About this activity

Fly privately from Shanghai to Chengdu for an immersive day at the renowned Giant Panda Breeding Base, where you'll observe these endangered animals in a dedicated conservation facility. This all-inclusive tour combines round-trip air travel with guided panda encounters and optional cultural stops, returning you to your Shanghai hotel by evening.

Chengdu Giant Panda Breeding Base is a well-known site for the cute pandas. This private day tour will let you take round-way flight from Shanghai to Chengdu to view these cute pandas. Time permits, you can select other attraction in Chengdu to visit as well from Kuai & Zhai Alleys, Wenshu Temple, or Qingyang Temple. Shanghai centrally located hotel pickup and drop off are included. Please note this is a very long day tour.

Insider tips

  • ★Arrive at the panda base early (typically 8–9 AM) when pandas are most active and feeding—they rest during midday heat

  • ★If time permits, Wenshu Temple is quieter and more atmospheric than Qingyang Temple—better for photography
  • ★Bring a light jacket; Chengdu mornings can be cool despite afternoon warmth

  • •Hotel pickup and drop-off cover central Shanghai locations; confirm your hotel is in the service area when booking
