We guarantee 100% No Shopping Stops in our tours. When you check some other tours, if they don't mention no shopping, they MUST have commissioned based shopping stops as terracotta warriors factory or tea ceremony. Even you don't see shopping related words in their itineraries or product introduction, it is indeed a shopping tour. Be sure to check out with them about the shopping stops and read reviews from their clients carefully to see what the real experience would be. By joining a shopping tour like that, your time spent on attractions will be shortened, and you will be pressured to buy overpriced items. Normally the so called terracotta warriors factory or tea ceremony is the tourist trap. You have to stay there an hour or more for those travel agents to get the commission from the factory stores. If you prefer to enjoy the tour thoroughly, you are suggested to choose a tour without any annoying shopping stops just like ours.

We offer free pick-up within the Second Ring Road of the Xi'an city. To ensure the morning pick-up going smoothly, we suggest you choose centrally located downtown hotels. If your hotel is beyond our free pick-up range, you may need to get to a meeting point or pay extra for the pick-up. Your travel consultant is ready to help.

Travelers will be picked up in the morning according to their hotel locations. The exact pick-up time will be confirmed the day before. Please be ready at the hotel lobby at least 5 minutes in advance, which is the maximum waiting time. For travelers who are late, please go to meet the group and pay for the taxi personally. No-show is non-refundable.

Please provide the correct passport information for booking the real-name entrance tickets. And also please make sure to carry the same identification for entry while traveling. Otherwise, entry might not be permitted. If you forgot your passport and need to get back to fetch it, please pay for the transport and later meet the group by yourself.

Group Size: About 12 people. There are chances that 10% of the tour groups will exceed 12 people but we will make proper arrangements.

Departures are guaranteed with two persons in Mar to Nov and three persons in Dec to Feb.

The itinerary schedule or sightseeing order may be adjusted according to the traffic on the tour day.

Public Holidays: Please aware there will be large crowds and heavy traffic in Chinese public holidays like May Day from May 1st to 5th and National Day from Oct 1st to 7th. We will do the best to arrange the tour.

Please wear comfortable walking shoes.

This supplier also offers 1-day mini group tour and multi-day tours. Please search the supplier's name to check its tour list.

    We went in there with the perfect timing. The school started, therefore less travellers. Our tour guide Carol was very patient and very knowledgeable with Xi’an's history. She was also so helpful giving us recommendation of local food and places to visit. Do come and try this tour.

    The half-day tour was perfect for me since I only wanted to see the Terracotta Army with a guide. It included hotel pick-up, which was super convenient. Just note that hotel drop-off is not included — instead, they drop you off at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda at the end. The full-day tour includes the pagoda and the city wall, but I explored those on my own on another day and really enjoyed doing it at my own pace. So personally, I recommend the half-day tour if your main focus is the Terracotta Army!

    We did the 1/2 day tour. We arrived around 8:15 and there was already a lot of people. Huge queues to pass the passports and security. Very hot, bring water and hat. Inside the temperature is optimal, much cooler. Celine was a great guide, spoke very well English and explained everything in very detail. Experience not to be missed in Xian. On the return we were late for a flight to Beijing and our guide Celine was very helpful ensuring our return transport to the hotel as soon as possible. Thank you Celine!
