Reviews: 1-Day Xi'an Tour: Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum (Terracotta Army) + Huaqing Palace [Chinese/English Guide]
Ernie10422026-01-25
DO: Get tickets for the Camel Bell show.  It's the best live show I've seen in China so far. DON'T: Get tickets for the optional "An Army Reborn" show.  Not worth the money, trust me. The tour guide, Star, was very informative and communicated clearly.  Tour was well organized, never rushed or boring.  By far one of the best day tours you can do if you want to learn the history of these two locations.  Both locations are mostly open-air, so make sure to dress for the weather and prepare for a reasonable amount of walking.

They picked us up from the hotel. The transport and the group were small, so it was easier to get around and organized. The guide spoke excellent English and was very friendly. The only thing was that there was a stop I wasn't aware of because it wasn't on the itinerary. We were stopped for about 1.5 hours until part of the group who wanted to do it finished and got off. It was inconvenient, but not terrible, because we slept on the bus. That nap helped us recharge our energy because we had the show in the afternoon, and from the time they drop you off at the temple until the show starts, it's a long time. The whole process is very simple and clear. After the show, they arranged a bus for us that took us to the center of Xi'an. I definitely recommend it if you want explanations about the warriors, but personally, I would have done it on my own, as it makes for a very long day. The lunch was delicious and plentiful.
Reviews: Must-See Show "Legend of Camel Bell Show" Private Half-Day Tour (Private Transfer + Buy 2 Show Tickets Get 1 Free)

The show was very enjoyable. Even if you dint understand Mandarin, you"ll kind of get the gist of the storyline, with the help of the English "subtitles", on a side board. There were live animals - camels and wolves - in a rotating auditorium. The setsand costumes were elaborate ... pretty amazing. Very entertaining. The rotation is for changing scenes ... dont worry, it is very minimal movement, you won"t feel sick.The service provider was very communicative and responsive. A staff member reached put to me via whatsapp, and provoded details of the timing of the pick-up, the driver's details (name and cell phone number), and car number.the driver will likely be early. Everything is very well organized. We were glad to have booked with this travel agency, on Trip.com.

I had a wonderful time and learned a lot during the trip. Our tour guide, Ms. Wan Qian, despite her young age, was very attentive to the travelers, providing detailed explanations of each attraction. She answered all my questions and proactively helped resolve any issues, which I greatly appreciated; my boss deserves praise for her. Furthermore, the vehicles arranged by your company were very comfortable and spacious, and the Chinese meals were plentiful and varied. I think this itinerary was excellent. I will definitely choose your company for tour arrangements again. Thank you.

Reviews: Mini Group Xian Day Tour to Terracotta Army, City Wall, Pagoda and Muslim Quarter
Nikita19052026-01-22
Excellent one-day tour in Xi'an! We visited the main highlights: the majestic Big Wild Goose Pagoda (大雁塔), the awe-inspiring Terracotta Army (兵马俑), walked along the ancient City Wall (城墙), and immersed ourselves in the atmosphere of the Muslim Quarter (回民街), where we tried the famous biangbiang noodles (面). Special thanks to our guide Angie - who led the tour with deep knowledge and enthusiasm. The driver was punctual and careful, making the trip comfortable. The tour was very informative, well-organized, and truly engaging. We got a lot of impressions and learned so much about Xi'an's rich history. Definitely recommended!
