Private Day Tour with Panda Holding at Dujiangyan Panda Base and Wuhou Temple

About this activity
Notes: the Panda Holding Program was suspended recently. The panda volunteer program is still available. 
Around 8:00am, your tour guide and driver will pick you up from your centrally located hotel in Chengdu and drive to the Dujiangyan Panda Base. Upon arrival at the destination, you go through sign-up and check-in process with the assistance of your guide. After picking up your uniform and gloves, your guide will introduce you to the professional panda keepers, after which you can meet the pandas.
To make your experience even more magical and memorable, get to hold a giant panda and have your photo taken for an additional donation. The intimate encounter will be closely supervised by trained staff and will last about one minute (the time is based on Panda Base's rule). The money raised from this activity will help the non-profit center continue its vital research into this endangered species. After spending some time at the panda base, you will be driven back to Chengdu.
In the afternoon, visit Wuhou Temple, a temple in memory of Zhuge Liang who was the most famous military strategist in the Three Kingdoms period of Chinese history. Surrounded by old cypresses and classical red walls, the temple has an atmosphere of nostalgia. Then, visit Jinli ancient street, one of the oldest streets where you can appreciate the artifacts and try local snacks (at your own expense). The elegant style of architecture shows you what the original Sichuan looks like during the Qing Dynasty.
Upon completion of the tour, your will be transferred back to your hotel in downtown Chengdu.
Please note: the donation program allows you to take pictures with a panda seated next to you or in your arms for about one minute. The donation is included. Experience is limited to 30 tourists per day and it is recommended to book in advance.
