I'm very satisfied with this trip; Shanxi is definitely worth revisiting. The itinerary was well-planned and not too rushed. Tickets and guided tours were arranged in advance, which made everything stress-free and reassuring. Summer, our driver and guide Xiao Pan, and all the other staff members were excellent, enthusiastic, and responsible. It was a great experience.

The ticket is fine, but the problem is that to enter the temple, an additional ticket is required, which is not included in the original admission. Otherwise, it's good, no issues.

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.

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

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!

Quick facts about Datong
General info
What to know before visiting Datong
Quick snapshot of Datong and what to expect
Datong draws most Klook bookings for tours and attraction passes, with guided day trips and cultural sightseeing dominating interest. Demand peaks in June and summers overall, while winter months see much lighter booking activity, so the year has a clear high-season rhythm.
Best months to visit based on demand and prices
Klook data shows the busiest month is June, and the quietest month is February. Prices rise through spring into summer and peak around February in the pricing series, while December tends to be the most budget-friendly month according to Klook booking data. Travellers seeking lower prices and smaller crowds should consider December or the quieter shoulder months; those after a peak-season atmosphere will find June and the summer months liveliest. Note that price and demand don’t move perfectly together here: demand peaks in summer while the single priciest month in the price series appears in February.
Tips for travellers from Hong Kong
Most travellers book about nine days in advance on average, with some last-minute bookings possible a day or two out and early planners booking a couple of weeks ahead. If you’re from Hong Kong and plan to visit in June or the peak summer months, it’s sensible to plan and reserve tours earlier; for off-peak visits you can be more flexible and often book closer to your travel date on Klook.
