What is the best way to get from Jiayuguan City to the pass and other sites? Can anyone recommend a good tour company in Jiayuguan? Is an afternoon enough time, or should one plan a full day trip?

Hi,there
You can either take a taxi or take bus no.4 from urban area to Jiayuguan Pass. It takes about 20mins to get there. One afternoon will be enough for it. And there are many tour agents that arrange one day trip. But i suggest you do it by yourself.
