We had a wonderful half-day private tour to the Terracotta Army with Mason. Although our trip was short and we only visited the Terracotta Army, we had a really great time. Mason’s English is excellent. He speaks fluently and clearly, so communication was very easy. He knows Qin history very well. He explained the stories of Emperor Qin Shi Huang and the terracotta warriors in a vivid way, not just reading a boring script. Mason’s service was also fantastic. He was punctual, patient and professional. He guided us through the museum, answered all our questions, and never rushed us. He perfectly handled our tight schedule. This short tour became a memorable experience. We highly recommend Mason as a private guide in Xi’an. We would love to book him again if we return. Best Tour Guide 5stars

Our family group of 10 recently booked the Xi'an Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum Ticket for a private tour, and we were absolutely delighted with the experience! Managing a large family group is no easy task, but our tour guide, Miss Jing, handled us flawlessly from start to finish. Her knowledge of the Qin Terracotta Army site is truly unmatched. Miss Jing was incredibly meticulous in explaining every single detail, bringing the rich history and scale of the warriors to life. She was patient, accommodating, and made sure everyone in our family was captivated the entire time. Outstanding service and a massive thumbs up from all ten of us. We are so glad we booked this private tour and highly recommend requesting Miss Jing as your guide!

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.

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.

This museum is well known extremely difficult to get ticket, appreciate the local travel agent to get the Tang Dynasty Mural Hall which allows direct entry to main hall.

We came to Xi'an, China for a trip with our parents, and the Mt. Huashan day tour is something we will never forget for the rest of our lives! We took the cable car up and hiked down the West Peak to North Peak route. It was more thrilling than any scary amusement park ride, and the scenery looking down from Mt. Huashan simply cannot be captured in photos or words! Make sure to visit while you are still young, though please note that the difficulty level is quite high!

What an excellent tour! I had such a great experience on this half-day Terracotta Warriors tour. My tour guide, Rainey, was absolutely wonderful. She was so sweet, friendly, and communicative throughout the entire experience, especially when it came to coordinating the hotel pickup and drop-off. Rainey was also incredibly knowledgeable and did a great job explaining the history and significance of the Terracotta Warriors in a way that was interesting and easy to follow. She made the entire experience feel seamless and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this tour, especially if you’re lucky enough to have Rainey as your guide!
