I had Alice as my guide who gave explanations so detailed I barely had any questions to ask. It's a shame that there weren't any tickets to the museum available since I booked the day before and tickets to the Shaanxi history museum is notoriously hard to get. I recommend booking far in advance if you wish to see it.
Good tour despite the rain

Kimi was professional, courteous and fun. He is passionate about his job and it shows. The included lunch was good. My sister and I had a good time with Kimi. I recommend this full-day Xi'an tour.

While I don't think that this tour is needed to see Xi'an this tour provided a quick overview for anyone who wants to see the city. The tour guide was extremely knowledgable and makes getting around easy if you don't speak Chinese.

The tour to the history museum was extremely informative. My guide, Lily, was very patient in explaining the history of ancient China. I was the only one on the tour so it was a one-to-one tour. The visits to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and Ancient City Wall were equally amazing! I opted to take a bicycle ride on the city wall. Highly recommend this tour as the locations of the museum and pagoda are outside the city wall.
