Care for pandas on a guided tour in Wolong, Sichuan
By Victoria Bartle
Clean and feed panda cubs and care for their big, fluffy parents at the world's largest panda sanctuary in Wolong (meaning Sleeping Dragon), Sichuan.
The Wolong Panda Volunteer Work Tour is priced from $1280 a person and includes car transport and a private tour guide, accommodation and meals.
This is an exclusive guided tour just for you, rather than a group tour.
This means you can book to go at a time that suits you.
You'll return home with a certificate, verifying you as "a friend of the panda".
Return flights from New Zealand can be arranged separately, with fares starting at $1699 a person.
The tour leaves from Chengdu, about a two-hour drive from Wolong, and can be reached with direct flights from Hong Kong or Singapore.
