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!

Outstanding - Such a great day for the whole family. Bella our guide was wonderful. She collected us on time from our hotel and took us to the Panda base where we saw lots of Pandas. The kids had time for souvenir shopping before we headed off to Leshan for lunch at a lovely restaurant and trip to see the giant Buddha. Bella was outstanding providing us with all the information we need for a great day out. Thank you Bella. Also thank you to our driver and Catherine for organising everything so impeccably.

Amazing full day tour to see Pandas & Leshan Budda - Amazing full day tour to see the Pandas and Leshan Budda, fully recommend it (consider 11-12h for the tour). The tour guide Lillian was great, giving very detailed explanations and driving me around in a nice Mercedes

Nice Chengdu tour! - We did a very nice visit to the Panda research Center with our guide Joe, and later a visit to the great buda of Leshan. Highly recommended to take full advantage of a day in Chengdu.

Pandas and a view on City Life - In the morning, we visited the Panda Breeding Centre where we saw cute, lazy pandas big and small. We would have wanted to spend more time here to explore and find more furry friends but we knew we had other places to visit. In the afternoon, we visited the People's Park and saw what it was like to live in Chengdu. Lots of interesting stories and things can be seen. It felt like an immersion into the city. Our tour guide Andy even took us to an interesting commercial street and local market. Very very interesting.

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.
