The guide (Rocky) was experience and informative. He explained the history of the sites in detail. The Kungfu show at Shaolin temple is entertaining. The transport provided was new and clean. We enjoyed the day trip and overall rating is excellent.
Incredible day and great logistics
Published on Apr, 2024
Excellent service…all the vehicles were modern and clean. Bullet train from Xi’an to Luoyang to visit the Longmen Grottoes and Shaolin Temple was fast and great schedules. Rocky our companion on this excursion provided exceptional support and immense amounts of information about the sites. The Longmen Grottoes are incredible examples of Chinese Buddhist art. The images, many once painted, were beautiful. The central cave carved in limestone cliffs is truly magnificent…the central figure approximately 55 feet tall. We then traveled to the Shaolin Monastery also known as Shaolin Temple. This is monastery is recognized as the birthplace of Chan Buddhism and the cradle of Shaolin Kung Fu. At the Shaolin Temple we watched a kung-fu demonstration by the Songyang Academy students displaying amazing martial arts. We had an absolutely incredible day…we would definetly book this excursion again.

Rocky our companion on this excursion provided exceptional support and immense amounts of information about the sites. The Longmen Grottoes or Caves are some of the finest examples of Chinese Buddhist art in the world. The images, many once painted, were carved as outside rock reliefs and inside artificial caves excavated from the limestone cliffs of the Xiangshan and Longmenshan.
