刘导 our tour guide, is incredibly knowledgeable—learning about Xi’an’s history from him was a joy! Huaqing Palace and the Terracotta Warriors Museum are absolute must-sees. The live shows 《12.12西安事变》and 《复活的军团》blew me away with their spectacular storytelling and immersive experience. 张龙 our tour guide at the Terracotta Warriors museum is extremely knowledgeable about the history of Qin! What an unforgettable trip—highly recommend!

Review for: Classic Tour (Chinese Tour Guide)

This tour was a rewarding way to explore Xi’an’s rich history. Pickup and transport were arranged on a strict schedule and grouped by respective tours, so be alert in the morning to avoid missing key info. I opted for the Mandarin-speaking tour, which was a great choice as it felt more informative and detailed. The first stop, Hua Qing Palace, didn’t seem exciting at first, but the guide’s storytelling made the ancient bathhouses surprisingly intriguing. After a local lunch, we continued to the day’s highlight: the Terracotta Warriors Museum. It was expansive, well-organized, and awe-inspiring despite the crowds and occasional pushing. There was frequent upselling of products and side-trips, but it was manageable if you focused on the main itinerary. The return transfer to Xi’an was smooth, with payment collected at the end. You can request drop-off near city landmarks or pre-arrange a show at Hua Qing Palace. Thanks to 蒲导, 王师傅, and fellow travelers who made the trip memorable.

Review for: Terracotta Warriors + Huaqing Palace + 《Song of Everlasting Sorrow》Show · English

This trip was mine and my 2 friends' first visit to the Ancient Capital City of China - Xi'An. Whilst here, of course we cannot skip the Terracotta Warriors. To save us booking all the little things, we had decided to book this day tour. I must thank our tour guide Andrea for her excellent and attentive services she has provided throughout the day, her explanations were clear and answered any of our questions. My friends and I stayed behind in Huaqing Palace to watch The Song of the Everlasting Sorrow! I must recommend everyone to watch it, you will not regret it. The dancers, lighting, effects and choreography is absolutely amazing.

Review for: Terracotta Warriors + Huaqing Palace + 《The Legend of Camel Bells 》Show · English

I cannot recommend this tour highly enough! Our tour guide, Star, was absolutely fantastic. Her expertise in providing historical knowledge made the experience even more enriching. She had excellent English skills and was incredibly informative throughout the tour. Everything was well organized and perfectly on schedule, allowing us to fully enjoy each moment. We were also offered an additional show about the Terracotta Warriors, which we eagerly accepted—and I'm so glad we did! It was an amazing performance that truly complemented the museum experience. We enjoyed all our VIP seats, making the day even more special. I can confidently say that visiting the Terracotta Warrior Museum is a must. With the luxury of a private coach and the superb guidance from Star, this trip was truly unforgettable. Don't miss this incredible opportunity!

Review for: Terracotta Warriors + Huaqing Palace (No performance) · Chinese

The best thing about the trip was the participants in the group. I was lucky that we all came from different countries and generally got along, and even looked out for each other throughout the day. The guide was a little taken aback when I told him I did not want to purchase the additional activities. Although he didn’t hard sell too much after that, but we could all feel that he paid less attention to the group that didn’t want to do the additional activities. Guess the KPI struck hard! Other than that, it was a fun day out visiting the palace and Terracotta Armies 兵马俑。

Review for: 클래식 대규모 그룹 (중국어 말하기 투어 가이드)

The guide spoke some English, so it was okay. We communicated through WeChat, so there was no major inconvenience. After visiting the Huaqing Palace, we moved to have lunch, and then toured Terracotta Army Pit 1-3. After finishing the optional tour, we paid 279 yuan to watch the Qin Shi Huang performance. The performance shows the life of Qin Shi Huang while moving through about 6 stages, and the scale is large and worth seeing. There are snacks and jade shops in the middle. The snacks are worth buying. The airport duty-free shop is too expensive. The guide was friendly, and the tour was conducted in Chinese, so I couldn't understand it, but it was okay. If you want to do it cheaply, it's okay to make a reservation locally.
