Great ! - I had Alice as my guide who gave explanations so detailed I barely had any questions to ask. It's a shame that there weren't any tickets to the museum available since I booked the day before and tickets to the Shaanxi history museum is notoriously hard to get. I recommend booking far in advance if you wish to see it.

Good tour despite the rain - Kimi was professional, courteous and fun. He is passionate about his job and it shows. The included lunch was good. My sister and I had a good time with Kimi. I recommend this full-day Xi'an tour.

Full day tour - Nancy was a great guide who shared the history of the city and sights and covered all the places I wanted to see. This is a great tour that covers the city nicely! I enjoyed going to the mosque as well as the Muslim Quarter / Street in general.

I was the only one on the tour so it was a one-to-one tour. The visits to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and Ancient City Wall were equally amazing! I opted to take a bicycle ride on the city wall. Highly recommend this tour as the locations of the museum and pagoda are outside the city wall.</p>

For this particular tour, I got Lily who was very knowledgeable and spoke good English. She seemed to know her history well and gave me a lot of information as we walked through the Shaanxi History Museum...an absolute MUST SEE on any Xian itinerary. Also enjoyed the Wild Goose Pagoda and the fancy Tang Dynasty buffet. I would highly recommend this tour. Just excellent stuff if you enjoy history and good sumptuous food. Thank you, Lily</p>

Amazing tour ! Our tour guide Lucia... - <p>Amazing tour ! Our tour guide Lucia was so knowledgeable and her English was perfect. We didn't know too much about Xi'an except that it is home to the Terracotta army, but after the tour we knew so much more. Xi'an is a city in China we won't mind visiting again.</p>
