So glad we went with the Private English speaking Guide Tour, it is efficient, time saving and didn't missed a thing. I'd also make changes on pickup location and every time I received a reply promptly.

Jason was the best guide! He was very outgoing and friendly, and also helped us when we got lost getting into the city! He also knew a lot about the pandas we were seeing and knew the best spots to see the pandas, we saw baby pandas!!!! Jason’s English was great and clear. I would recommend this tour and ask for Jason!!

Jason was a great guide and was very outgoing. He showed us all the best spots to see the pandas. We even got to saw the baby pandas out and about. We also had difficulty getting to our hotel to our agreed pick up point but he was very understanding and picked us up at the area we got lost in when we dropped him a pin! I would recommend this tour and ask for Jason!!

Wonderful tour! It was a truly enriching experience, where we learned a little about giant pandas. Our guide, Perry, was perfect. He was attentive and very helpful. He also gave us the opportunity to learn more about China, its culture, and interesting facts about this beautiful country.

We visited the Chengdu research base for the giant panda breeding with Perry. The venue is a great opportunity to get up close to the amazing Pandas with over 200 on site you are bound to get a great view. Perry arranged for an early am start to coincide with their feeding times so we had an excellent view. Having an experienced guide helps avoid long queues and also offers great insight to the history and individual details on the bears - definitely recommend and also ask for Perry

Great tour and a great way to see the most Panda's. Our guide Wells new exactly where to go and when to go there to get the best views of the Panda's. Tour allowed our family to interact and view the center at our own pace while making sure we saw the most Panda's. Our tour guide was great, excellent English and he made sure we were in the right spot, he blended in with our family perfectly.

I visited Panda Base with Perry as my guide in September 2025. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the research facility, he knows how to navigate around crowds and to minimize excess walking or time-wasting, and he even knows many of the pandas by name, their ages, even knowing their habits and mannerisms. Perry’s English is top-notch, so if you have any concerns if you might have a language barrier, you shouldn’t with him. I highly recommend!

Jason was an excellent tour guide. I was able to get some wonderful photos of the baby, teenager, and adult pandas. I had a great experience and look forward to returning in the future.
