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.

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!

Tour guide is extremely professional, knowledgable and explains everything deeply. It's a lot of walking ups and downs in the heat and waiting time for transfers ,but its worth a visit while u have stamina.

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!

What to know before visiting Nanjing

What to do in Nanjing year-round

Nanjing is a city where guided Tours lead booking volumes, followed by Zoos & aquariums, Museums and Historical sites — all reflecting a year that peaks in April and quiets off into September, according to Klook booking data. Spring has the busiest months for exploring guided walks and cultural experiences, while late summer and early autumn see far fewer visitors. If you’re choosing when to visit, consider whether you prioritise atmosphere or lower demand: visit in peak months for lively sights, choose quieter months for fewer crowds, based on Klook booking data.

Best months to visit and prices

April is the single busiest month and September the quietest by Klook booking data; prices rise through early spring and peak in April, with the most expensive median paid in April and the lowest medians clustered in August–October. Where demand and price align, April offers a lively, pricier experience; August–October suits travellers seeking lower prices and much smaller crowds. Overall, travellers wanting lower prices and fewer people should aim for August–October, while those after peak-season atmosphere should plan for April.

Month Demand Level Typical Price
January Peak demand MYR 53
February Quieter than usual MYR 36
March Quieter than usual MYR 69
April Peak demand MYR 97
May About average MYR 73
June About average MYR 97
July Quieter than usual MYR 53
August Very quiet MYR 36
September Very quiet MYR 36
October Very quiet MYR 36
November Peak demand MYR 36
December Peak demand MYR 36

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 nightly price

Klook booking data shows Xuanwu as the most affordable district, with a typical nightly rate around MYR 223, while Yuhuatai sits at the priciest end with a typical nightly rate around MYR 434. The gap between them is roughly 49%. Cheaper districts tend to suit travellers prioritising budget and simpler accommodation, while pricier districts suit those who prefer higher-end hotels and a more premium stay. Use these typical nightly rates from Klook booking data to choose the balance between cost and comfort.

Tips for travellers from Malaysia

Most travellers book about 10 days ahead, with the earliest planners booking up to 22 days out, based on Klook platform data. That means you have moderate time to be flexible, but during April and other peak months it’s wise to lock in experiences a little earlier. Klook booking data also shows good last-minute availability up to 6 days before for many experiences, so you can still be spontaneous. Book with Klook to compare typical prices and secure spots for popular tours and cultural experiences in Nanjing.
