Friendly, knowledgeable and, engaging guide who kept us informed throughout. The actual tour was good however I'm not a great supporter of factory tours as part of the process. All in all a good day with a good guide.

Amazing Warriors, but a shopping trip?

Bratts2Go

, Jun 2019

My husband and I booked this private tour because viewing the Terracotta Warriors has always been a bucket-list item for my husband. And, yes, the Warriors were amazing! What was not amazing was the "shopping" stop we made at a factory that makes terracotta warriors, souvenirs, furniture, you name it! That was not in the description of the tour we booked, and not only did we not purchase anything (despite the many sales pitches), we were annoyed that our time was wasted there. Yes, their items were quite pretty, but we wanted to get on with the Terracotta Warriors - the real purpose of our tour. The shopping stop is the reason my rating is not a 5-star. The Warriors lived up to their hype, our lunch was plentiful and delicious, and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda was beautiful. We were lucky enough to be there when the monks were chanting, and we loved that. Our guide, Becky, was very nice and very knowledgeable. She is working on her English, however, and sometimes we did have a language barrier.

Tour Terracotta Warriors and Big Wild Goose Pagoda with Laura

Roving39203673256

, May 2019

Sites were extremely interesting and more than we expected. We visited on labour day, May 1 and it was impossible to see much due to the crowds who were pushy and quite impolite. Our daughter of 6, would have been crashed by the crowds, had she not been on my husband's shoulders, so avoid public holidays. Due do the crowds, the tour guide opted to wait for us at each exit from the sites so we did not have explanations there, therefore she wanted to pass on the information in the car which was not the best option. so we were mostly on our own and did not fee we had a tour guide with us. however, had she come inside, she probably could not have offered the explanations due to the crowds, however she could have done it outside each hall.

AWESOME EXPERIENCE IN XI'AN

Relax15554534997

, Apr 2019

Noble was an awesome guide! He went above our expectation in accommodating and providing the historical information as well as modern life in Xi'an. We had a great time at the Terracotta museum, factory, and Big Goose Pagoda during the day. We got to try the famous Xi'an fat rice noodle and finish the day tour with a delicious boba. Noble even recommended us to go for a walk to Muslim Quarter from our hotel, which was a fun experience to try local food and got to take a bunch of pictures of all the lights, towers, and ancient wall. Since we arrived after the Lunar New Year holiday, there's still a lot of street lights decoration and we felt like we're in an ancient Chinese drama walking through the colorful ancient wall and square. I've been telling my family and friends about this trip and recommend them to visit Xi'an via this private tour.

This was a terrific tour. Our guide Sasha was very informed and pleasant. We were picked up on time at our hotel and taken to both venues, with a wonderful lunch in between at a five-star hotel and spa. It was a crushingly hot day with a billion people seemingly to see the warriors, but we still managed to have a great experience thanks to our guide. Would heartily recommend this tour!

Linda was an outstanding tour guide and host . She was charming and very knowledgeable of all the historical aspects of Xi'an and in particular the Big Wild goose pagoda and the Terra Cota warriors. This was probably the high point of our China visit and we would recommend Linda to all that come to Xi'an. Much appreciated
