Angie, our English speaking tour guide of the day was very responsible to make sure we fitted right in Xi’an before trip day. she started contacted me a day before to assure me where she will pick us up from. On the actual day, she contacted us 30 mins before pick up time to let us know she had arrived. she was right there when we arrived 15 mins earlier. The van came around to pick us up and off we headed to see the terracotta warriors museum. Along the way, she shared with us the 5000 years of China history, from the first dynasty to the last. At the museum, she made sure we got the best view at every spot along the 3 viewing pits. She was all patience and very precise with her every explanation of the historical background of the display. We totally enjoyed and appreciated her knowledgeable background of China history as she majored in History and English in university. Lunch was at the museum and we continued to the Huaqing Palace and City wall. Angie made our day memorable.
Fantastic day out with Emily our guide who expertly navigated us through the Great Wild Goose Pagoda, Terracotta Army and Huaqing Palace. She knows the best photo ops and lunch spot! Also special thanks for recommending we add the Silk Road performance to end our day, and helping us purchase tickets for the best seats. Everything was made seamless, thank you Emily!
Just came back from an amazing 1-day trip to the Terracotta Warriors, and I can’t recommend this experience enough! A huge highlight of the trip was our tour guide, Yang Yang. She was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, providing very detailed explanations at every stop. From the history behind the Terracotta Army to the cultural context of each site, she made everything come alive in such an engaging and easy-to-understand way. You can really tell she loves what she does, and it made the whole journey so much more meaningful. Also want to give a big shoutout to our driver, who was professional, punctual, and ensured a very smooth and comfortable ride throughout the day. Everything was well-organized and stress-free thanks to him. Overall, this trip exceeded my expectations — great planning, excellent guidance, and a truly unforgettable experience. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Xi’an!
The day trip to Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, Ci'en Temple, Terracotta Warriors, and Huaqing Palace was an amazing experience! We highly recommend tour guide A Lei and driver Xiao Dong. Our tour guide, A Lei, was incredibly thoughtful and attentive throughout the trip, especially considering the elderly members of our group. He planned a comfortable itinerary that wasn't rushed. His explanations were professional and insightful, vividly recounting the historical stories of Xi'an's various dynasties. He patiently and thoroughly explained the ancient relics and exhibits, significantly deepening our understanding of the ancient capital's millennia-old history and culture. Driver Xiao Dong drove steadily and safely. He always had bottled water ready for us in the hot weather, and the vehicle was clean and comfortable. His service was meticulous and heartwarming. This Xi'an trip was relaxing and unforgettable. We genuinely recommend tour guide A Lei and driver Xiao Dong!

We had a private tour in Xi’an visiting the Terracotta Army, the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, and Huaqing Palace, and it was an outstanding experience — mainly thanks to our guide, Sophia. Sophia has a deep knowledge of Chinese history and the sites we visited, explaining everything clearly and in a very engaging way. She is extremely intelligent, well-informed, friendly, and attentive, always making us feel comfortable and involved throughout the tour. What made the experience even more special was her genuine curiosity and interest in Brazilian culture. She asked thoughtful questions and created a real cultural exchange, which made the tour feel personal and meaningful, not just informational. The places themselves are incredible, but they became even better with Sophia’s guidance. We also appreciated our driver, Mr. Wang, who was professional and kind. We truly loved this tour and highly recommend Sophia to anyone visiting Xi’an.
