Five ways to visit

Ratings and review counts come from Civitatis and were read on 5 Nov 2026. They are listed from most to least reviewed, and a high score with only a few reviews is a weaker signal than a slightly lower score with hundreds. Check the date, meeting point and guide language on the activity page before you book.

Ticket only or tour

The ticket listing has no guide and no duration; it is entry only, so plan your own transport. The tours range from 8 hours (private city and base) to 12 hours (group Leshan combination), with an English-speaking guide.

Adding Leshan

Two listings pair the panda base with the Leshan Giant Buddha, one as a group trip and one as a private trip. Pick a combination only if you can spare a full day.
