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

We had a wonderful experience visiting Shaolin Temple and Sanhuangzhai. Even though this was a Chinese speaking tour and we were the only Korean guests, our guide ‘Gao Jie’ was incredibly kind, beautiful and considerate throughout the trip.😊 Thanks to the guide’s care we were able to fully enjoy the experience. The Shaolin Kung Fu show was amazing, and short tracking at the Songshan, where legendary martial arts masters once trained, was unforgettable. A perfect tour filled with history, culture, and stunning scenery. Highly recommended! 👍

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!

We used the service on May 1st, which was a Chinese national holiday. It was extremely crowded, but everything went smoothly. The service was excellent, and the tour bus service was great. Lunch was also provided for 40 yuan.

Great 4.0
Our tour guide is very capable and helpful. Knowing that we are foreigners and not be able to reach the meeting point in the early morning, she booked a didi for us to bring us from our hotel to the meeting point. She also help us with the senior concession for our tickets. Excellent service !

Great 4.0
Instead of 4 hours at the Shaolin Temple, we were only there for 2 hours. Unfortunately, there was no performance by the Shaolin Kung Fu monks, which was a real shame. The tour guide was good and very helpful.

our tour guide 程艳霞 was amazing, she took care of us throughout the tour and attended to all of our queries professionally. this tour will do pick up from your hotel, but drop you at only certain drop off point but not back to your hotel. we were lucky cause it was only a small group of 11 people, make everything easier and smoother

What to know before visiting Zhengzhou

Quick snapshot of Zhengzhou and what draws visitors

Zhengzhou is a practical hub for travellers, with Tours, Attraction passes and Historical sites leading bookings on Klook. Demand varies a lot through the year, with clear busy and quiet stretches that shape when people visit and which experiences run highest in demand.

Best months to visit and how prices behave

According to Klook booking data, the busiest month is May while demand falls to its lowest in August. Prices wander through the year: Klook data show July is typically the cheapest month while September is typically the priciest. That means crowd levels and prices don’t always move together here—May is very busy but not the most expensive month, while September carries higher prices despite lower demand than May. For lower prices and smaller crowds, plan for July or late summer months; for peak-season atmosphere pick May.

Tips for travellers from the United States

Most travellers from the United States book about 11 days ahead on average, with many locking in plans earlier in busy periods and some last‑minute bookings possible around four days out. If you’re traveling in peak months like May, give yourself extra lead time for popular tours and attraction passes; for short-notice trips many experiences can still be booked within a few days. Use Klook to compare available tours and passes and secure the options that fit your schedule.
