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.

Mount Hua is a must-see when you're in the area. Our guide, Zem, was very thoughtful and gave us a lot of information about our itinerary (ascending from the west and descending from the north). The weather can be unpredictable, but we loved the cloudy and slightly rainy atmosphere, which didn't detract from the charm of one of China's most famous mountains. By booking with Klook, you get breakfast and lunch included, plus a small magnet to take home. We highly recommend it! 😊

I want to start by thanking Ruby the most charming and characteristic woman I have met in the tour industry, your knowledge and connection to the community made this visit to your beautiful city a once in a lifetime experience for me. I am truly grateful you showed me and my wife around today. the tour was extremely enjoyable and very informative, it was well planned and had some extra surprises that truly made it even more memorable ( they aren’t listed in description but just trust ruby )

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.

my family and I had such a nice time during this trip. our Guide was Carol, and she was so lovely and knowledgeable. she always took care of the group and shared a lot of history. The tour was very thorough and covered the main attractions to see in Xian. Because we only stayed for two nights, it was very helpful to take this off the list in one tour. i must say, the food was also not bad at all. We have tried food from different tours, and this was definitely one of the best we tried lol. At the end, they also give you the choice to be dropped off back at the hotel or to stay at the Muslim Quarter, which really shows how much flexibility they provide during this tour. Once again, I want to praise Carol for her professionalism and for truly representing the hospitality of China.

Another long ride(4hour one way) from Xian. Weather not favorable the first half, the rest of the day was cooling. The view of the murky water that flowing down from the plain down to the yellow river has the wow factor. Driver is patient and alert throughout the trip; tour guide He dao is knowledgeable and helpful. On the return journey we visited the first emperor historic site, good for peoples who like history and culture.

The tour communicated with us 2days before. The driver and guide are very punctual. Our guide 陈芳is very details and engaging. As we have kids travelling with us, she is so patient and give us quiz to keep my children entertain. The car given is so spacious and comfortable. I would recommend this tour if you only have limited day in Xi'an.

What to know before visiting Xi'an

Quick snapshot of Xi'an and what to expect

Xi'an is a destination known for history-focused experiences, with Tours, Historical sites and Cultural experiences leading bookings. Demand on Klook shows a strong spring peak and a deep late-summer lull, so the city’s visitor rhythm swings between busy and quiet periods.

Best times to visit and how prices behave

Klook booking data shows demand peaks in April and falls to a trough in August. Prices follow a similar pattern: August is typically the cheapest month on Klook, while June tends to be among the priciest months; overall prices rise through late spring into early summer. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, consider visiting in August or the surrounding off-peak months; for peak-season atmosphere and the busiest sightseeing days, aim for April when demand is highest. Where demand is high in spring, prices also trend upward, so expect both busier conditions and higher typical prices in those months.

Tips for travelers from the United States

Most visitors from the United States book their Xi'an experiences about 12 days in advance, so plan a little ahead—especially for travel in April when demand is strongest. Many popular options (tours, historical site tickets and cultural experiences) still allow some flexibility and can be booked a few days out, but securing tickets earlier on Klook gives you more choice during peak periods.
