Things to do in Xi'an

it was on summer discount so it was definitely worth it. guide was very knowledgeable and patient. only downside was that the lunch provided was very average, definitely could've been better, and also they could've at least provided a bottle of water.

It was a truly enjoyable experience. Tickets are usually very difficult to get, but I was able to purchase them easily and affordably, and the guide was incredibly kind. Any minor communication difficulties were easily resolved with Papago. If you come to Xi'an, I believe the Shaanxi History Museum is a must-visit, provided you can secure a reservation. It was a truly wonderful experience.

If you are going to Xi’an and currently considering to join the tour or in between several tour options, TRUST MEEEE just join this one. If you are not staying near Bell Tower, Bell Tower Hotel is very very easy to locate, the drive back and forth was smooth, the trip itself was amaaaaaazing with Chelsea as the guide❤️ would 10/10 recommend this tour! (not to mention, the lunch was great and abundant!)

It was a wonderful tour. Everything went smoothly according to plan, and the tour guide explained the history of the Terracotta Warriors and the emperor very well. The guide was knowledgeable and made the experience very enjoyable.

pick up was a bit chaotic as there was only a Chinese guide. but then we stopped at a second gathering spot in Xi’an where there was an English guide. he explained the trails etc. going up west and going down north is the easiest way, as it’s mostly down hill. any moderate fit person can do it. they provide small lunch and small breakfast. they did have us pay an extra 50yuan for a gps and insurance they said. as it’s just a guide for the transfer to the mountain and you do the hike by yourself nobody gave tips at the end.

We went solo and the experience was nice but a little crowded. We booked the admission only option amd hired a guide spontaneously. One problem was, that the ticket only worked for one of us, despite correct info. So, we had to rebook one ticket on the spot. Luckily, with some customer-support on Klook, we mamaged to get a refund for the faulty ticket. To get this, you need to take a picture of the ticket you bought on spot. Then, it takes a few days to get the momey back. Other than that, it was a very pleasant experience

Booking on Klook is easy. I booked the first show (8.10pm in June) Central District. Different timing in different timing, because they need to wait for sun to set. Seat number was stated on the paper ticket and I was on the last row. Still decent view I feel. A show with combination of laser, lights, water, fire and of course the performers. Show your passport/ID to exchange for physical tickets at ticketing counter. Pass through security scanning in two separate lines (male and female). Enter the seating area by following the signage. Different area has different stairs, your ticket will indicate 单/双. Many people but crowd clears fast. Plenty of leg room in front of the seats (enough space for people to walk comfortably in front of the seats) If possible, arrive earlier as there are some 'talkshows' before the actual performance start.

The audience seating moves 220 meters, not just the stage, creating an immersive experience as if you're living in the Qin Dynasty. The quality, including the stage direction, music, projection mapping, and the actors' skills, is truly top-tier. I felt it was worth traveling to Xi'an just to see this production. I want to visit again.

It aas easy to get in and explore the city wall. To activate your ticket, you need to go to the ticket office first to get a paper ticket. (no extra payment needed) If you go in summer, like I did, bring some heat essentials like electrolytes, enough water (even though you can buy soke here too, just more expensive), a battery powered fan and a manual one if the battery runs out.
