We visited two world‑heritage sites, Shaolin Temple and Longmen Grottoes, in one day. The schedule was well‑arranged and hassle‑free. The Kongfu show at Shaolin Temple was spectacular. The grand Lushena Buddha at Longmen Grottoes is breathtaking. Our guide gave vivid explanations without rushing us. Highly recommended

It was a wonderful experience. The show was entertaining, with beautiful costumes that were a delight to watch. The food was very delicious, the service was attentive throughout, and it was well worth the price.

September 15th was a very worthwhile and joyful day trip! The itinerary timing was well-managed, and the self-paid Luoyang water banquet at noon was a rare and unique experience that was quite good. Tour guide Li Junpeng explained things very diligently and took great care of everyone. It has been a long time since we encountered such an enthusiastic and dedicated tour guide. Thumbs up!

Although there were communication issues due to language barriers, fortunately, one of our group members spoke English, so there were no major problems. When booking, it would be wise to confirm the local guide's language. Also, it seems there are communication issues with Klook. There's no channel to ask questions about booked tours before or during the trip. In my case, I was confused and even flustered because we toured places other than those I had booked. Fortunately, the guide took good care of us, and we had a smooth trip. I recommend it.

Zhengzhou Shaolin Temple & Longmen Grottoes Day Tour Review
This trip was a day tour exploring the Shaolin Temple and Longmen Grottoes, representative attractions of Henan Province, China. It was a meaningful time to experience China's history, Buddhist culture, and traditional martial arts all at once.
It was a very satisfying itinerary, allowing me to experience the traditional martial arts and history of the Shaolin Temple alongside the grand Buddhist art of the Longmen Grottoes in a single day. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to deeply experience Chinese history and culture.
I would like to thank our guide, Mr./Ms. Xiao, for providing great guidance and making the trip enjoyable. It was a meaningful day that I recommend to anyone planning a trip to Zhengzhou.

General info
What to know before visiting Luoyang
What to do in Luoyang year-round
Luoyang's strongest draws are city Tours and Attraction passes, with Tours leading bookings and attraction passes also popular according to Klook booking data. The city cycles between a lively spring and a much quieter autumn: activity and visits peak in May and remain high through June, while October is the trough of the year. Expect the high season to bring more guided Tours and fuller attraction passes, and quieter months to suit slower sightseeing. For travellers choosing when to visit, the key decision is whether you prefer peak-season atmosphere or smaller crowds — Klook booking data shows both patterns clearly.
Best months to visit Luoyang
May is the city's busiest month while October is the quietest, and prices move differently across the year: prices dip in August and spike in March, so peak crowds and peak prices do not always coincide. That means travellers seeking lower prices and smaller crowds should favour late summer, while those after the peak-season atmosphere will find May and the surrounding spring months busiest.
| Month | Demand Level | Typical Price |
|---|---|---|
| January | About average | USD 28 |
| February | Quieter than usual | USD 32 |
| March | Peak demand | USD 90 |
| April | Peak demand | USD 46 |
| May | Peak demand | USD 38 |
| June | Peak demand | USD 29 |
| July | About average | USD 63 |
| August | About average | USD 27 |
| September | Quieter than usual | USD 38 |
| October | Quieter than usual | USD 41 |
| November | Quieter than usual | USD 38 |
| December | Quieter than usual | USD 31 |
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 by typical hotel price
Hotel prices in Luoyang vary by district: Laocheng is the most affordable district with a typical nightly rate around USD 22, while Xigong is the priciest with a typical nightly rate around USD 72 — a gap of roughly 69% between them, per Klook booking data. Budget-minded travellers and those happy to prioritise savings tend to prefer Laocheng, while travellers who want more premium hotel comforts often pick Xigong. Mid-range options around the city centre suit those seeking a balance between cost and comfort. Klook booking data underpins these typical nightly price patterns.
Practical booking timing for travellers
Most travellers on Klook book around 12 days ahead, while the earliest planners book about 27 days out; platform-wide patterns recommend planning rather than leaving everything to the last minute. With peak months in May and April showing higher demand, booking earlier is wise for popular dates; in quieter months you can be more flexible. Use Klook to secure Tours and attraction passes in advance so you lock in typical prices and availability, but remember late opportunities exist for quieter months — act sooner for spring peaks and book with confidence on the platform.
