FAQ

Common Questions

Is the Chimelong entry ticket included in this tour?

The park ticket is at your own cost, so you choose the zones and add-ons you want. Your guide helps you buy at the gate or in advance and works out the best route once you are inside, so the money goes to what your family wants to see.

How much walking does this tour involve?

Chimelong is large, so expect several km of movement across the day, partly on the drive-through safari and cable car. There are shaded rest areas and play points throughout, and your guide paces the day for children and older guests.

What age is this tour good for?

This day suits families with children of most ages, since pandas, giraffes, and big cats appeal to young and old. If you have toddlers, tell us in advance and your guide can shorten the walk and lean more on the tram and cable car.

When is the best time to see the pandas?

Pandas are most active in the morning and again later in the afternoon, so your guide plans the visit around those windows. Feeding times shift by season, and your guide checks the day’s schedule so you don’t miss them.

Do I need to book a specific entry date for this tour?

Chimelong tickets are date-specific, so we confirm your preferred day in advance. Once booked, your private car brings you from your Guangzhou hotel at a time that beats the biggest crowds at the gates.

Can we add shows or the water park to this tour?

This day centers on the safari park, so shows inside it are optional add-ons on your own. If you would rather combine zones or swap in the water park, tell us before booking and we can reshape this tour for your family.
