Itinerary
Our private tour guide and driver will meet you at your hotel around 9:00 am. (The guide will call you the night before the meeting to confirm the pick-up time.)
After the meeting, you will be transferred to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum (visiting time 2-3 hours), the most significant discovery of the 20th century. Known as “The Eighth Wonders of the World,” the museum shows a surprisingly high level of sculpture. On the way to Terracotta Warriors, you will pay a visit to the Terracotta Figures factory (visiting time about 40 minutes), which focuses on the reproduction of Terracotta figures.
After having lunch (at your own expense) near the Terracotta Warriors, you will be escorted back to the city to visit the South Square of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda (visiting time: 1 hour). Here you can see the landmark building of Xi'an - the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, a world heritage site. The tour guide will explain the historical story behind it to you. Nowadays, the square is a popular entertainment venue for locals.
After the tour, you will be escorted back to the hotel.

We came in by train and as planned the tour guide (Cathy) was there to receive us. We were short on time just a day in Xi’an and everything was planned to the T so that we could cover our activities. We were left with surplus time to experience a bunch of other things too. Cathy was fabulous with immense knowledge and super professional with great English. Must do the tours with them!
Dear Anshuman, Thank you so much for choosing our company to share your day in Xian. So glad to know that you had a great time with our guide Cathy and she did a great job. She will be very delighted to know that you liked her service. Thanks again for recommending us. If you ever come to China again, please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be greatly honored to provide service for you. Sincerely, Grace | China Xian Tour
