Tour was good. Tour guide has a good knowledge of the history behind it all and it was quite enlightening. The recommended musical performance afterwards was good.

Excellent tour of Terracotta Warriors Museum! The terracotta warriors are of course a must-see, not only in Xian but the whole of China, so we opted for a private tour to guide us. Our tour guide was Cynthia, who was friendly, knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. If you are looking for a great, 2-hour crash course, look no further.

We were fortunate enough to have a private tour with Chelsea. She walked us through the main exhibitions of the terracotta army and highlighted the most important information as well as answered our many questions. We highly recommend a tour with Chelsea – she even gave us tips for food and activities in the city. Thank you again for the lovely tour!

Good tour but tour guide cared much more about selling us items. Had to tell him 4 times I did not want to meet the ‘farmer’ in which we finally left him. Would recommend for the tour but not his experience.
