The location of the Nanjing Central Hotel is excellent. It's less than a 5-minute walk from the famous Deji Plaza, and also conveniently close to bus and subway stations. The hotel service is very attentive, and the rooms are spacious and clean. I was very satisfied with my 3-night stay. I will definitely choose this hotel again the next time I visit Nanjing! The hotel is near the famous Deji Plaza at Xinjiekou (5 minutes walk away). It is also conveniently located near multiple bus stops and Xinjiekou metro station. The service is impeccable with clean and big rooms. Will definitely recommend and book this hotel again the next time I'm back at Nanjing!

We had an amazing experience with our Klook private tour in Nanjing! Everything was well-organized, from meeting us at Nanjing South Railway Station to exploring the beautiful sights of the city. Our tour guide was exceptional, she was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly accommodating. What truly stood out was how our guide went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful day. They were patient, attentive to our needs, and always willing to help, making the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. We felt well taken care of throughout the tour. Thank you for making our visit to Nanjing so memorable. We highly recommend this private tour to anyone looking for a personalized and enjoyable experience!

Koreans don't often travel to Nanjing, but it was a city I really wanted to visit. Most Koreans tend to go to places like Shanghai or Chongqing, so it was quite difficult for me to visit the important attractions in Nanjing. Planning was tough, and I didn't even know what there was to see. However, by taking this tour, I was able to easily visit Nanjing's main tourist spots without complicated WeChat reservations or troublesome procedures. WeChat always asks for verification, which is hard for Koreans to do. In particular, I was able to understand the historical sites like the Presidential Palace, Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, Music Stage, and Meiling Palace thanks to the guide's kind explanations! (I'm so glad I booked this tour because each place has an admission process, and the tourist area is huge, so you need to take a bus to get around. I wouldn't have been able to do it alone.) Although I don't speak much Chinese, the guide made a great effort to communicate with me... 🥰 (They even translated things like whether I needed to use the restroom or when to gather. They also helped me order food, which I'm very grateful for...) For those planning a trip to Nanjing from Korea, I highly recommend visiting all the major attractions through this one-day tour! The itinerary is much more substantial and better than other products. ❤️

Our tour guide, Xuanxuan, planned the itinerary perfectly, and her explanations were incredibly lively and engaging. Many historical anecdotes came to life through her descriptions, making it much easier to understand the historical background and stories of the time. The tour was rich in content but never felt dry, and the pacing was excellent. Highly recommended!

This tour was one of the amazing tours that we had in China. Firstly, our family doesn’t speak Chinese at all. I booked the tour and tour provider suggested to cancel the tour for best experience when I booked the tour. I cancelled but there is no way I can go around China without taking tour. I requested to get English tour guide or bear minimum English. Even before the tour , I communicated again and again with your operators to make sure the dates are correct. Tour guide Xing and Menghai,they communicated with me with we chat all the time for itinerary and sightseeing. Even though we couldn’t communicate verbally with other tour members, we had a great time communicating with gestures and google translate. Hotels are very good along with first meal and last meal together arranged by tour were amazing. I would recommend going this tour to anyone if you really want to know true Chinese culture.

What to know before visiting Nanjing

What to do in Nanjing

Nanjing's top experiences on Klook are led by Tours, followed by Zoos & aquariums, Museums, Historical sites and Cultural experiences. The city's rhythm through the year shows a strong early-year surge with January identified as a peak month in Klook booking data, while autumn months dip much lower — September is the trough. That pattern means big visitor moments and lively guided outings cluster in winter and April, whereas quieter months offer a calmer pace and easier sightseeing. Use this to decide between atmosphere and crowd-free flexibility: choose whether you want bustling events or calmer exploration. Based on Klook booking data.

Best months to visit Nanjing

Klook booking data shows clear highs and lows: January is a peak demand month while September is the quietest month. Prices move across the year too — the typical paid price drifts up to roughly USD 23 in April and is often down around USD 9 in July and August. Demand and price sometimes align (January has high demand; April is both priciest and above-average demand), and sometimes they diverge (July can be inexpensive while demand is about average). For fewer crowds and lower prices, consider July–September; for peak-season atmosphere, plan for January or April.

Month Demand Level Typical Price
January Peak demand USD 9
February About average USD 9
March Quieter than usual USD 19
April Peak demand USD 23
May Busier than usual USD 22
June About average USD 21
July About average USD 9
August Very quiet USD 9
September Very quiet USD 13
October Very quiet USD 13
November Busier than usual USD 13
December Busier than usual USD 18

Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.

Where to stay in Nanjing

Klook booking data shows Xuanwu is the most affordable district with a typical nightly rate around USD 55, while Yuhuatai is the priciest at about USD 107, a gap of roughly 49% between them. More affordable districts like Xuanwu tend to suit budget-conscious travellers, families and those happy to trade luxury for savings and a local neighbourhood feel. The priciest end around Yuhuatai suits travellers seeking higher-end amenities and a more upscale hotel experience. Use these typical nightly rates from Klook booking data to match your comfort priorities and budget.

Tips for travellers

On average travellers book experiences about 10 days ahead, while the earliest planners often book around 22 days out, according to Klook booking data (platform aggregate). That means you can often stay flexible and book a few days before travel, but in peak months like January and April it's wise to plan earlier to secure popular tours. Book on Klook when you know your dates: the platform's historical booking patterns show when demand rises, so reserving ahead in busy months helps guarantee availability and preferred times. Practical planning and Klook booking data together make it easier to pick the right dates.
