Ningxia 5 Days 4 Nights | 2 Nights Desert Resort Hotel to Lie Back and Watch the Starry Sky | Five Lakes Off-Road / Winter Limited Free Choice

This trip was incredibly enjoyable and satisfying! Our driver and guide, Master Wang Tielei, was very conscientious and responsible, especially since we were traveling with two small children. His care and assistance were incredibly thoughtful and thorough, allowing us to explore with peace of mind, and everything went smoothly and safely! The itinerary and hotels arranged were excellent; there was no need to wake up early or rush, and the pace was tailored to our needs. The Five Lakes Crossing is a must-try; the feeling of speeding through the desert is thrilling and unforgettable, and we even got drone footage, which made for fantastic photos! Staying at the Star Hotel for two nights at this price was an incredible value and truly worth it. Combined with the nearby Shapotou Scenic Area, it's like a huge amusement park for both adults and children, where you can play all day. The experience was fantastic! We'll definitely come again.

During our trip to Ningxia, our guide and driver, Mr. Wang, was incredibly attentive and thoughtful. He always had warm water available in the car and even brought adorable little gift bags for the children. He explained the local customs and culture along the way and adjusted and optimized the itinerary in advance based on our flight arrival time, making our sightseeing time at each location more suitable. Shapotou in Zhongwei was magnificent, and the teacher arranged at the Western Xia Mausoleum Museum in Yinchuan provided a very detailed explanation. Helan Mountain was majestic and boundless, with ancient rock paintings and an ice peak festival... Both the elderly and children had a great time on this trip, filled with beautiful scenery and warmth. The Northwest is definitely worth visiting again!

Here's a Ningxia travel review suitable for posting on WeChat Moments/review platforms, incorporating the Tengger Desert, Stargazing Hotel, and Shapotou, creating a full sense of atmosphere: My Ningxia trip has come to a successful end. The Tengger Desert, Stargazing Hotel, and Shapotou all exceeded expectations. The Stargazing Hotel lives up to its name; during the day, you see sand out the window, and at night, you look up at the stars – romantic and healing. Shapotou combines the desert, the Yellow River, and an oasis, offering sand sliding, off-roading, and camel riding – so much fun. This trip offers the vastness of the wilderness, the romance of the starry sky, and the warmth of everyday life, making it worth a special trip. This trip to Ningxia not only had stunning scenery, but also the driver and tour guide service and itinerary arrangements were particularly comfortable. I must give them a good compliment! They were professional and considerate, providing detailed and thoughtful explanations, arranging everything clearly from the history of the attractions to travel tips. They were patient and responsible throughout the entire process, giving a full sense of security. The driver was steady, familiar with the road conditions, punctual for pick-ups and drop-offs, and ensured safe driving, making the journey comfortable and worry-free. The itinerary planning was reasonable and compact, not rushed or hurried, with just the right pace, allowing for free time to experience things without having to bother with making your own guides. Overall, it was smooth and comfortable, making for an amazing travel experience!

This trip to Yinchuan, Ningxia, exceeded all expectations! The itinerary was well-paced, with stunning views of the desert and Yellow River at Shapotou. Every essential attraction was carefully connected, and there was no forced shopping, allowing for a worry-free and enjoyable experience. Special praise for our guide and driver, Ms. Xu. Her professional knowledge was solid, her explanations were lively and interesting, and she eloquently shared the customs and culture of Ningxia. She attentively took care of every member of the group throughout the trip, patiently answered various questions, and calmly handled unexpected situations, which made us feel very secure 👍. The accommodations 😴 were also very well arranged. The Diamond Hotel and Tengol Hotel in Shapotou, as well as the hotels in Yinchuan city center, were comfortable and offered excellent service, providing ample relief from travel fatigue. This was a worry-free and delightful journey, a genuine five-star recommendation!

Accommodation: The hotel rooms in Yinchuan city are large, and there are partitions between the bathroom/shower and the beds, which is great for families with young children who need to put them to sleep; the overall service at the Starry Hotel is very good, as it should be for the price, and they provide free sandboards and sand toys, so the kids don't want to leave at all. Cons: The hotels in Yinchuan city have a relatively small number of bed rails; the Starry Hotel restaurant is too warm, and it's a bit of a hassle to put on and take off clothes when going in and out. Driver/Guide: Our driver/guide, Kang Ge, was excellent and very patient with the children, who all loved following him around; he was also very thoughtful and communicated promptly. The tour guide at the Western Xia Mausoleum was very professional and took care of everything. Attractions: Winter is the off-season, and most of the restaurants in the Shapotou Scenic Area are closed, with only snacks available, so bring plenty of snacks if you have young children. Itinerary: The itinerary is well-arranged and suitable for families with children.

This trip was very satisfying! Thank you to the tour guide, Sister Xu, for accompanying us along the way! Thank you to the butler for the careful arrangements! My child and I are very happy 😃

【Amazing Ningxia Trip】 The scenery is beautiful, the food is delicious, and the people are genuine. This trip was so worth it! Riding camels in the desert was a fantastic experience. Especially the local beef and mutton, unforgettable~. The driver, Master Huang, is also a great person with excellent driving skills. Highly recommend it to everyone!

Thank you for your company along the way. This trip was our family's first time in Ningxia, and in just a few days we fully felt the simple kindness of the people of Ningxia. Master Ma introduced us to a lot of local customs and practices, patiently waited for us on every trip, and came early to pick us up and take us everywhere, doing his best to give us the best arrangements.

The kids had a great time, giving the driver uncle 100 stars. The entire trip was highly flexible, with plenty of time to play, experiencing both sand and a winter wonderland, and enjoying delicious food.
