Fantastic 5.0
Our guide, Iris, was excellent—the best guide we could have asked for. She is very knowledgeable about the area, incredibly friendly, and dedicated to guiding us and explaining every aspect of the tour. She took us to a delicious place to eat, and the experience with her ensured that Dunhuang holds a special place in our hearts. We hope to see her again someday. I highly recommend this tour, and if you have her as your guide, your trip will be unforgettable!

our 6-day luxury tour is really a memorable one. 5-star accomodations, convenient locations, excellent hospitality and wonderful experience. Throughout the 6 days, we had a private driver, also our trip manager Ms. Fei-er, a capable lady who is knowledable, professional and understanding. She planned everthing well that made this route which supposed to be tiring, became more relaxing and enjoyable. Although the package did not cover most of the meals (except for the standard hotel breakfast), she made nice recommendations on food as well. cheap price, local taste, delicious food.

Great 4.0
amazing views and itinerary. hotels planned were good too. guide (曹师傅)was caring and ensured that we were taken cared of, he had to drive very far between places because this itinerary covers a lot in 5 days. would recommend this tour for those who want to cover the silk road with a personal guide!

The entire journey exploring the Hexi Corridor along the Silk Road went smoothly and was very well organized. Traveling through this unique side of China offered a completely different perspective rich in history, culture, and breathtaking landscapes. I highly recommend following the itinerary step by step, as each destination is carefully planned and adds meaningful context to the overall experience. It truly feels like walking through history. The driver also as our guide, was incredibly friendly, helpful, and attentive throughout the trip. Their support made the journey even more enjoyable and comfortable. Overall, this tour is highly recommended for anyone interested in discovering a lesser-known yet historically significant region of China.

What a wonderful tour! My wife and I visited the Grand Loop for the first time, and these are truly unique places: delightful salt lakes, dunes, yaks and other animals, colorful mountains, the opportunity to experience local traditions and art, and to try the national cuisine. Special thanks to the agency for organizing the trip, and to our guide and driver, who were always helpful in every way and took our interests into account. The only thing to keep in mind is the rather long distances between attractions. You should be prepared for this and be patient, because what you see will surely stay in your memory forever. Thank you!

What to know before visiting Jiuquan

Quick snapshot of Jiuquan and what to expect

Jiuquan draws most bookings for Tours, attraction passes and cultural experiences, and Klook data shows the city’s visitor rhythm swings through the year rather than staying steady. Demand peaks in May while activity drops off markedly in December, so the city alternates between busy spells and much quieter periods.

Best times to visit and how prices move

Klook booking data shows May as the busiest month and December as the quietest. Prices peak in July and then drift down through the autumn and into winter; by June prices are typically at their lowest compared with the priciest months. If you want smaller crowds and lower prices, aim for June or the quieter winter months; travellers seeking the liveliest atmosphere should visit in May. Note that demand and prices do not move perfectly together here: May is the busiest month but the very highest prices occur in July, so crowd levels and cost can diverge.

Tips for travellers from Hong Kong

Most visitors from Hong Kong typically book about three weeks ahead, with some locking in plans earlier, so a little planning helps—especially for travel in the busy May period. Many local tours and attraction options remain available at short notice, so flexible travellers can often book a few days out, but consider reserved booking on Klook if you need specific dates or want peace of mind.
