Our verdict

Klook suits people who want attraction tickets, day tours, transfers and activities in one app, with strong scores on the App Store (4.7 to 4.8/5) and Trustpilot (4.5/5). The trade-offs are a lower Google Play score (4.4/5), reviewer reports of extra fees and hard-to-change bookings, and refunds that depend on each supplier's policy.

Best for: Travellers who want to pre-book attractions, tours and transfers with e-vouchers

Skip it if: Anyone who needs flexible cancellation on every order: many activities are non-cancellable

Pros

  • Wide range: attractions, day tours, hotels, car rental, trains, buses, ferries, event tickets
  • Instant confirmation and e-vouchers that can be downloaded for offline use, per the App Store description
  • 34 app languages (including English, Vietnamese, Japanese; per the App Store)

Cons

  • Trustpilot reviewers report price increases or extra fees at checkout, promo code trouble and difficulty changing confirmed bookings
  • Refunds depend on each supplier's policy; Klook says it cannot force a merchant to break its own cancellation terms
All pros and cons · Who is it for?

Pros

Experience & key features

What Klook is

Klook is an online travel platform founded in Hong Kong in September 2014 by Ethan Lin and Eric Gnock Fah (per Wikipedia). It began with activities, attraction tickets and tours and later added hotels, car rental, trains and transport. Its US IPO filing in November 2025 reported 2024 revenue of US$417.1 million and gross transaction value of US$2.5 billion (per Skift); in October 2026 Klook withdrew the listing, citing market conditions.

How it works

You pick an activity, date and quantity, pay, then receive an e-voucher in the app. The App Store description says many tickets confirm instantly, some attractions offer skip-the-line entry, and vouchers can be downloaded for offline use. Beyond sightseeing, the app covers car rental, trains, buses, ferries, movie and event tickets, and eSIM perks for higher tiers.

Pricing, cancellation and refunds

The app is free; you pay per product. Cancellation terms are set by each supplier and shown on the activity page or voucher; Klook says it can ask merchants for refunds in force majeure cases but cannot force them to break their own policies. Since Trustpilot has reports about rescheduling and hotel refunds, read the cancellation terms before paying.

More analysis

Compared with alternatives

In activities, Klook competes directly with GetYourGuide and Viator. Skift Research estimates Klook's US$2.5 billion of 2024 gross bookings at about 0.8% of the global experiences market, versus about 1.3% for Viator, and nearly 87% of Klook's transaction value comes from Asia Pacific. For Asia trips its catalogue is therefore often deeper, but compare prices and cancellation terms across platforms before buying.

Cancellation & refunds

Cancellation terms depend on each activity. Per the help center, "free cancellation" items can be cancelled yourself within the stated window for a full refund; "conditional" ones require contacting support; "non-cancellable" ones are not refunded. Money returns to the original payment method and can take 3 to 14 days; KlookCash you used is refunded automatically, but not if you cancel after it has expired.

Privacy

Klook's privacy policy has sections on international data transfer and data retention. Klook says it does not sell personal data for money, but it uses third-party advertising services (marketing agencies, social platforms) and may share data to target ads outside its platform. For California residents the policy acknowledges that sharing advertising identifiers, device information and IP addresses with advertising partners counts as "selling" and "sharing" under the CCPA, with opt-out links. Users can request access, correction and deletion (a reasonable processing fee may apply). Data is kept only "as long as necessary" for the stated purposes or by law, then deleted or anonymised; no concrete period is given. The developer-provided App Store privacy labels list purchases, identifiers and usage data as used to track users across other companies' apps and websites, while the Google Play data safety section declares no data shared with third parties.
