Unforgettable Experience with Ark – The Perfect Guide for the Terracotta Warriors!

5.00Visiting the Terracotta Warriors is already an incredible experience, but doing it with Ark made it truly unforgettable. His passion, deep knowledge, and storytelling ability brought the entire site to life in a way I never expected. Ark guided us through the museum with perfect pacing, avoiding the crowds and taking us to the best viewing points. He explained not only the historical facts but also the human stories behind the warriors—the artistry, the symbolism, the archaeological discoveries—all delivered with warmth and clarity. Thanks to Ark, I didn’t just see the Terracotta Army—I felt connected to its history. If you’re visiting Xi’an, don’t miss the chance to take a tour with Ark. He’s more than a guide—he’s a storyteller who turns history into something personal and powerful.

1.00Booked tickets and private driver for 2 people Arrived in front of the entrance the driver tells us that we must return to the meeting point established after 2 hours. Absolutely insufficient time for the visit, given the influx of people I sent 2 wathsapp messages to the manager who had sent us the data to ask for clarification while I was inside the structure. They were read after a few minutes, the answer came after 11 hours...So we had to skip some areas to get to the car on time. Also arrived at the agreed meeting point, the driver was not there and we had to look for him because he was in another place
