Excellent tour of Pandas at Qinling Four Treasures Park - Excellent tour with Michael, he was knowledgeable about pandas and other subjects. This activity was comprised of a pickup at my hotel with a private car, a long drive to the Qinling Four Treasures Park, ample time to view and photograph the many pandas, authentic Chinese lunch, a bonus trip to the Qinling Animal Park, and finally drop off at my hotel. Some might say it was pricey for what is essentially a visit to a zoo, however if you value your time and you value seeing pandas very close their natural habitat, then it is well worth it!

Unforgettable Panda Experience and Xi’an Highlights - We had an amazing day visiting the pandas with Cathy! She is such a warm, open-minded, and gentle person — truly passionate about pandas and other animals. From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable and welcomed. Cathy devoted her attention to our family, shared many beautiful details about her culture, and was genuinely curious about ours too. Her English is excellent, so we could easily talk about anything and everything throughout the day. The pace of the tour was relaxed and fully adapted to us — nothing felt rushed. Our driver was also very skilled.
After visiting the pandas, we all went for lunch together at a local restaurant serving traditional food. It was such a great idea — sometimes you don’t know which small local places are truly good, and they picked a wonderful one! The food was delicious, and our gide helped us choose the best dishes, explaining the ingredients and their connection to Chinese tradition.
The organization of the whole trip was perfect. The day before, they reconfirmed the meeting details, and everything ran on time and smoothly. A special thanks to Cathy for also giving us great tips for our evening in Xi’an — thanks to her, we managed to see the Pagoda and the Water Show in a short time!

Great experience to see the osndas - Our guide Lily Sun and driver were great. The weather was terrible but it didn’t dampen the experience. Lily sold very good English and was knowledgeable. We moved between enclosures at the various feeding times to make the most of seeing the pandas feeding and moving. The park is well set out and my understanding it will be the biggest panda breeding programme shortly in China. We opted for lunch at the local village which was delicious and fun. A great few hours either the pandas.

- This was our last day in China, so we went to see the Panda's.
Managed to see lots of Panda, was very warm so they were all in controlled temp rooms but it was so cool to see them

Xi’An Wild Panda Breeding & Protection centre is a must visit! - The Wild Panda Breeding & Protection Centre was amazing 🤩. So many pandas. Also the famous brown Panda. I took so many great photos and made great memories. The place also has other animals to see which is awesome.
Michael was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable and nice. I based my whole trip to China around this panda tour. I was the only person on the tour today, but Michael still ran it. Very greatful it wasn’t cancelled. Enjoyed every minute 😄.

Superb morning with the Pandas - We had a fantastic morning with the Pandas! Our guide Lilly made contact with us 2 days earlier to provide confirmation of pick up and time and she was waiting for us in our hotel lobby as promised. Our transfer van was clean, tidy and modern and Lilly gave us a running commentary of the history of Xi'an and the sanctuary we were headed to. Lilly's knowledge was second to none and she was such a lovely and helpful person. At the end of our tour we were taken back to Xi'an for lunch at a famous noodle house where we had the best noodle soup which I cannot stop thinking about now! I highly recommend this tour, getting up early was hard but so worth it as the Pandas were all out and about and we got to see them all, even the very shy brown panda Qizai! Due to the early time we did not have to fight any crowds and got view all the animals without a problem. Thank you to all.

Way too expensive for... - Way too expensive for what is advertised. This is not a research center. It is a zoo. Very sad. I saw pandas but in the condition I was told they would be in and they refused to acknowledge this. It is also over priced. The same tour was advertised for less than half the price. This is a scam be careful.
Michael was a wonderful tour guide. Look after me very well
