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!

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!

Hello, Master Lu! Our 5-day Dunhuang trip has come to an end. Thank you for your enthusiastic companionship, dedicated service, and thoughtful care over the past few days. Although our journey was tiring, you brought us peace of mind, comfort, and joy every step of the way! Thank you again, and I wish you a lifetime of peace and happiness! If we have the chance to visit Dunhuang again, I hope we can meet and travel together once more. Remember our agreement, and I wish you good luck!

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.

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!

Quick facts about Jiuquan
General info
What to know before visiting Jiuquan
What to do in Jiuquan
Jiuquan’s strongest draw is its range of Tours, followed by Attraction passes and Cultural experiences — these categories dominate bookings through the year. Demand rises and falls with a clear spring peak in May and a deep winter trough in December, so the city alternates between lively high-season outings and much quieter months. Use Klook booking data to time outdoor or guided tours for when demand matches the kind of trip you want. Decide whether you prefer peak-season buzz or quieter discovery is the key choice for planning a visit to Jiuquan.
Best months to visit Jiuquan
May stands out as the busiest month while December is the quietest, according to Klook booking data. Prices across the last 12 months show a strong summer spike in July and a low in June, so crowd levels and prices don’t always move together: May brings the heaviest demand but July is the priciest month on Klook. For lower prices and smaller crowds consider June or December; for peak-season atmosphere pick May.
| Month | Demand Level | Typical Price |
|---|---|---|
| January | Busier than usual | SGD 123 |
| February | Very quiet | SGD 77 |
| March | Quieter than usual | SGD 80 |
| April | About average | SGD 94 |
| May | Peak demand | SGD 104 |
| June | About average | SGD 53 |
| July | About average | SGD 423 |
| August | About average | SGD 141 |
| September | About average | SGD 103 |
| October | About average | SGD 143 |
| November | About average | SGD 103 |
| December | Very quiet | SGD 100 |
Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.
Tips for travellers from Singapore
Most travellers from Singapore tend to lock in experiences about three weeks ahead, with the earliest planners booking around five and a half weeks out, based on Klook booking data. That level of planning means you can be flexible for off-peak months but should book earlier for travel in May and July when demand or prices peak. Use Klook to compare typical prices and secure guided tours or attraction passes in advance — bookings show better availability when you plan ahead, yet last-minute options still exist within 5 days for flexible travellers.
