Terracotta Warriors Museum Ticket met professionele Engelssprekende gids

Went here after we arrived at the hotel in Xian. We waited in reception and the rep came and found us. We were driven there in a luxury car and our guide got the tickets and everything for us as we entered. During the journey the guide gave us a detailed history of the area including how the warriors were found. The site is about 60 miles outside of the city and after parking your car at the entrance you climb aboard small trailers to take you to the entrance where you have your tickets checked. You will need your passport too unless you have a copy of this on your mobile phone for checking purposes. The guide gave us small ear mic's so we could hear her speaking as we entered the place. It was packed and we had to wait to get a front row view to the warriors. They are amazing. At the front, in the left corner, is the area where the warriors were originally found from the digging of the soil to find the water. At the back of the area is a place they call the hospital where pieces of pottery are put together when they can find the rest of the items. There are are also horses in the pits. The size of the area is quite large and you walk in at the main entrance and often walk along the right towards the rear entrance. Our guide gave us a detailed chronology of events and after leaving the pit we moved out towards the museum. The objects in there are fascinating. There is a warrior with the signature of its maker on it, there is a detailed shoe pattern of a warrior. There are jugglers and musicians etc and the museum on its own is fascinating. My wife wondered if we might have another visit on our own without a guide, but this was a once in a lifetime visit and the museum is exceptional. One of the best places we have ever visited during our travels After leaving the museum we were taken to a small bookshop in case we wanted to purchase a book from the man who found them, he is still alive and making living from his find. Great man. We decided not to get anything there and then we were taken to a small restaurant for lunch. This was lovely too and so cheap. After this we left the area and our guide took us to a show about the history of the Silk Road and I have reviewed that separately. Following this we were returned to our hotel and once returned we paid the bill through Wiipay. Can't remember how much we paid for the Warriors, the transport the Silk Road and the lunch but whatever we paid it was worth it. This was one of the best days we ever had on holiday and we are so glad that we did it. If you get the opportunity to visit this place you must. It is one of the best museum artefacts we have ever seen and is not to be missed by anyone in the area.

A bit confusing meet up information, however we had a fantastic guide, Wangkai. We enjoyed thorough knowledge & also his pace getting us to the best spots. Recommend doing the 830 tour

SPECTACULAR. The visit of the warriors, the company of the SUPER ATTENTIVE guide. We were also guided in the shopping. And the final virtual tour is awesome

Wonderful day with Alisa as the perfect guide. Pickup was prompt and Alisa knew exactly where to take us to avoid the crowds and get the best out of the experience.

A great tour if you want to see the highlights of the Terracotta Army. The guide was really knowledgeable and friendly

Booking process is easy and smooth. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Communication was great. Plus, the english tour guide we had in china was fantastic! Our tour was on 9th April. He was very knowledgeable and have had many years experience. At the end of the tour he also showed us a restaurant with good variety of authentic Xi'an food, and we had lunch there. We had great experience. Thanks to Viator staff and our tour guide giving us a happy visit in Xi'an.

Top! Can only be recommended! Again and again!

Excellent tour! Wangkai was our guide and he was very knowledgeable about the Terracotta warriors and their history. He helped us navigate the large crowds and ran the tour at a good pace, focusing on the important parts. I would definitely recommend Wangkai and this tour, thanks for teaching us the culture and history!

Seeing the Terracotta Warriors with Mia our guide was well worth it. Mia was very informative giving us little tidbits of information that we would not have known otherwise. All in all a very worthwhile experience again be prepared for a lot of people but that’s nothing new in China

We were incredibly lucky to have Wangkai as our guide at the Xi’an Terracotta Warriors Museum. With more than 30 years of experience, his knowledge was extraordinary—rich in history, detail and insight, and delivered with such clarity and passion that the site truly came alive for us. What made the experience especially memorable, though, was Wangkai’s kindness and attentiveness beyond the tour itself. He helped us thoughtfully when choosing jade and arranging the carving of my Chinese name, taking care to explain meanings and traditions along the way. When we mentioned how disappointed we were that we were leaving Xi’an just before the snow, he went above and beyond—later sending us a video of the snowfall so our son could experience it too. It was such a thoughtful, generous gesture and completely unexpected. Wangkai didn’t just guide us through a world-famous site; he made our time in Xi’an feel personal, warm and unforgettable. He truly made the experience all the more enjoyable and meaningful, and we would recommend him without hesitation to anyone visiting the Terracotta Warriors.
