Top-rated Xian Attractions, Landmarks & More

We did the tour with Celine and she was a phenomenal guide! She does a great job of providing all of the history at all of the sites! I would highly recommend you take a tour with her.

We attended the private tour today with our guide Kai, and had an excellent experience. Kai was wonderful, personable, friendly and very attentive to our family’s needs. This was important since we had a child with us. Kai was also able to customise the tour to suit us, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Kai was very passionate and knowledgeable about the terracotta warriors and Xian’s history. For this attraction, we would definitely recommend a private tour. Having a dedicated guide and the flexibility to customise the experience made a big difference. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend, Carol our tour guide is knowledgeable and professional.

We had a lovely time with Celine!!! She made the tour super interesting and fun. Everything went smoothly and with no queues.

Best guide around! She is very knowledgeable, can keep the attention of the people and very kind! Loved the trip. She speak English very well

Great experience with this private tour. They tailored the pickup time to what I wanted and arrived right on time. The car was super clean and nice. My guide explained the history of the region to me on the way out in the car and once we got there everything was super smooth getting through the ticket and security area with the guide to show you every step of the way. Once inside, everything was explained every step of the way around the different viewing pits and you never felt rushed. All in all a great way to see the Terracotta Warriors if want to spend a bit more money and have someone lead the way and not having to worry about where to go next.

It was truly an AMAZING experience. Cindy is a passionate guide and eager to share all the knowledge about Chinese culture. She took us to authentic restaurants, not tourist traps. Every stops came with an explanation and a cultural context discussion. So nice ! 100 % would recommand it !!!!!

Great experience, excellent food! We've done similar food tours in at least 10 other places and Buren was our favorite guide yet. Knowledgeable, funny, and super generous with recommendations for places to hit before/after the tour. Cannot recommend him and Lost Plate enough!

A fantastic day out with our guide, Roger. He met us at our hotel and we drove to the Terracotta Wariors site where we were taken round. Roger was super knowledgeable and very personable. Then onto lunch and afterwards to the Big Goose Pagoda and the city wall. Everything was explained so well we really did enjoy the day. Would definitely recommend (and have Roger as your guide!)

It was a really great tour led by Celine. The weather wasn't good as it rained the whole day, but Celine was the sunshine that made the tour so smooth that surprisingly it wasn't stressful at all. She bought umbrellas and ponchos for everyone who needed them, so sweet of her. She's also super knowledgeable of the local history of Xi'An, I was enlightened by the connection of Journey to the West and the Pagoda.

The tour was great, we enjoyed a lot. Our tour guide was very helpful and professional, she helped us to pick the options, explained the histories for the exhibitions, we would not get that much of insights without our tour guide.

Had a great experience visiting the Terracotta Warriors! Jeff was very helpful and responsive while organising, and Vila was an excellent guide — very knowledgeable, shared lots of interesting details and answered all my questions.

We travelled to this ancient city as a couple and booked a day tour to experience the highlights of this city. We met with Tina in the morning and travelled to Terracotta Warriors, Qing Emperor Musoleum and the Big Wild Goose Pergoda. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Tina as she was insightful, knowledgeable and patient with our needs. The day was action packed yet at a great pace, we had plenty of breaks and learnt a lot about the Chinese history. Admission fees were reasonable. It's good to go in September as the crowd was smaller due to school holidays ending just a few days ago. Tina's English was also very fluent to help my partner understand everything that was going on. I want to thank her for her time today and making great memories for my partner and I here in Xi'an.

This was a wonderful seamless day. Despite it being a massive Chinese tourtist week, our guide, Shine, was able to wisk us through efficiently. Shine conveyed a wealth of information; she has been a guide almost her entire life. She has a great sense of humor and a clear plan for how we went about exploring this massive park. The site itself - it goes without saying - is mind boggling. Also, the efforts take to restore and preservce the soldiers is another epic tale. Afterwards, Shine took us to a restauant in the park, that was both upscale and classic. Perfect place to buy tea for a souvineer. As an America, I tend to discount park concessions -- this restaurant was traditinal and beautiful. Excellent food. We then returned to Xian to tour the city wall. It, too was hard to believe. Do go. The tour was to end up at the Muslm Quarter, however, we opted out, as we visited the day before.... and we spent extra time viewing the soldiers and city wall. Bottomline: Shine was a wonderful guide. Lily coordinated the tour, and she, too, made the trip so easy. I have only good comments and memories for this tour!

Agnes our guide is so informative and caring! She is very caring and took her time to explain and provide all helps needed

Our tour guide Betty and driver Mr Li ensured we had a fantastic day. They were on time and the van was luxurious. We appreciated Betty giving us so much invaluable information not just about the history of Xi’an and the warriors but of Chinese history in general. Betty guided us through the busy exhibition seamlessly while giving commentary along the way through earpieces, pointing out the good viewing spots. We ended with a delicious lunch of Xian delicacies and tea. Thanks Betty and Mr Li we hope to see you again for more Xian exploring!
