We had an awesome private day tour with our family of 5 (including 3 teenagers) and Michael, along with our driver, Mr. Wong. We checked out the Xi'an City Wall, Muslim Quarter, and the Terracotta Warriors, and had lunch at a great spot where we tried the famous Biang Biang noodles. Michael really went out of his way to make everything perfect for us. Even though it was blazing hot at 35 degrees, he made sure we were comfortable. The kids had a blast cycling a part of the Xi'an Wall. We highly recommend Lily's tour with Michael—thanks for making it such a great day!
We recently went on a tour of China that included Xi'an as an optional extra. We ticked the box to visit Xi'an and were rewarded with a fantastic, not-to-be-forgotten experience, and easily the highlight of our trip. The Xi'an City Wall was a standout. I feel for those other tourists who didn't tick the Xi'an box—they might have saved a few dollars but missed a remarkable place, surely a wonder of the world. If you plan to visit China, make sure Xi'an is on the itinerary.
Xi'an is truly a historical gem, with the Terracotta Warriors and Big Goose Pagoda being standout highlights. Our 2-day trip was well-organized thanks to Lily and Bonnie, making the most of every moment. We enjoyed the Tang Dynasty Show, explored the Bell Tower, wandered through the lively Muslim Quarter, and walked the ancient City Wall. The Shaanxi History Museum was a fantastic addition. Our hotel was very comfortable, which was a relief after our long, busy days. For a more relaxed visit, consider extending your stay. This tour fit perfectly between our Beijing commitments, and we highly recommend it for anyone eager to dive into Xi'an’s rich history.

I don't have any idea for my first time tour Xian China, I contacted Xian Private Tour and tour consultant was e-mail to me following day then I got start my tour plan. My guide Anna and my driver Mr. Zhang both are so kind and we had great two days. Met with smile at Xian airport and given a friendly and relaxed introduction. Refreshingly, Anna started off with some small-talk and worked to get to know me before getting into the schedule, which laid a great foundation of rapport for the rest of the trip.
Anna did an excellent 5-star job! Her English was great and I understood her perfectly. I visited so many places and Anna always told me a lot of the history and information about the sites, buildings and the city. It is amazing how many background knowledgeable she has.
My driver, Mr. Zhang, was a very safe and professional driver navigating the Xian traffic. He was always able to drop me off very close to attractions and promptly pick me up. The car was very clean and comfortable. Mr. Zhang always had water ready for me, was polite and always open my door to make sure I didn't have to get in or out of the car in close traffic.
Overall, I'm very happy I booked through Xian Private Tour. I was given a great tour guide, a modern car to drive in, a busy but manageable schedule, and left with a taste of Xian and wanting more. Highly recommend Xian Private Tour if you are going to Xian.

We just finished this 2 days private travel package of Xian's highlights with our tour guide, Jennifer. She made our Xian tour exceptional! She was prompt to meet us, professional, spoke beautiful English and adapted the tour to our needs. She took us to the Terracotta Warriors, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and we enjoy a beautiful dumpling dinner, watched the typical Tang Dynasty show, which I highly recommend. The next day we visited the Bell Tower, Ancient City Wall and Shaanxi History Museum. Jennifer's depth of knowledge about the tour sites was impressive and accurate. She shared about Chinese history and all of the symbols and other details of the sights to us. Jennifer also kept a leisure pace, answered all our stupid questions, took our photos.
The driver and car was also excellent, and plenty of cold bottled water was provided. We really enjoyed a couple of local restaurants that Jennifer recommend and tourists would not normally know about.
If you are able to go to China and take a private tour I would recommend Xian Private Tour. If you could get Jennifer as your guide you would be very lucky. Thank you Jennifer we will always remember our tour with you.
Bonnie our consultant was very professional and efficient. She delivered the train tickets to our Beijing hotel before we check-in and provided detailed information to make sure we can board the train smoothly. The transport from our hotel to Beijing train station and back after our trip arrived promptly. Our Xian guide Lisa was amazing and couldn't do enough for us. She was friendly, cheerful, patient and was able to answered all our questions and queries about Xian and the Terracotta Army. Whilst in Xian Bonnie even called us to check that everything was OK. We were took very good care of them. The 5* hotel in Xian was great as well.
