Fantastic 5.0
Had a great trip! Our guide, Xiao Hou, was knowledgeable and also managed to group and itinerary well. Just to note that those above 60 years old have their entrance fee waived, and are unable to ascend the hanging temples.

I'm a foreigner non-Chinese speaker, but I still booked this chinese language tour anyway because going to these places without a private car and as a solo traveler is too much of a hassle. The travel consultant, Maggie, was very polite and friendly. The planning went smooth and she answers all questions quickly. Meanwhile, our guide, 彭瑜晏, was very patient with me and assisted me all throughout the tour. She even managed to buy me tickets for entering the Hanging Temple. All in all, I enjoyed the tour and highly recommend it to everyone!

Transportation: The private tour for 3 people was a 5-seater SUV, which was very comfortable, and the vehicle was also very new! Itinerary: The itinerary was quite reasonable. Whenever there were changes or modifications needed along the way, the on-trip manager communicated and handled them promptly, making it a completely hassle-free experience! Accommodation: For our stay in Datong, we chose the Songtsam Hotel, and it was simply breathtaking!!!

A fascinating day trip with a great tour guide! We'd like to extend a heartfelt thank you once again to Alice, who guided us through the temple and grotto complex with such enthusiasm and information. The transfer to and from the train station also worked out very well! Responses on WeChat were always immediate, and all concerns were addressed! In short: highly recommended!

Great 4.0
Temple is spectacular but not much else to do there if you don’t get the climbing ticket (which is very limited) so how worth is it really depends how much time you have in Datong to accommodate all the driving around between the attractions.

Fantastic 5.0
my ticket was for 2:30pm but I managed to get in at 12:30pm with my passport (as per usual practice in China). good luck & I hope u get in too! there were still tour groups entering at 4:30+ so it probably closes quite late
