Our Story and Special Thanks 
 
We created the brand name AbsolutePanda from the following considerations:
Firstly, we love pandas like many panda fans in the world. We work our utmost to provide the absolute best travel experiences for all travelers who love pandas. Secondly, we like the black and white color of pandas. It coincides with Chinese Yin and Yang, which presents the philosophical basis in Chinese culture. Thirdly, we hope our clients enjoy their trips as much as pandas enjoy their lives. The company was founded jointly by Philip He and Lily Guo. It was started as a mom-and-pop business and has grown into a company specializing in nature trips showing the beauty of panda habitats and their neighboring areas. Though we are a small company, we are grateful for every thing we have received and hope to give back by crafting trips which show the beauty of nature, culture and people. Since the establishment of the company, we have been extremely lucky that we have received enormous amount of trust and support from our dear clients and dedicated team members. AbsolutePanda would have never become what it is now without the generous support from our clients and partners since 2003. We want to express our heartfelt thanks to all those people who have helped us during the past years. While it would be impossible to thank all the friends who have contributed to our growth and success, here we picks some of them who have made tremendous contributions to us. They represent all those people who have given their precious trust and generous trust in the past years:
 
• Rick Kattelmann: Rick learned about our company through a photography friend of Philip in 2010 and has been with us for at least seven trips since then. Rick has helped us a lot with proof-reading, website structure, and business philosophy.
 
• Steve Ziman: Steve also first traveled with us in 2010 and has joined our trips for several times. He has been instrumental in helping us create a website that is accommodating to our foreign clients. Thanks to his insight that we have been able to reach global travelers.
 
• Bradley Joseph: A persistent and passionate bear expert from Alaska, the US. We got to know Brad from co-working on a trip organized by one of the foremost travel companies in the world. He is the most devoted tour leader we have ever worked with. He has taught us a great deal on how to provide the best services in the wild and how to appreciate nature.
 
• Rod Hamilton: Rod is the owner of a consultant company in the UK who we met during a giant panda tracking trip in Sichuan. Rod imparted the advice that was very crucial to help us to establish our brand on TripAdvisor. Now people find us from the recommendation of our TripAdvisor page.
 
Due to limitation of space here, we could not list all the people who have supported us in the past years and can only post very few of them to represent all the people who have trusted and supported us in the past years. We could not have done it without the support we’ve received from all of our guests and friends.
We are honored to express our sincere thanks here. Thank you for all.
