Begin your exploration with a visit to the majestic Xi'an Ancient City Wall. This impressive structure, built during the Ming Dynasty, encircles the old city and provides a unique glimpse into Xi'an's historic past. Spanning over 13.7 kilometers, the wall offers panoramic views of both the ancient and modern cityscape. As you walk or cycle along the top, you'll feel the weight of history and see how this grand fortification once protected the city. Your experienced tour guide will enrich your visit with fascinating insights into the wall's history and strategic significance. They will share engaging stories about its construction and the role it played in defending the ancient city. Whether you're strolling along the ramparts or enjoying a bike ride, your guide will be there to ensure you make the most of your time, answering any questions you may have and pointing out key landmarks and features. Their expertise will help you fully appreciate the historical grandeur of this iconic monument.
After your enriching visit to the Shaanxi History Museum, proceed to the iconic Big Wild Goose Pagoda, a monumental symbol of Xi'an's cultural and historical heritage. Built in 652 AD during the Tang Dynasty by the esteemed monk Xuan Zang, this seven-story brick pagoda was designed to house the Sanskrit scriptures, Buddhist statues, and relics he brought from India. Standing over 64 meters tall, it was once the tallest structure in Chang’an and remains a significant landmark. At the southern square of Ci En Temple, a bronze statue of Xuan Zang commemorates his pivotal role in the development of Buddhism. Despite leaning over one meter due to the passage of time, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda continues to captivate visitors with its historical grandeur and architectural elegance.
Later, you'll visit the Great Mosque of Xi'an, the largest mosque in China and an active place of worship located in the vibrant Xi'an Muslim Quarter. As you arrive, our expert guide will enrich your experience with detailed explanations about the mosque's history and architectural beauty. The mosque, primarily constructed during the early Ming Dynasty, spans over 12,000 square meters and includes more than twenty buildings spread across five serene courtyards. Our professional driver ensures a smooth journey to the mosque, allowing you to focus on exploring its stunning features and learning about its cultural significance.
Your final stop is the bustling Muslim Quarter, the largest of its kind in China, covering 31 hectares (76 acres) and housing around 22,000 residents. Located in the northwest corner of Xi'an's Old City, it is accessible through historic gates such as St. Stephen's Gate (Lion's Gate), Herod's Gate, and Damascus Gate. At the heart of the quarter lies the lively shuk, a maze of ancient streets and alleyways that have been in use for over a thousand years. Here, you can explore a vibrant marketplace brimming with spices, textiles, meats, vegetables, and a variety of local and tourist fare, offering an immersive experience into the unique flavors and culture of Xi'an.
Walking along this twisted, narrow street which is aligned with stores on both sides, you can see that Muslim men with white hats sit inside the stores and talk leisurely with each other. In front of the doors of some stores, old men with white beards sit on the cane chairs enjoying the tender touch of the sun and having fun with the little children running along the street. The main goods of these stores are authentic hand-making Muslim food which tastes very good. While still there are small stores selling the special local products of Shaanxi Province and yet others provide you with exquisite souvenirs.
As your tour comes to an end, our attentive guide and skilled driver will ensure a seamless conclusion to your day. Your guide will recap the day's highlights and offer any final insights, while our professional driver will handle all logistics, smoothly transporting you back to your hotel or the Xi'an train station. With their expertise and care, you can unwind and reflect on the memorable experiences of the day, knowing that every detail is taken care of as you arrive at your next destination.

Our tour guide Roger was absolutely brilliant from start to finish! His extensive knowledge made every aspect of the tour engaging, as he shared fascinating insights into the culture, history, and landmarks we visited. He went above and beyond to ensure our experience was seamless and enjoyable. He helped us organize tickets for the evening theater show and later took us to a local billiards hall to play pool, which was such a unique and fun way to end the day! His warm personality, attention to detail, and dedication to making our trip memorable truly stood out. We highly recommend Roger for an unforgettable experience!
The Xi'an City Wall is an incredible piece of history! If you want to see the entire wall, consider renting a bicycle on the top of the wall. Many couples dress up in elaborate period dress and take wedding pictures on the top of the wall making it an even nicer treat. Don't forget to check out the Big Wild Goose Pagoda nearby too. It's another great spot that fits right in with Xi'an's rich history.
Our family trip, with both kids and grandparents, was really well-paced—just right, not too fast or too slow. Rosa, our guide, was super patient and always attentive to what we needed. She gave us lots of helpful info during the tour and did her best to answer all our questions. Biking along the city walls was a big highlight for us, even with the hot weather, but we managed with sunscreen and got drinks from the kiosks along the way. Rosa made sure everyone, young and old, felt comfortable, and it really made the whole trip more enjoyable.
What a fantastic way to spend my last day in Xi’an! Rosa and her driver, Mr. Zheng, met me at my hotel at 8 AM, and from that moment, everything was perfect. We started with a visit to the Big Goose Pagoda and wrapped up the day with a stroll along the Xi’an Wall. Rosa really took care of me, making the day completely stress-free. She was a wealth of knowledge, sharing fascinating details about the history at each site we visited. The Tuo Ling Legend show was spectacular, but the Terracotta Warriors were the absolute highlight of my trip—the main reason I came to Xi’an. This was hands down the best experience I had in China, thanks to Rosa! 10/10!
Our family had an absolute blast on the Historical Xi'an City Tour! From the very start, the company impressed us with their quick responses to our inquiries and a thoughtfully crafted itinerary. Amy, our guide, was a true gem—her vibrant storytelling and passion for Xi'an’s history made the entire tour captivating for both adults and kids. Each site we visited was fascinating, but it was Amy’s engaging explanations and the smooth, comfortable ride that made the day truly special. The whole experience was fun, educational, and incredibly well-organized, making it a fantastic family adventure we won’t soon forget!
