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

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.

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

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.

What to know before visiting Luoyang

What Luoyang is known for

Luoyang draws most bookings for Tours and Attraction passes, with Tours leading the way in volume and depth of offerings. Klook booking data shows the city's visitor rhythm peaks in May and stays lively through June, while October is typically much quieter. Expect cultural and guided experiences to dominate itineraries across the year, and plan whether you want the energy of the busy spring months or the calmer autumn weeks. Decide whether you value festival-season atmosphere or a quieter visit — Klook booking data can help time that choice.

Best months to visit Luoyang

Spring is the busiest part of the year: demand hits its high in May and stays elevated in April and June according to Klook booking data, while October is the quietest month. Prices drift through the year with the priciest month in July and the most affordable median price in December; in some busy months demand and prices both rise, but May shows high demand without the very highest prices. For lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for December or the quieter autumn months; for peak-season atmosphere, choose April–June.

Month Demand Level Typical Price
January About average USD 41
February Quieter than usual USD 38
March About average USD 38
April Peak demand USD 45
May Peak demand USD 32
June Peak demand USD 31
July About average USD 63
August About average USD 50
September Quieter than usual USD 38
October Quieter than usual USD 38
November Quieter than usual USD 39
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 in Luoyang

Hotel prices vary by district: Laocheng is the most affordable district with a typical nightly rate of USD 22, while Xigong is the priciest with a typical nightly rate of USD 72, a gap of roughly 69% according to Klook booking data. Laocheng suits travellers who prioritise budget and straightforward accommodation; Xigong tends to suit those willing to pay more for a higher-end stay. Mid-range travellers often find a balance in Luolong, where the typical nightly rate sits between the two extremes. Klook booking data underpins these typical nightly rates.

Tips for travellers from the United States

Most travellers book in advance: bookings on Klook typically happen about 12 days ahead, while the earliest planners book around 27 days out. That means you should plan and lock in popular tours and attraction passes a week or two before travel, and earlier for peak months like May when demand is highest. If you need flexibility, last-minute options still exist — many choices remain bookable until around 5 days before — but earlier booking gives more choice. Use Klook to compare typical prices and secure the experiences you want with confidence.
