The Terracotta army did not disappoint was amazing to see in situ. once there you can pay to be taken up to the main area if dont want a long walk. well mapped out. unfortunately you have to walk back (unless we missed it) and its a long walk but through a huge food /shopping area

A small group tour English guide. Chelsea was an amazing tour guide. She's very knowledgeable about the rich history of Xi'an and China. She even recommended some places to visit and Xi'an speciality food to try. I didn't know that 1/2 day tour was with lunch included so it's a bit surprised when Chelsea straight away arranged halal food at a local muslim resto for me and my family after the first meeting! Thank you very much! Highly recommend this tour.

If you're traveling to Xi'an, China, the Terracotta Army and the Chang恨歌 (Song of Everlasting Regret) show are definitely the highlights. I looked around on various platforms, and only Klook was selling VIP tickets, so I booked it right away. VIP has a different entrance, a waiting area before the show, and tea and coffee are provided. I was worried about the February performance, so I bundled up, but Xi'an in February was warmer than I expected. Best of all, the seats were heated! They also provided warm tea, so I was able to watch the show without being cold. It was great.

After watching "赳赳大秦 (The Qin Empire)," I didn't feel excitement, but a deep sense of heaviness. It's not just a simple glorification of the empire's strength, but it allows you to see how a country is built step by step through discipline, fear, sacrifice, and belief. Qin is cold and ruthless. But precisely because of this, it was able to stand its ground in a chaotic world. Standing in front of the stage, watching the momentum of thousands of troops, I suddenly understood: "赳赳 (Jiū Jiū)" is not arrogance, but a choice forced out by the times. Behind the strength lies the silence of countless nameless people; behind the unification are individual destinies that can never return. This is not a performance that makes people feel relaxed, but a reminder that the weight of history is never romantic.

The tour was very good but extremely tiring. We traveled from the west to the north in the morning, and it took a few hours to make our way down. The views were absolutely amazing, yet also quite terrifying at times, as some of the steps were very steep and required constant caution. This tour is definitely not recommended for the elderly, as it demands a lot of movement, strength, and careful footing to complete the climb. Although the trip was cold and nerve-racking, the breathtaking scenery—and the many cats you’ll encounter along the way—made the entire journey 100% worth it.

The Shaanxi Museum Guide Ms Nana was very knowledgeable and explained the exhibit at Hall 4, 6 and 7 in details to us. The whole tour took abt 3hrs. For the camel bell show, we enjoyed it very much and the driver pick us up and drop us off at the hotel. Both segments were planned well and the agent contacted me one day in advance via WA with the details. Highly recommended.

We had a superb experience in Xi’an! My family and I were absolutely thrilled with the tour and the places we visited, all thoughtfully arranged through Klook. Our local tour guide, Emily, was exceptional—fluent in English, very accommodating, patient, and polite. She went out of her way to support us as we were travelling with an elderly family member and a 5-month-old baby, and truly made our time in Xi’an enjoyable and stress-free. We are very satisfied with the arrangements made by Klook for our family. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!
