Voice of Travelers to Chengdu
Family Vacation in Chengdu
My name is Daniel. I had always wanted to take my family to Sichuan Wolong Giant Panda Natural Reserve in Chengdu and was saving for the trip for a while. I finally made a ticket booking with Qatar travelling to Chengdu and return ticket with KLM. The flight attendants were polite and attended to my every need especially since I had four children with me. Sichuan Wolong Giant Panda Natural Reserve was the highlight of our trip as the children were very excited to see the very rare pandas.
