Wonderful experience - Went on a trip to Terra Cotta Warriors and Ming Wall. The feeling of looking at the 8th wonders is amazing. It is indeed magnificent and great. The Ming Wall was well preserved and views from the top was nice. Tour Guide Crystal Guo is a well trained guide and she was accommodating. Her knowledge is top !

Xian English day tour - I had a wonderful Xian day tour with Ms. Betty. The best part of spending the day with her was that she took the time to teach me about the local culture and history of Xian. I got so much more out of the tour because of her knowledge. I would highly recommend this tour and Ms Betty to anyone interested in an English based tour of Xian.

Great day tour around Xi’an! - Meria was a great tour guide as we saw the two pagodas, city wall, lunch at the Muslim quarter, and city museum. She is good with kids and knows much about the city and its long history. Make sure to bring your walking shoes!

Xian – If you come first time, there will be second time - Lin, who is my tour guide, has walked me through Chinese history in Qin Dysnaty with lots of stories about Qinshihuang and his Teracotta Army, which made things become alive and very exciting. Seeing the history people's craftmanship will definitely make you astonished and winder hoe they can make things to this exquisite level. Lin is more than a tour guide, but a friend. She spent whole day with me, accompanying me, sharing Xian's history and introducing local food with me. I highly recommand this tour for everyone. Thank you so much, Lin.

Xian your way - fantastic guide! - Lin was a fantastic and enthusiastic guide for my day tour - extremely knowledgeable and friendly! As a solo female traveler, she helped me tailor a plan for my one day tour based on my preferences and recommendations I had received from friends. She even gave detailed recommendations for the rest of my time in Xian! You can tell she really loves what she does - left a wonderful memory of the city for me!

Xi'an Tour - Incredible tour. Hard to pick a favourite spot. For history the Terracotta Warriors can't be beat. The guide, Lin, was very knowledgeable and had lots of information that she was ready to share. For food and culture, the Muslim Quarter is also excellent and I would thoroughly recommend it to anybody wanting to immerse themselves into Xi'an's local customs and flavours. The guide had a lot of local knowledge, and was able to show off the absolute best parts of the area, and was always ready to answer any questions.
