9-course dinner was great, the show is fantastics worth your money and time. Tour operator was friendly as well and are helpful. Have to go to the location by your own but transport was easy & convenience, Just take the tour bus no. 5 outside the main train station and it only cost less than USD1. After the show tour operator are able to drive you back to your hotel in the central area with a fee but the price is affordable. Recommend to those that are comming here for the first time.

It was better to have a good seat than I thought. The guides were very kind and it was great to join this tour. On the way back, I was taken to the bus stand of the private company. It was 15 yuan to Xi'an station.

My husband and I were in Xian for 5 days, and since I speak Mandarin, so instead of joining a tour, we decided to customize the trip on our own.I came across this package and though was skeptical at first, I decided to give it a go. Boy, little did I know that we were in for a treat! We met Peter at the designated area, and he escorted us to the dining area and has stayed with us through out the whole dinner with detailed explanation for each course and attentive services. After the dinner, we were escorted to the area where the show is being performed, and we again, were blown away by the quality of the show. The design of the production, from stage design to lighting, to costume and special effects were simply mesmerizing. It's a show with music and dance without dialogue except for occasional background narratives between scenes,so if you don't understand Mandarin, you are still able to enjoy the show.
The quality of this package exceeded every expectation we had and more. If we travel to Xian again, we will definitely purchase the package again. I highly recommend this package to anyone who travels to Xian.

Fabulous, just fabulous. You have to see this show to believe it. The only minor thing is a transportation issue since this place is a bit away from the center of Xi'an. I hope the organizer will make it more accessible to the place by providing more firm options. I had my driver drop off and had him pick me up after the show. Apparently there are bus services from the city but the place was full of people and it didn't look simple to get on the bus...
