Itinerary
Your private guide and driver will meet you in your hotel lobby at 8:30 AM, or at a time of your choosing. Travel in comfort by private vehicle to the Terracotta Warriors, avoiding crowded public transport. Upon arrival, enjoy approximately 2.5 hours to explore this UNESCO World Heritage site. Your guide will lead you through the three main excavation pits (Pit 1, Pit 2, and Pit 3), which contain nearly 8,000 life-sized terracotta figures and horses. Each statue is uniquely crafted with remarkably vivid expressions, offering a breathtaking glimpse into ancient history. After the museum visit, your driver will take you back to Xi'an. You then have the option to extend your day with 1-2 additional city attractions. Popular choices include the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the ancient City Wall, or a local cultural show (admission fees are not included). At the end of your personalized journey, your guide and driver will send you to your hotel.
The Xi'an City Wall is the largest and most completely preserved ancient city wall in existence in China. The Xi'an City Wall is a striking landmark of the ancient city. Just like people, cities must have their own distinct personalities. As an ancient historical and cultural city, Xi'an's distinct urban personality is reflected in its urban architecture. You can follow your guide to climb onto the city wall. While listening to the guide's historical explanations, you can overlook Xi'an from the city wall. Renting a bicycle on the city wall and experiencing a cycling journey is also a good choice.
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is one of the symbols preserved in Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty to this day. The existing stone inscriptions further confirm the history of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and the spread of Buddhism on the Silk Road. The palm-leaf scriptures collected in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda are also extremely precious Buddhist cultural relics. Within the structure, a spiral staircase leads up to an overlook with a panoramic view of the city.
30km (18.6 miles) east of Xi'an and beside the Terracotta Army, Huaqing Palace features the Imperial Pools of the Tang Dynasty (618 - 907), Pear Garden, Frost Flying Hall, Nine-Dragon Lake, Five-Room Building and Mount Li. Huaqing Pool is famous for the romantic love story of Tang Emperor Xuanzong and his concubine Yang Yuhuan.
The Legend of Camel Bell is shown in Xi 'an Huaxia Cultural Tourism Grand Theater. It is designed as a large ellipsoid building 142 meters long, 128 meters wide and about 50 meters high, which can accommodate 3,000 people to watch performances at the same time.

Our day in Xi’an was absolutely unforgettable thanks to Emily, who is hands-down one of the most knowledgeable and helpful guides we’ve ever met. From the moment we started, her communication was spot-on, making the entire experience feel seamless and stress-free. Whether we were marveling at the scale of the Terracotta Army, exploring the Palace of the Emperor, or walking the ancient City Walls, Emily’s passion for history really shone through; she has a way of telling stories that makes the past feel alive rather than just reciting facts. To top it off, she ended our day at the theatre with some truly amazing local food recommendations that were easily the best meals of our trip. She felt less like a formal guide and more like a well-connected friend showing us her city. If you want a deep dive into the culture with someone who genuinely cares about your experience, Emily is the one to call.
