The experience

How do you see a sprawling zoo without losing half the day to navigation? This tour picks you up from your Guangzhou hotel (or train station) in an air-conditioned car and brings you straight to Chimelong Safari Park with entrance already covered. Your local guide meets you at the gate and designs the route based on what interests you and how much time you want to spend at each stop.

The park is large, so you start with a tram ride to get your bearings, then follow your guide on foot to the animal enclosures. You'll see giant pandas, white tigers, koalas, elephants and giraffes. The guide knows which animals are most active at different times and can steer you toward the best viewing windows. You set the pace. There's no rushing through, and you can linger where you want. The tour lasts six to eight hours depending on how much ground you cover and which animals hold your attention.

When you're done, your guide takes you back to your hotel or to another downtown location you choose. Food and drinks aren't included in the base tour, though you can arrange that option at checkout if you prefer. If you're staying outside central Guangzhou (in areas like Nansha, Foshan or Zengcheng), let the operator know and they'll confirm whether pickup is available for your location.
