Reviews: Xi'an Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum Terracotta Army half-day tour with expert guide and hotel transfer
Guest User2025-12-26
This half-day tour of the Terracotta Warriors was fantastic overall, a fulfilling and comfortable experience. Special praise goes to our guide, Ms. Xing Yajuan; she was incredibly thoughtful, professional, meticulous, and patient. Originally scheduled for 9:30 to 11:30, she led us for a full three hours, without any rush. She also made sure to check on everyone's needs, such as photo opportunities, restroom breaks, souvenir purchases, and whether we were pressed for time. Knowing that many of us dislike crowds, she would deliberately take us to less congested areas for explanations, making the experience clearer and more enjoyable. Ms. Xing has an exceptional understanding of the details of the terracotta warriors, explaining everything from clothing, hairstyles, and expressions to weapons and formations in a vivid and insightful way. I learned a great deal and gained a deeper appreciation for the awe-inspiring nature of the Terracotta Warriors. I highly recommend Ms. Xing Yajuan; she is one of the best and most dedicated guides I've ever encountered on any tour.

Reviews: 1-Day Xi'an Tour: Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum (Terracotta Army) + Huaqing Palace [Chinese/English Guide]

DO: Get tickets for the Camel Bell show.  It's the best live show I've seen in China so far. DON'T: Get tickets for the optional "An Army Reborn" show.  Not worth the money, trust me. The tour guide, Star, was very informative and communicated clearly.  Tour was well organized, never rushed or boring.  By far one of the best day tours you can do if you want to learn the history of these two locations.  Both locations are mostly open-air, so make sure to dress for the weather and prepare for a reasonable amount of walking.

A very positive experience on the tour with our tour guide Iris. She was a helpful guide in explaining everything and also made the ticketing process seamless. The detail on the Terracotta warriors themselves is extremely impressive.

I'm currently traveling throughout China. The Terracotta Warriors and Huaqing Pond are far from downtown Xi'an, and it's also difficult to secure tickets for the "Jiang Han" performance, one of China's four major performances, at Huaqing Pond. Therefore, I applied for transportation and performance tickets. Listening to the English explanations provided by @Luna's guide made the experience comfortable. They even picked me up at my hotel in the morning. 1) While touring the Huaqing Pond, the guide explained various points of interest. 2) We had a lunch of bean sprout noodles in front of the Terracotta Warriors (there were also dumplings and other options). 3) While viewing the Terracotta Warriors, our guide Luna provided detailed explanations. 4) We returned to Huaqing Pond and waited until the performance. During this time, we exchanged our pre-purchased tickets with our passports. I was seated for the first performance. 5) After watching the "Jiang Han" performance, it was fantastic. I'd love to see it from the front row next time. After the performance, we boarded the bus back to the Bell Tower from the designated parking lot. Thanks to Luna's friendly and attentive guidance, I had a fulfilling day. Thank you. I already want to go back to Xi'an, a city of history and culture.

Finally arrived at Mount Hua, and it's truly magnificent! By chance, I learned that China boasts one of the most beautiful mountains in the world, and only by visiting Mount Hua can one truly appreciate the wonders of nature. I'd been looking forward to this for so long, and finally arriving at Mount Hua left me speechless with amazement. God created such breathtaking scenery! To all my friends reading this, I sincerely invite you to visit this mountain; only you can truly understand my excitement. Mount Hua is incredibly steep, with a vertical drop of 2,000 meters. Riding the cable car was an exhilarating experience, like an extreme sport. The clouds flowed outside the cable car, everything seemingly within reach. The view from the summit resembled a Chinese painting; everything was a miracle, a truly perfect trip. There are Taoist temples at the summit, offering a fascinating glimpse into the mysterious culture of the East. Ancient Chinese poets and emperors wrote many poems here. I am very grateful to the service staff; they were extremely professional and their service was incredibly friendly and polite. Seeing some reviews complaining about the travel time and service attitude made me very worried about encountering the same problems. The entire trip was very comfortable. The staff explained that the previous incident was due to extremely challenging weather conditions in Xi'an, a once-in-a-century rainstorm. The tourists hadn't requested French-speaking service and hadn't communicated with the staff promptly. They didn't understand that the scenic area required extra waiting time for safety reasons. I appreciated the professionalism of the staff, and I felt very lucky not to encounter such extreme weather. My tour guide, Mr. Zhao, was very humorous, friendly, and professional. He provided meticulous and professional arrangements, informing us of the detailed departure time and scenic area tips, which were extremely helpful. Thank you very much, Mr. Zhao Chen, for your service and enthusiasm.
