Itinéraire
Votre matinée commence par un message d'accueil de votre Guide directement dans le hall de votre hôtel. Détendez-vous dans un véhicule climatisé pendant 1 heure de route jusqu'au musée de l'armée de terre cuite, alors que votre Guide Expert partage ses idées sur ce site classé au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO.
Battez les foules avec une entrée précoce et profitez d'un voyage immersif de 3 heures à travers le Premier Empereur de l'Armée de terre cuite de Chine, vieux de 2 200 ans. Vous explorerez pleinement les trois fosses funéraires abritant plus de 8 000 guerriers, chevaux et chars grandeur nature, ainsi qu'une exposition spéciale présentant des artefacts rares. Fosse 1 : Admirez l'armée massive, parallèlement à des travaux occasionnels d'excavation. Fosse 2 : Décoder les rangs des guerriers individuels à partir de leurs postures et armures. Fosse 3 : Explorez le centre de commandement de toute l'armée clandestine. Votre Guide ne se contentera pas de réciter l’histoire. Ils donneront vie au légendaire Empire Qin avec des futilités fascinantes et des secrets cachés, révélant une dynastie qui rivalisait autrefois avec l'Empire romain. Prêt à remonter le temps ?
Pour le déjeuner, faites le plein d'énergie avec un buffet haut de gamme composé de plus de 25 plats gastronomiques. Regardez les chefs préparer des spécialités locales authentiques comme des hamburgers Chinois et des nouilles arrachées à la main juste sous vos yeux dans la cuisine ouverte, tout en dégustant des plats occidentaux préférés comme des macaronis, du poulet frit et des croissants. Terminez avec une sélection de pâtisseries, de fruits et une boisson gazeuse. Évitez les restaurants touristiques bondés et les déjeuners de village de mauvaise qualité.
Retournez au centre-ville pour visiter la pagode, un autre site du patrimoine mondial et un monument de la route de la soie, où les écritures bouddhistes apportées d'Inde par le moine Xuanzang ont été traduites et diffusées à travers la Chine. Construite il y a plus de 1 300 ans, des siècles avant que Christophe Colomb ne prenne la mer, cette merveille architecturale a survécu à plus de dix tremblements de terre majeurs.
Ensuite, promenez-vous sur la muraille de la ville, vieille de 600 ans, l'ancienne fortification la plus complète de Chine. S'étendant sur près de 14 kilomètres, il offre un point de vue pour voir comment l'histoire rencontre la modernité. La location de vélos est disponible au mur à vos frais.
Passez devant le quartier musulman, le paradis de la cuisine de rue le plus animé de la ville. Les clients qui souhaitent explorer plus loin par eux-mêmes peuvent débarquer ici pour profiter de la soirée en toute autonomie. Imprégnez-vous de la vie locale animée et essayez de délicieuses nouilles froides, des autocollants en pot ou des gâteaux de riz au jujube.
Les clients débarquant au quartier musulman doivent rentrer indépendamment, tandis que d'autres profitent de notre transfert en véhicule gratuit à leur hôtel. Note : Nous offrons des options de réservation de billets, mini-groupe et visite privée. Vérifiez la disponibilité pour choisir l'ajustement parfait pour votre style de voyage.

After the pick-up at the hotel we followed the schedule. Everything was well prepared and our tour guide Carol was brilliant. Her knowledge about all the visited spots is amazing. I can highly recommed this tour.
Had a wonderful time with Carol as our tour guide. She is the only one I want if I were to do the tour again. She was attentive, helpful, and very patient and had great insights for the best photo-taking spots. The tour helped save a lot of effort planning a day in Xian and would highly recommend since the Terracotta Army is actually outside the city a little bit. Only place of improvement would be a brief confirmation of the tour happening a week prior to the tour.
Terracotta Army was definitely the highlight of the Tour. Carol, our guide definitely made our tour much more enjoyable. She explain the history on what we are seeing at each spot. She made sure the whole group was hydrated because the weather was so hot. Carol made sure we get the pictures we wanted and showed us the best spot. She took care the needs of the group. Definitely recommend getting Carol as your guide.
We are grateful for your kind review. It is wonderful to know that Carol's knowledge and thoughtful attention made your tour so memorable. From historical insights to practical care in the heat and help with photos, she clearly went out of her way to make the experience special. She will be delighted to receive your kind words, and we hope to welcome you back soon.
Lily was great. We had a great experience at a very busy time at the Terra cotta warriors. Lily was very informative and helpful. She really looked after the group. It was hot there in July so be ready with lots of water if you go in the summer.
Thank you for your generous review. We are glad that Lily's knowledge and thoughtful attention contributed to a rewarding experience for you, even during a busy season. Your feedback about the summer conditions is valuable, and we will be sure to share it with future guests.
We thoroughly enjoyed the half day tour. Carol was our guide and she was incredible! She kept us informed before the tour with pick up times but also kept us informed before the loop throughout the day. She did an amazing job teaching us some Chinese history on the bus and throughout each pit. The buffet lunch was great. We loved trying some Xi An specialities. It was a great day and we would definitely recommend this tour to others.
Thank you for your thoughtful review. We are delighted to hear that your half-day tour was such an enjoyable experience and that Carol's informative and attentive guidance made a lasting impression. Her ability to share historical insights both on the bus and throughout the pits clearly enriched your visit. It is also wonderful to know that the buffet lunch and local specialties added to the overall enjoyment of the day. We truly appreciate your recommendation！

The tour was well organized and executed. There was no waiting times or delays. The tour guide, Carol, was excellent. Provided lot of useful information for the sites but the country as well. Good experience overall
Thank you for your great review! We're so glad the tour was well organized with no waiting or delays — that's exactly what we aim for. Carol will be absolutely delighted to hear that her excellent guidance and useful insights into both the sites and the country made your experience so positive. We truly appreciate your kind words.
We took a fantastic Terracotta Army and Xi’an tour with Carol. She was very knowledgeable about each of the sites visited and Chinese history/culture more generally. We also felt the all day tour was very well paced and never felt anything lasted too long as it sometimes does with long tours. Highly recommend booking with Carol if you can!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad Carol's deep knowledge of Chinese history and culture made your Xi'an tour so enjoyable. It's great that the day never felt too long, even with so much to see. Carol will be absolutely delighted to hear your kind words. We truly appreciate your high recommendation！
Tour guide Lily was an added value to this day thanks to her information. I recommend the tour and the excursion, it was really good
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad Lily's insights added real value to your day. It's wonderful that you enjoyed the tour and the excursion. We truly appreciate your recommendation！
Our "mini-group" was 12 people, and everyone was absolutely lovely and open. Our guide, Roger, is a wealth of knowledge on the history and where to go. He's clearly passionate, at times more than our group was after. Some segments ran long, and there were moments he grew visibly frustrated when people weren't fully attentive, which shifted the mood a little. If you want a thorough, history-heavy experience, you'll appreciate his depth; if you prefer a lighter, more flexible pace, it's worth knowing that going in. A breakdown, since it's a long day: The Terracotta Army is a lengthy trip out, and I'd recommend arriving early given the crowds and temperature (depending on the season). It's fascinating even at a high level and completely worth the trek, with a lot to take in. Lunch was a delicious buffet of local cuisine and simpler basics, with freshly made noodles and soup as a highlight. The restaurant sits above an antique store, jade market, and tourist shop, so it's a real one-stop shop. The Pagoda was a highlight, and I'd have happily traded some Terracotta Army time for more here. The grounds were beautiful, the history and fountains lovely, the crowds minimal, and we could explore on our own. A nice respite from the morning. The City Wall included the wall museum and time up top. The wall is a sight, though in practice it was a walk up, a look around, and back down. Note the Muslim Bazaar isn't actually included; it's an optional drop-off if there's time, or a drop-off at the end for you to explore on your own. Overall, it was great to have a guide to shepherd us through the queues and ticket gates and have a vast knowledge. It is a long day. Recommend.
Thanks for your detailed and honest feedback! Roger will be pleased to hear that his deep knowledge and passion helped you make the most of the Terracotta Army, Pagoda, and City Wall. We also appreciate your honest note about the pacing and moments of frustration — we'll use this to help him strike a better balance for future groups. We're glad you enjoyed the buffet lunch and found the Pagoda such a highlight. Thank you for your recommendation and for helping us improve!
