5.00Amazing tour in Dunhuang. Started in the morning with camel riding on Mingsha Mountain, and then a beautiful walk through the dunes to see the Crescent Lake. After lunch, the Mogao Grottoes were also stunning to see. My tour guide, Andy, was super helpful, picking me up from the railway station, helping me check in to my hotel, skipping long ticket lines everywhere we went. It would have been near impossible to see so many beautiful things in Dunhuang without him!
Wonderful tour!
