About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Redi4anotheradventur0 contributionsJust amazing, a bucket list experience.I booked two days with Nancy and it was by far the best way to see Datong. Datong is a hidden gem, with almost no western tourists. But in July / August, there are thousands of Chinese tourists. The key attractions are the Hanging Monastery and the Grottos. The Hanging Monastery is definitely a bucket list destination. Nancy was great we chatted easily all day about everything and anything. Without her the detail and context of the Monastery would have been lost. The next day, I left the itinerary completely up to her. We went 45 minutes out of town to see the forgotten sections of the Great Wall - an earth mound in a corn field. We then dropped in completely unannounced on a couple living in a cave house in the village. They were so welcoming an gave us fresh vegetables from their garden. Later we visited an abandoned military village. The amazing thing here was the tiles on the wall depicting the one child policy and the consequences of more than one. Nancy is a terrific guide and a wealth of information. I thoroughly enjoyed my two days with her, learning so much about Datong and China in general.Written September 16, 2024
- rmc13120 contributionsBest experience in DatongWe only have good words for Nancy and her drivers. They were very professional, pick us up at the exact time, good driving experience (not always is like this in China) and even, she solves a big problem we had with the cancellation of a train, and in few hours, se gave us an alternative with a good driver. So.... TOTALLY RECOMMENDED!!Written August 14, 2024
- MarcosB29370 contributionsBest decision ever for our China tripBest experience ever; we booked several transfers and ticket purchases for attractions and spectacles with Nancy in different cities (Beijing, Datong, Xi’an, Chengdu) and the experience couldn’t be better. She pays attention to details and she goes the extra mile by giving extra advise and tips; apart from giving amazing support. Don’t go to China without Nancy organizing your trip, best decision ever!Written July 23, 2024
- MarioGlen0 contributionsVery informative and nice day with SaraDid a day tour with one of the guids of Nancy, her name was Sara. Everything was organized very well. Sara knew a lot and was very happy to share all her knowledge of waht we visited. First we went to the Yungang Grottoes. After this we went to see the Hanging temples. We had some time left, so she wanted to show us another location. But we were tired and wanted to have a rest. But to offer this to us was very nice.Written May 19, 2024

- siauweic0 contributionsDatong One Day TourOur driver 小郭 was fantastic! Despite being just a self-guided tour, our driver was very knowledgeable and shared history of the sights and attractions with us as well. Highly recommend this tour. Also thanks to Nancy for all the arrangement and coordination and for making our whole trip so seamless!Written April 15, 2024
- Bolno0 contributionsA must tour experienceExcellent easy way to see sites, Nancy provides a full insight to the sites. Transport is comfortable and modern. The Grottos Buddhist caves are the most impressiveWritten March 27, 2024
- martingM7114ZH0 contributionsGreat tour with a great guide :)Nancy is a great guide, professional and friendly. She speaks fluent English, we learned lots of things about the places we visited and about the local culture that we would have missed if it wasn’t for her. Both the Hanging Temple and the Grottoes are truly worth visiting, pictures don’t really reflect how beautiful or magnificent they are. We stopped for lunch at a local restaurant (not the typical overpriced restaurant for tourists). We had a great time!! We recommend it 100% 😊Written March 20, 2024
- Alexandros L0 contributionsGreat way to explore Datong’s unique attractionsWonderful guided tour of Datong main attractions, both of which were spectacular and unique to see and learn about. Nancy was very friendly, spoke good English and was very thoughtful to tailor the trip to our needs. The car was also very nice and spacious. Definitely recommend!Written January 12, 2024
- Connector598015433080 contributionsGreat ExperienceBoth the Yungang Grottoes and the Hanging monastery were beautiful and our guide Nancy, who could speak great English, was very informative. Highly recommended!Written September 18, 2023
- dimperioamb0 contributionsVery helpful, nice and instructive guideGreat guide, finally the very first person after 1 week in China with whom we could practically communicate in English. We were lucky with the queueWritten August 24, 2023
- lindacT4955GJ0 contributionsAmazing Datong and Nancy TourWe engaged Nancy for a private tour prior to travelling to China. Nancy was fantastic to deal with, she went above and beyond what we initially engaged her for. For example she assisted us with our travelling plans when we had issues with our train.She organised and paid (in the interim) for ticket changes and helped us with language translations. Nancy was a fantastic tour guide, professional, incredibly helpful, sincere and honest. We do not hesitate to recommend her,Written January 25, 2020
- Andres J0 contributionsIf you want personalised service, this is your tourShe picks you up at whatever time your arrive by train or plane. She helps you to book an hotel for hours to rest between trains. She go with you on a van sharing with maximum 9 pax and at the best times to avoid queues. Also bring the group to a cheap typical restaurant. Safer than try to find a taxi and with fluent englishWritten December 27, 2019

Hi Nancy, I have several questions for you, thanks for your help. You get great reviews for your Datong tours; is this a new tour service in Longmen? Who will be the tour guides? Does the visit to Shaolin Temple include a Kung Fu performance? I'm taking a fast train from Beijing and would like to stay in the center of Longmen - could you let me know which is the right station name? Finally, what time does the tour finish; I'm looking to take train to Xian later that evening. Thanks, Laura
