Wolong Panda Volunteer Day Tour

06:30: Pick-up from your hotel and drive to Wolong. The drive may take about 2 hours.

9:00am–10:00am: Clean the Panda Enclosures

Panda keepers need to supply fresh bamboo to the pandas each day but only 30% of which will be eaten and the rest bamboo wasted. You will need to sweep out the leftovers, replace it with fresh ones, and clean out the feces.

10:00am–11:00am: Take a Break and Tour around the Base

Have a relaxing walk in the well-paved base and listen to the legendary stories of these pandas. You will also have a chance to meet the naughty red pandas.

11:00am–11:30am Feed a Panda

Pandas are supplied with panda cakes, apples, and carrots four times a day. The panda keepers will show you how to feed a panda with your own hands at close proximity.

11:30am–13:00pm Have Lunch and Rest 

13:00pm–14:00pm Watch a Panda Movie (about 40 minutes)

You will see a special documentary about how the shy pandas mate, give birth, grow up, and are returned to the wild.

14:00pm–15:30pm More Cleaning and Food Making 

The bamboo you supplied in the morning has become dry by the afternoon. You will replace it with fresh ones. Feed the pandas with some panda cakes and apples. Having fed the pandas with panda cakes, you will learn to make a panda cake on your own. The ingredients will be prepared in advance. Get creative about the shapes of the cakes.

15:30pm–16:00pm Get Certificate. Drive Back 

The volunteer work ends and you will receive a certificate for this unforgettable day. Our guide and driver will escort you back to your hotel in Chengdu.
