5.00Lily was very knowledgeable about the history of Xi'an. Her experience as a tour guide meant we saw the best of everything, even though it was very crowded we had a great day with her. Highly recommend.
Xian is with lots of history very interesting as well to see.

5.00Such a well organised trip. Our tour guide was Tracy. We were picked up from our hotel and taken straight there. On the way, Tracy gave us the history of the Terracotta Warriors. Once there she explained what we would be doing. I have to say, the crowds are insane and it is definitely a bit of a bun fight to get your pictures. The Chinese don’t queue, so be prepared to be pushed out of the way. After the pits, lunch was included and time to shop or look around. We then got back on the bus and visited the Pagoda and city wall. After that we were driven back to our hotel, although you could stay in the Muslim Quarter and make your own way home. Well worth doing and Tracy was fantastic
Amazing

5.00Fantastic tour and a great way to see Xi’an in one day. The Terracotta Army was incredible and the itinerary was well organised, covering all the main highlights without feeling rushed. Roger was an excellent guide — friendly, knowledgeable, and made the day enjoyable with helpful local insights and clear explanations.
