About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- mtnbikemania0 contributionsTwo day private tour in DunhuangSteven provide me with an excellent two day itinerary that allowed me to see everything that I wanted to in the Dunhuang area. He made the process easy and took all the headaches out of the logistics of getting from place to place and accessing the important things I wanted to. He is quite knowledgeable about the history of the area and I learned a lot from him during the two days.Written September 11, 2024
- mars640 contributionsExcellent Dunhuang Private TourMy wife and I had an incredible visit to Dunhuang with Steve at Silk Road Angel Tours. Steve organized our amazing two day private tour with visits to the sand dunes, camel rides, an excellent show, and the breathtaking Mogao Caves. He also booked a beautiful hotel for us near the sand dunes and treated us to some delicious meals. The booking process with Steve was very easy and he was very responsive to any inquires or requests.Written January 3, 2024
- 761billz0 contributionsGreat trip to DunHuangGreat trip and thanks for Steve and his good organizational schedule! We had an enjoyable travel experienceWritten November 28, 2023
- ronlY8796EM0 contributionsExcellent trip. I definitely will look into another China tour with Steven like the Zhangiajie, Jiuzhagou.The trip from Lanzhou to Dunhuang was absolutely rewarding, including views of Yellow River, stunning colorful Zhangye landscapes, good museum of history, multiple UNESCO sites like remains of the Great Wall, and amazing buddhism caves. The trip was well planned by Steven in terms of timing, hotel, meals, sites.Written November 23, 2023
- laifongl470 contributionsAn excellent trip, well organized, and enjoyable!This is very excellent trip. I enjoy it very much. The tour guide is excellent. He is very well organized, considerate, and makes everyone feel very comfortable.Written November 2, 2023
- D595QJdianat0 contributionsAn excellent travel company in Gansu ProvinceI enjoyed so much the trip to Gansu province with the Silk Road Angel Tour . They provided excellent service. I’m sure I will come again and have Steve help me to arrange the trip again.Written November 2, 2023
- 358frankiel0 contributionsSilk road tour organized by Steven Kang of Angel ToursThis 9 days Silk road tour organized by Steven Kang covering Lanzhou Zhangye Jiayuguan Dunhuang Urumqi and ended in Xian, Steven had done a very professional job and provided excellent service during the whole tour and all of us enjoyed with full satisfaction and we give Steven and Angel Tours 5 star rating on this tourWritten September 19, 2023
- rmg080570 contributionsA trip of a lifetime with Steven Kang from Silk Road Angel ToursThis trip of a lifetime started with three good decisions ... my interests pushed me to concentrate on two areas, Zhangye and Tianshui (driven largely by Danxia National GeoPark outside Zhangye and Maijishan Grottoes outside Tianshui). I decided to get a personal guide in order to make the most of limited time (6 days). From researching Tripadvisor I contacted Angel Tours by email and Steven answered almost immediately. This was the first time I had ever used a personal guide over multiple days - I can't recommend it enough - just the companionship and shared experience is sufficient, let alone the timesavings from being with someone who has all the answers and tricks at their fingertips. As Steven and I began to understand each other, I really got into the experience and the majesty and beauty of China began to grow on me. I found Steven to be an excellent professional, obviously very experienced and knowledgable (he is in a select group of about 1800 who have been awarded the Gold Medal for guiding in China). His relaxed manner and friendly nature made him more of a companion than a 'tour guide'. When planning the trip from New Zealand, Steven responded almost instantly, was amenable to change and always had some great suggestions up his sleeve. Meetup was easy-as, and his work associates were excellent (the driver who met me, off his own bat, brought his niece from Teacher's College to the airport to help me). I found the pricing for the guiding and driving very reasonable - the whole guiding/Angel Tours things was brilliant in a money/efficiency sense. Next year I am taking the family to the Dunhuang area and Steven and I have already started talking about his home town. Best of all, I fell in love with China, we are definitely sympatico ... thanks to Steven and Angel Tours for helping in that.Written August 2, 2023
- HKTravelers110 contributionsSilk Road Angel Tours arranged an unforgettable trip for usSteven Kang at Angel Tours arranged an incredible experience for us, identifying cultural and natural highlights along the Silk Road from Tianshui to Dunhuang. Steven was responsive from the start and engaged with us in a dialogue to identify what sights we wanted to see, what kind of hotels and restaurants we expected and how long we wanted to travel each day; he even helped us with our China visas. The transportation he arranged was excellent, the hotels met our standards (given our budget-- very good value) and he was knowledgeable about the region. During the over 1,500 km we traveled together (not including the train rides that he arranged separately for us), Steven was always responsive to our group's needs, was patient with us and engaging but not intrusive when we wanted to do our own things. I highly recommend him and his team if you want a special, customised, unforgettable experience on the Silk Road!Written April 22, 2023
- 302leight0 contributionsHighly professional and knowledgeable tour experienceI booked a 2 day solo tour of Dunhuang with Steven only to have my plans impacted by a recent COVID outbreak in the region. I cannot recommend this tour or his services more highly! In a rapidly changing situation, Steven helped me figure out plans for onward travel and even followed up to make sure I arrived safe and sound. Even though in the end I only got to see the city and its sights for one day, it was more than worth it for the insight, historical knowledge and convenience he brought to the experience. Mogao Caves were more than worth the trip out west!Written October 31, 2021
- 388leir0 contributionsAmazing traveling experienceThe natural landscape and cultural history of Northwest China are worth visiting. Every scenic sport is unique, especially the Rainbow Mountain in Zhangye, which is spectular and incredibleWritten July 21, 2021
- U538MRhelenh0 contributionsA wonderful Silk Road tripWe found Steven through a colleague who recently took a similar trip. We are a group of 6 people and we are very happy with the itinerary and service that Steven provided for us. He has been very professional, patient and proactive to our needs. He also has a wealth of knowledge about the region, so we learned a lot from him. The hotels we stayed in and the restaurants we dined in all met or exceeded our expectations. Steven is a trustworthy guide and you can definitely rely on his experience and professionalism to make your trip a memorable one.Written July 8, 2021
- Carnation610 contributionswonderful tripSteven has been a travel agent with plenty of experience in this region. During the 8-day-trip, he was not only arranged the intereting sites of visitings, but also took good care of clients needs. Therefore, we have learnt from him about Chinese history and culture. etc. We had tried delicious foods and beverages.Written July 3, 2021
- joerg1880 contributionsAmazing tour with so much history in it.There is no favorite spot to describe, the weather was just perfect, the sceneries are breath taking. The trip was well organized and well prepared. It was hot and for that you need to carry enough water, and sun blocker with you. The best beef noodles we ever had. We can only recommend the tour and with Steven you will have an experienced tour guide.Written June 25, 2021
- wisefrog460 contributionsA great in-depth tour of the Dunhuang regionSteven was an outstanding tour guide who greatly facilitated my exploration of Dunhuang and provided valuable historical and cultural context for the sites we explored. He and his driver were extremely professional, punctual, and polite. Since I always like to eat the local food wherever I'm visiting, Steven was also super helpful with taking me to great nearby restaurants and recommending the best dishes. I'd definitely recommend Steven to anyone who is interested in getting the most out of their Dunhuang experience.Written May 24, 2021
