Today was the best day! The driver and guy were early and on point and ready for the day. Amy is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Xi’an! I learned so much in such a short period of time it was simply amazing. The pandas were plenty and the dumplings we to die for. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, but must say that Amy made it 10 times better. Cannot recommend this tour enough!
We loved every minute of the tour. Our guide Meggie was amazing, she knew all the answers to our questions and taught us many interesting facts. Honestly one of the best tours we have had since living in China. The driver and private van were amazing and the food was incredible. We are glad we got to experience an amazing day with such wonderful hosts!
