Things to do in Xi'an

What a wonderful tour. It was like stepping back in time visiting the Terracotta Warriors Museum. I learned more about the history of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, who ordered the creation of a massive tomb with thousands of warriors to protect him in the afterlife. It was impactful to see the clay sculptures up close, each with unique details and different expressions. And even more impressive to learn that the emperor was so obsessed with immortality that he even consumed mercury, believing he would live forever. A place full of history, mystery, and grandeur. I truly won't forget this day 😊

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.

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.

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.

The show "Jiu Jiu Da Qin" is excellent and has a tight plot, but 80 minutes is too short. You can book tickets using your Home Return Permit. Klook sent me an SMS notification that my booking was confirmed, but I couldn't select my own seats. This time, I was assigned to Section B. It turns out Klook secured great seats for me in the first row of the travel agency section. These were excellent seats, very close to the performers, but because they were off to the side, I couldn't see the translations on both screens.

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.

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!)

advise to visit in late afternoon. beautiful to watch the sunset. and then it's not hot anymore, nice to bike

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.
