- The Museum of Qin Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses - Guests will be picked up at 8 AM in the hotel lobby, followed by a one-hour drive to one of China’s most remarkable attractions—the awe-inspiring Terra-Cotta Warriors Museum. The museum features three pits, with one containing 6,000 statues, while the others have fewer. The statues represent different ranks, distinguished by the number of hair knots. Archaeologists continue to work daily, uncovering more warriors and horses. Regardless of how much is read about this renowned site, it never fails to amaze.
- Xi’an City Wall (Chengqiang) - After lunch, guests will return to the city to explore Xi’an City Wall, one of China’s most well-preserved ancient city walls. Upon reaching the top, visitors can enjoy a panoramic view of the ancient city. Biking around the entire wall is also an option.
- Muslim Quarter - Conclude the day by exploring Xi’an’s Muslim heritage with a stroll down Muslim Street, the city’s street-food hub. Sample a variety of Chinese Muslim cuisine, from lamb kebabs to noodles and pancakes, and watch as the food is prepared right before your eyes.

Excellent guide for a one day visit - Excellent guide to visit Xi'an in just one day. She picked us up at the airport with a driver that took us to see the Terracota Warriors. Later we visited the City Walls and Muslim Street. It's imposible to visit more in just one day and her explanations helped us a lot to better understand this beautiful country.

Private Tour was Excellent! - This private tour with Jasmine was perfect for my husband and I. We had an approximately 5.5 hour tour with Jasmine (including the car ride from the hotel to the terra cotta warrior museum and the ride back to the train station to return to Beijing). Due to our train schedule, the actual amount of time that we had to walk around the museum was about three hours or so. This is not enough time to stop and talk about every single part of the museum, but Jasmine really helped us make the most of it. She is so knowledgeable and her ability to speak both Chinese and English was perfect! My husband and I left feeling extremely satisfied with the tour and she even helped us read our train tickets as they were written only in Chinese. The terra cotta warrior museum is a must-see if you are in Xi'an and I'm so glad that Jasmine was with us to explain the history and answer our questions about this amazing piece of history!

Great Day Trip Tour! - We've been in Chengdu and unfortunately not enough time to visit beautiful Xi'an as well. But we didn't want to miss the Terra-catto Warrior. Definitely once in a lifetime experience. So thanks to the bullet train who is running from Chengdu to Xi'an since last year we took our chance and booked a 1-Day-Trip with Jasmine who was our private guide! She did a fantastic job. She is very knowledgable and her English is fantastic. As we are foodies she even took us to a local restaurant (promise, no tourist trap) afterwards and scheduled us on an earlier train back to Chengdu. All totally worth the money. If you are close to Xi'an - Terra-cotta Warrior are a must see. Comparable to the Pyramids and Machu Pichu! Take your chance and book this great 1-Day-Tour!

If you need a guide in Xi'an, call Jasmine! - Jasmine shared lots of information, had great advice, and - most importantly - was very flexible and accommodating. We were a large group (4 adults, 5 kids under 8), and she managed us well and addressed all our needs. She arranged a car, purchased tickets, and kept our herd on schedule.
English and Chinese. We got a lot more out of the trip because of her-- e.g., history, local culture, other commentary. Highly recommend!

Perfect organization - Great tour operator in Xi'an that we contacted from Italy and that allowed us to do a perfect tour of Xi'an and that also organized us the day in Luoyang. A special thanks to Jasmine who followed us throughout the tour until boarding at Xi'an airport.

3 Wonderful Days in Xi'an - Jasmine Bai arranged for a driver to meet us at the airport and take us to our hotel. Faultless. Jasmine met us the following day and took us to the Terra-cotta Warriors. She was excellent, detailed, educational and most of all a pleasure. We were never rushed and spent several hours - at this unbelievable excavation. From the Terra-cotta warriors back to the City and climbed the Bell Tower and was entertained at the Drum Tower. Both fascinating. Then a stroll through the Muslim Quarter where the street food (particularly the lamb on a stick) is really good. It also provides a little insight into the narrow, busy streets of old Xi'an. Jasmine accompanied us to all stops and continued to provide insight and history. Our day concluded with a trip to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. The following day the driver took us from the hotel back to the airport. The night of our arrival we walk around the "wall" at Jasmine's suggestion. Wonderful experience. So, in summary I give Jasmine Bai my unqualified recommendation - she is highly professional, knowledgeable and pleasant. I recommend her service to all.
