5.00We had a lovely day with our tour guide Lola. Her excellent English enabled her to communicate well with us, and we learnt much about the history and culture of the period. Although there were a large number of visitors at the display, Lola allowed us to linger and take as many photos as we wished but kept us moving through the exhibits so that we could do all that we had planned for this tour. We enjoyed a nice lunch in a restaurant in the area before moving onto the Great Wild Goose Pagoda and the City Wall. She conveniently dropped us off in the Muslim Quarter and we were able to make our own way home. This was a great tour and I highly recommend it.

5.00Lily did an amazing job as a tour guide and managed to combine knowledge about the visited places (Terracotta army, Wild Goose Pagoda, City Wall) with her sense of friendliness and humor. Definitely recommend it!

5.00Celine is an excellent tour guide, 5 out of 5 stars. Very attentive to our needs, great English, and overall great person. Highly recommend this tour as Celine as extensive knowledge about Xian and specifically the terracotta warriors. For reference my family is American but lives in Singapore and we visited during our spring break.

5.00My friend and I only had one day in Xi’an to experience as much as we could. This tour was very informative and we got to see all the highlights! Carol was an excellent guide and very responsive to guest questions and requests. The size of the group allowed for her to take time to talk with everyone on the trip and she was considerate of everyone. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see the Terracotta Warriors as well as highlights in the city.
Carol is best guide in China

5.00Best tour guide we had the whole time we were in China! Carol was sweet, punctual, knowledgeable, helpful and very accommodating. The tour was exactly as expected (which hasn’t happened yet on a tour we’ve booked). All entries were covered so there was no additional cost unless we wanted to purchase things. The group size was perfect and the headsets worked great so that we could hear clearly even in the busy areas. We had ample time at each stop, detailed information, good recommendations and 5 star driver (Mr Li) to get us between all the places. We all left with more knowledge than we started with, a full belly and a smile on our face. As this was great for all ages, we hope to book another tour and hope Carol is our guide.
he perfect way to visit the Terracotta Warriors.

5.00Our tour to the Terracotta Warriors was absolutely great from start to finish. We were picked up right on time at our hotel. After picking up the rest of the group, we had about an hour's drive where our guide, Carol, shared super interesting facts about Xi'an and the Terracotta Warriors. The site itself is unbelievable. It's amazing to see the scale of it and the massive effort it takes to rehabilitate the warriors piece by piece. Carol told us that visiting at this time of year is highly recommended because there are hardly any crowds compared to the summer, and we definitely felt that. She even went out of her way to find us the best spots to take pictures! The buffet lunch was also very good, and Carol timed it perfectly so we could eat peacefully without running into large crowds. The logistics were extremely convenient. We had our luggage with us, which was kept safely on the bus (which was super clean and smelled great, by the way). After the tour, they completely adapted to our schedule and made it so easy for us to head straight to the train station for our next destination. Without a doubt, the highlight was Carol. Her English is wonderful, she explains everything perfectly, and she is incredibly attentive. A 10/10 experience, highly recommended!
