Things to do in Xi'an

Our tour guide Peter and driver are both amazing! The place was so packed, and people will just push you around, so be prepared. Just have lots of patience and be nice, as everyone just want to get ahead of everyone to take good photos and videos. It's really nice to see the Terracotta Warriors in real life. I also enjoy the VR attraction recommended by Mr. Peter which cost only half of the original price. Also, the food after the tour was good!

we had an amazing day trip with our tour guide Andrea. she was very good at explaining the itinerary for the day and stories behind each attraction. lunch was delicious, I recommend getting the dumplings and noodles to share! and the Huaqing palace is beautiful!

Everything is good. The guide was there early to engage thd group. The guide give good and detail explanation of the key exhibits.

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 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.

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

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.
