Your private guide and driver will meet you in hotel lobby around 08:00, driving time is around 4 hours to Houkou water fall. The Yellow River, China's second largest river, carries billions of tonnes of sediment from the fertile Loess Plateau eastwards to the crop fields of the Chinese Heartland. Today, this raging river is responsible for half of China's wheat production. This is a must-see for those visiting the Shaanxi province for nature site of China. The brown and muddy water of the Yellow River pours down like from the nozzle of a teapot, hence its name Hukou (teapot nozzle). Water rushes down in huge bursts, throwing up beautiful water splashes. Then the roar of the waterfall echoes from the cave and adds to the sensational experience. Special lunch will be provide in a local farm house after water fall stop, you will try Yellow river side people daily meal like Cyprinus carpio in Yellow River, Yam fork fork, etc, then take another 3-4 hour drive back Xi’an downtown hotel.

Our experience was fantastic. Our guide Kathy and our driver Mr. Wang were very helpful. Especially Kathy, she is accommodating, well knowledgeable about Xian. Additionally my daughter liked her very and the chinese hairstyle she did on her. Overall I would recommend this tour to see China's history and if you request for a tour guide, get Kathy, you will learn a lot.

The tour to Hukou waterfall was amazing! My guide Jackie and Mr Wang my driver were wonderful. Even though it was a long drive it was peaceful viewing the beautiful countryside. They were very patient while I spent time meditating at the falls and ordered me a delicious lunch after. I feel blessed to have been to such a magnificent place with great company. I highly recommend their services for any tour. You will not be disappointed!
