We had an excellent experience. Ms Yao and Ms Zhang were kind, patient, hospitable, knowledgeable and attentive to detail, willing to go out of their way to make the trip as comfortable as possible. We recommend taking a guide to go to both landmarks, otherwise its a bit difficult to manage to see both in one day. Ms Zhang's explanations and commentary on the history of Datong, the Hengshang Hanging temple and the Yunggang Grottes made the trip so much meaningful and interesting. Also, we were picked up at the station and dropped off at the hotel after the tour, and a stop to have lunch was included, overall the transport was very convenient. We are thankful for this amazing experience, highly recommended.

Our guide Emily was superb. She was excited about what she was telling us, happy to be guiding us and went above and beyond for us. Our driver was also great! We left a wallet in the car and he drove it to the next town and met us at the hotel

Everything was very well organized, even though I booked less than 24 hours in advance. Very friendly and competent guide. All in all, a great experience.
