After purchasing, you can go to the ferry terminal lobby, enter your Mainland Travel Permit for Taiwan Residents number into the machine, and directly print out your QR code ticket. It's very convenient! However, I personally feel the price is a bit expensive, as local hotels also sell round-trip tickets for only 35 RMB.

They contacted us the day before to explain the tour and let us know the departure date and time, which helped us prepare accordingly. They arrived 10 minutes early, contacted us so we could leave right away, explained the itinerary, and shared a lot of useful information along the way about Xiamen and the Tulou using a translator. Upon arrival, they took pictures for us and even recommended a great restaurant and dishes when we were unsure of where to eat, making for a delicious lunch. They parked close to each tourist spot, which was very convenient, and provided a very comfortable ride throughout the trip, making it truly enjoyable. With plenty of time compared to large groups and the convenience of traveling in a private vehicle, I highly recommend this.

We were contacted the day before to reconfirm the destination, and the driver arrived on time on the day of the tour. The service was excellent, and we were able to adjust our itinerary at any time. Whenever we let them know we were ready to leave, they picked us up right on time, so no time was wasted.

Ordered for delivery to the hotel in Shanghai. Delivery was prompt by courier but no notification of parcel tracking and delivery time. Had to ask the hotel a few times to be able to get the cards. Other than that, cards were cute and usable.

I was worried because there weren't many Korean reviews, but it turned out to be a great trip! I highly recommend it to anyone who loves taking photos or wants to see a lot in a short amount of time! I'm extremely satisfied 🙆🏻‍♀️ I went with Mr. Pan as our guide, and he was so cheerful and friendly with everyone at every tourist spot, which made the trip very enjoyable, haha. The itinerary was Longchanglou (not famous, but a Tulou hotel where you can go up to the upper floors of the Tulou) -> Zhenlageng Tulou Cluster (just for quick photos) -> Yuchanglou (interior tour) -> Taxia Village (a quick photo op, but we skipped it because it was hot and we thought it was similar to Yunshuiyao) -> Yunshuiyao (we walked to Hekenglou by ourselves without the guide) -> Hekenglou sightseeing -> return to accommodation. The translator app worked so well for communication that I think you can go without much worry!

2026・Xiamen The wind that made me miss you still blew to Xiamen. I set off alone and left myself with a beautiful memory. Arrive at Gulangyu → Get to know the island → Old architecture → Coast → Gulang Stone → Distant view of Sunlight Rock → Streets and souvenirs. "Today I learned that 'yu' originally means small island, and the name Gulangyu is even related to the legend of waves hitting rocks, sounding like drums. It turns out that behind a place name, there's also the sound and history of an island."

What to know before visiting Xiamen

What to expect in Xiamen

Xiamen is best known for its Tours, Parks & gardens and Attraction passes, with steady interest in Observation decks and Zoos & aquariums too. Klook booking data shows a yearly rhythm: demand peaks in June and falls to a trough in August, so activities that suit sightseeing and outdoor strolls see the biggest swings. If you enjoy lively market days and outdoor attractions, plan for peak-season energy; if you prefer quieter visits, select months with lower booking levels. Decide whether you want peak-season buzz or quieter streets — Klook booking data helps time that choice.

When to visit Xiamen this year

Demand rises to a clear high in June while August is the quietest month, and prices move differently across the year. Klook booking data shows prices spike in September while the lowest median prices were in February; some months (June) combine higher demand with mid-range prices, while September is pricier even though demand is only quieter than a typical month. For fewer crowds and lower prices, pick February or the quieter months; for peak-season atmosphere choose June.

Month Demand Level Typical Price
January Busier than usual SGD 15
February About average SGD 13
March Quieter than usual SGD 19
April Busier than usual SGD 19
May About average SGD 21
June Peak demand SGD 21
July About average SGD 19
August Very quiet SGD 21
September Quieter than usual SGD 51
October Quieter than usual SGD 19
November Busier than usual SGD 19
December Busier than usual SGD 19

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 Xiamen

Compare districts by typical nightly hotel price on Klook: the most affordable district is Xiang'an with a typical nightly rate of SGD 17, while the priciest districts are Siming and Huli at SGD 103. That represents roughly an 84% gap between the most affordable and the priciest options according to Klook booking data. Cheaper districts tend to suit budget-conscious travellers or those happy to prioritise value and simple comforts, while pricier districts suit travellers seeking higher-end rooms and a more premium stay. Decide whether you prefer savings or upgraded comfort — Klook booking data frames the choice.

Tips for travellers from Singapore

Most travellers book their Xiamen experiences about 9 days ahead, with the earliest planners booking around 22 days out, according to Klook booking data across platforms. That level of planning suggests you should lock in must-do tours and popular activities a week or two ahead, and consider booking earlier for June, Xiamen’s peak month. Last-minute options remain possible — many bookings happen within 2 days of travel — so you can be flexible, but booking on Klook ahead secures spots in busier months and at popular price points. Book confidently on Klook to match your travel style.
