot within Chengdu. Something that was memorable and never imposed on us. Was a courtesy! Highly recommend shine and Chengdu!

A lot of Pandas

Our guide was really knowledgable and knew her way around the park perfectly. She made sure we saw as much as possible ammount of pandas. We liked the interaction with our guide. The reason we give 4 as a rating is because the park is so busy, it’s really crowded. But that is an external factor. We liked the organisation our chauffeur and the guide. Top experience.
