YAMAMOTO *****

Although I am Japanese, even before the tour started, they were extremely kind, repeatedly helping me revise my plans and giving me advice to create the best itinerary. Our driver, Leng, was wonderful; he lent me his umbrella during a heavy rainstorm while getting completely soaked himself, kept in close touch via WeChat, and drove safely—he is the ultimate driver! I have joined tours all over the world, and he was the safest driver of them all. At first, I wondered if maybe the roads were just paved really well, but the ride back in a taxi was so bumpy that it became obvious it was thanks to Leng's exceptional driving skills. I tried to give him a tip as a thank-you, but he declined. I only have wonderful memories of my trip to China. Thank you so much ♡ It was such a great experience that I'm coming back with my family next year!

mini bus not so crowded; nice friendly and very polite tour guide. The Camel show was very unexpectedly well.

Tour guide Jiang's historical stories were incredibly captivating, as if transporting us through time. The itinerary flowed seamlessly, and the pacing was just right. Both the local cuisine and the carefully selected attractions were delightful surprises. It was a truly worthwhile trip, a high-quality, pure-play private tour.

One of the things I wanted to do on my trip to Xi'an was to experience a themed banquet. I saw many different options online and finally decided on the Empress Wu Banquet. At least it had a clear theme. The food was just average, but the performance was surprisingly good.

Become a guest of a Tang Dynasty imperial concubine, listen to Lu Yu discuss tea, witness the Poet Immortal, Sage, and Buddha engage in a poetry battle, and enjoy splendid court music and dance performances. The food is exquisite, unexpectedly delicious, and thoughtfully customized to accommodate dietary restrictions. 👍 Truly a joyous feast, a magnificent Tang Dynasty experience ❤️

What to know before visiting Xi'an
What to do in Xi'an throughout the year
Xi'an is a year-round destination whose busiest bookings on Klook are for Tours, Historical sites and Attraction passes, followed by Events & shows and Cultural experiences. Demand peaks in April when spring crowds arrive and dips in August, so the rhythm of the year matters when planning what to do. Klook booking data show visitors favour guided tours and history-focused experiences during the city's high season. Decide whether you want peak-season atmosphere or smaller crowds — that choice shapes whether you book for April or for quieter months later in the year, according to Klook booking data.
Best months to visit Xi'an
April stands out as the busiest month on Klook, with significantly higher demand, while August is the quietest month for bookings. Prices move across the year too: the priciest month is May and the most affordable month in the dataset is July. Demand and price align in late spring (April–May) when both are high; they diverge in July–August when demand falls but prices remain at their lowest. For lower prices and fewer crowds, consider July or August; for the peak-season atmosphere and the widest choice of tours, aim for April.
| Month | Demand Level | Typical Price |
|---|---|---|
| January | Busier than usual | AUD 63 |
| February | Busier than usual | AUD 82 |
| March | Busier than usual | AUD 76 |
| April | Peak demand | AUD 90 |
| May | Peak demand | AUD 91 |
| June | About average | AUD 78 |
| July | Quieter than usual | AUD 57 |
| August | Very quiet | AUD 57 |
| September | Very quiet | AUD 61 |
| October | Quieter than usual | AUD 85 |
| November | Quieter than usual | AUD 75 |
| December | About average | AUD 66 |
Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.
Where to stay in Xi'an by price
Klook hotel booking data show Lianhu is typically the most affordable district with a typical nightly rate of AUD 63, while Lintong is the priciest at AUD 476, a gap of roughly 87% between them. Budget-conscious travellers will find Lianhu suits those seeking lower nightly rates and practicality for sightseeing; the priciest end around Lintong tends to suit travellers choosing premium or special-occasion stays and those prioritising more upscale hotel offerings. These Klook figures help you match your accommodation choice to the kind of trip you want.
Tips for travellers from Australia
Most travellers from Australia tend to book experiences on Klook about 18 days ahead, while the earliest planners often book around 38 days out, so a little planning pays off. Because peak demand clusters in April and prices peak in May, lock in popular tours earlier if you want to travel in those months; for trips in quieter months you can be more flexible. Klook booking data show many options remain available close to travel, and booking through Klook keeps choices clear—pick dates, read descriptions and secure your spot with confidence.
