5.00Wow wow wow I thought it would be good but it was fantastic and awe nspireing. Worth every penny. The Virtual reality show was brilliant and we had such fun as we hadn't used the head eye helmets before. Only downside was pesty taxi drivers trying to get you to use their taxi
Wonderful experience

5.00Excellent experience; Li booked the tickets for us and then wrote down precisely what to do to avoid transportation issues and what times to avoid the crowds, and he made sure we understood everything. With Li, you can't go wrong.
Perfect day !

5.00We had an excellent experience visiting the Terracotta Army thanks to Miss Li’s assistance. Her communication was very clear, and all of her tips helped us avoid the crowds and make the most of the day. The ticket process was smooth and convenient, and everything worked exactly as explained. Visiting at our own pace made the experience even better. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Xi’an and wanting a stress-free experience at the Terracotta Army!
Amazing history but slightly underwhelming ambience/experience

4.00The history of this is incredible and I found it really interesting, both the way it was unearthed and just the whole reasoning behind the scale of this just for one Emperor. However, the actual experience of visiting them in the various hangars with hundreds and thousands of domestic tourists fighting for space for their photos was a bit underwhelming for me.
Amazing pkace

5.00Received very concidering messages and mail from miss Li with a lot of helpful tips. Sadly didnt get to see the bronze chariot and free trip mausoleum, but worth the privé anyway to see the eighth wonder of the world. We were Lucky to go at a time when it was not too busy.
A wonderful experience that gives you goosebumps.

5.00We had a great experience visiting the Terracotta Army thanks to Li’s advice. Going at 8am was perfect—no big crowds and we could enjoy everything at a relaxed pace. Li provided very detailed information on how to get there, where to go, and everything included (like the free shuttle bus), which made the whole visit incredibly smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend!
