Maria has been a fantastic guide: she provided with lots of information and context about the Terracotta Army, has also taken us to a couple of extra attractions and the restaurant she suggested was delicious. An amazing guide!

That guide Elith was very friendly and supportive during the whole trip. Pick up us at the hotel and help all the way through the tour. Recommended trip and also very knowledgeable about the terracotta warriors and exhibition site.

This tour led by Amber was the tour of all tours. She was incredible. Our driver was incredible. The knowledge around the topic was fantastic. Her knowledge on the museum, its development over the years and the future of the site, just superb. Amber led us with patience and kindness yet timeliness. Super skilled at knowing when to pause and when to leave us to think. Our lunch stop was delicious and Amber carefully explained what would happen and the food being served. The car, the tour, the food all exemplary. You must book this.

Seeing one of the worlds true gems: the Terracotta Army is a MUST do excursion. It is one thing to view images on TV but to actually see this in person is a definite ‘bucket list’ item now ticked off. WOW! Comes to mind: unbelievable, fantastic history may be others. We did not book a full tour or a guide as we did some homework previous to viewing & there are plenty of English signage around: very happy with our day out. TIP: we are now huge users & believers of Alipay/DiDi; so we would recommend only prepaying your admission ticket to avoid long lines of people & book your car via DiDi on the morning you are ready to go: cheaper & easy. In short, go to this wonderful venue, which is about 30 kms out of Xi’an. 10/10 for us.
