Highlights

Xian

The Museum of Qin Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses - In the morning, our guide and driver will pick you up from your downtown hotel. We will drive about 1 hour to Terracotta Warriors. You will have about 2.5 hours exploring the Terracotta Warriors Museum. Known as “the Eighth Wonder of the World” and one of the most significant archaeological discoveries in the 20th century, the museum shows a surprisingly high level in sculpture.

Xi’an Banpo Museum - After lunch, continue to visit Banpo Neolithic village. This New Stone Age site, dating from approximately 5,000 to 4,000 B.C., is one of the most complete examples of a Neolithic agricultural settlement in the world. After the whole day’s tour, transfer back to your hotel by 16:30.

Xian

Small Goose Pagoda - The tour guide and driver will meet you at your hotel lobby. The tour will begin with Small Wild Goose Pagoda, one of the two Buddhist temples built in the Tang Dynasty. The pagoda sits in an ancient Chinese style garden. You will also have chance to visit Xian Museum to appreciate plenty of precious cultural relics.

Dayan Pagoda Northern Square - Next we will move on to North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda to admire the pagoda from a distance and enjoy some relaxing time walking on the square.

Xi’an City Wall (Chengqiang) - After lunch, we’ll head to Xian Ancient City Wall. The 600-year-old City Wall is the most completely preserved and largest city wall in China. Visitors can optionally ride bikes on the top of the City Wall to see the city from a unique angle.

Muslim Quarter - After that you will stroll around the Bell Tower and Drum Tower Square. The last stop is the Muslim Quarter. Many special local products and snacks could be found along this street.

Best tour and guide - Sophia, thank you for making it possible for us to go on your tour at such short notice. Our guide Chris is great!! Being flight attendants, our layover is often short....but thanks to Xiantours, you made it so easy and no stress for us to make this amazing 2 day tour to Xian coming from Chengdu by bullet train. We had an excellent tour in Xian with Chris despite the marathon event and itinerary change. Our lunches on the tour was so good and thanks for cathering to our "taste buds" 😋 I will highly recommend all my colleagues to use your services when they are in Chengdu to go see the sights in Xian!!

China Xian Tour - awesome - Family of 6 from Sydney Australia. Did the 2 day Terracotta Army and city sightseeing tour. China Xian Tour was awesome .. Leena - our tour advisor, was very help and friendly over email when we were planning our tour of Xian. Helped create a great itinerary for a great price which we decided to go ahead with. Everything was provided as described when we arrived. Car was nice, clean, comfortable. Tour guide (Nancy) was fantastic. Spoke English really well, and was able to provide very personalised explanation of the sights we were seeing, the history, cultural relevance etc. Leave plenty of time to see Terracotta army .. just awesome to see. City Wall was interesting .. lots of history ... Bell and Drum tower are just things to see and pass by .. not a major attraction to spend hours looking at ... but still a very impressive photo opportunity at night when it is lit up. Muslim Quarter was fascinating .. but keep your valuables and kids close to you .. very crowded .. but real eye opener .. I'd suggest be very cautious before buying anything to eat or drink there .. walk the whole street to observe whats happening and then decide for yourself .. I'd recommend staying at the Grand Noble Hotel. Amazing value .. 5 star hotel for about $150.night from memory. Friendly staff, clean big rooms, comfortable beds/pillows. Great restaurant. Great location - easy access to everything right outside the hotel.
