Exceptional Day

Jenny picked us up promptly at our hotel and made sure we could navigate the train station. Picked us up at the train station at the end of our tour within 3 minutes of the train’s arrival. Would highly recommend upgraded tickets for the bullet train ride, 4hrs each way . Helen was our tour guide and was enthusiastic, energetic and shared her knowledge about the history of the terracotta soldiers and the local area. Truly engaging and is a great ambassador for her country. Helen escorted us to our train for the return trip to Beijing; it was hard to say good bye. Long day, truly remarkable, and the tour operator was accommodating to every need. Excellent communications all day long. Flawless execution of the itinerary . Highly recommended and you should not miss the experience.

Wonderful!

What an amazing experience to see the terracotta warriors. So much history and interesting info given by our guide Sarah. If possible book the business class train tickets because it is a long day on the train.

Memorable trip to see the Terracotta Worriers.

My trip to see the terracotta warriors by train from Beijing is n a single day was amazing. Andy communication with me prior to the trip was outstanding. I purchased the standard trip and Andy was able to upgrade the train tickets to business class, which I highly recommend. He made it easy to understand the logistics of the trip. He texted me via WhatsApp about the pick up time, the Guides name, location of drop off and pick up at the Xi'An train station and even texted me pictures of the train station signage and the exact location where the guide would meet me. The guide, Helen was outstanding. She had so much knowledge of the terracotta worriers, their history, meaning and the city of Xi'An in general. It was a long day, no doubt, but completely worth it to see the eight wonder of the world with such a great guide, driver and trip manager like Andy and Helen. I high key recommend this tour and the upgrade to business class for the train.
