Rosa is really sweet and very knowledgeable. She knows the best routes to take and where to go shopping for souvenirs. I lost my wallet on de bus we took to and from Xi'an and she quickly helped me recover it, delivered straight to my hotel! Awesome guide!

"Rossa is detailed, caring, and advised us on avoiding scams. She also recommended good, affordable Muslim restaurants
"Rosa is detailed in her explanations; she is concerned about our well-being and advised us to avoid being cheated by local touts.
She is approachable and recommended excellent Muslim restaurants with good food at reasonable prices.
I would also like to highlight our driver, Mr. Chang, who is caring, humble, and helpful. He always assists the older folks in getting in and out of the vehicles.
I am pleased that he always waited for us at the appointed place and even walked in to fetch us to the vehicle.
His service is greatly appreciated."

Clear and great explanation of Xi'an and the different dynasties and the Terra Cotta by Rosa
Rosa was our guide. She did a fabulous job in explaining the history of Xi'an, the different dynasties and the Terra Cotta warriors to us in English.
Her explanation was clear and we could understand her well. She did not rush through her explanation and the tour. She also showed us the Terra Cotta warriors with colours.
We had a much better understanding of Xi'an after her explanation and really enjoyed the tour.
I would highly recommend Rosa to any travellers looking for a guide in Xi'an.

Great Service! Good value for money, entertaining and very educational!
We booked Rosa for a private tour to the Terracotta Warriors and would recommend it to anyone! She arrived at our hotel on time, our driver had a good smelling, very well equipped car. Immediately after boarding, she told us a lot about the history of China, Xi‘an and the Terracotta Army and accompanied it with pictures. Rosa speaks a nice understandable English. After a very entertaining ride, she ushered us well through the crowds and showed us the best spots for photos and interesting things.
We recommend Rosa without restriction.

Terracotta army
Beautiful tour of the terracotta army. Pick up at the hotel and transfer to the archaeological site. Rosa is very prepared and juggles quickly in the crowd. He speaks very understandable English even to those who do not master it very well. Great lunch, day ended with a bike ride on the walls.
Rosa is very kind and nice, great experience!

Great Tour with Rosa
The tour with Rosa was great. She told us a lot about the history of Xi’an and answered our questions, which was super interesting. Additionally, she gave us a very detailed introduction to the Terracotta Army. On top of that, Rosa is a very friendly and kind person. It was a fantastic day, and we would definitely recommend it!
