Our family was truly captivated by our tour of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in Xi'an. The guide was punctual, ensuring we started our journey as planned, and the transport provided was both spacious and comfortable. The guide's insights and approachability made the tour extremely enjoyable. Every inquiry we had was met with clarity. Definitely suggest this tour for anyone seeking an enriching exploration of these historic wonders

Very good run through about the different areas we visited, English was splendid and the understanding of everything we went through was clear and interesting. I would recommend this to more people. Even though there were some issues with my communication to the organisers they managed to solve it and give a good tour! This was my first guided tour so likely not my last either 👍

It was a very nice day trip and the Terracotta Warriors was the highlight...Jason was very friendly and my kids aged 9 & 10 were very happy with Jason and the way he explained everything. The Xi'an wall was also nice to get up to but kids could not cycle as there were height restrictions...but still...nice. The trip deserves a 5* but was thinking of giving a 4* due to the van issue (not the driver)..the van was rickety and wobbly in the back.. .. but, Jason guide was so good that I made it 5. Please spend around 20 rmb each on the whisperer device...it was very good to have taken that.

I contacted Grace over wechat (I'm the 40yr old with some Chinese) and it was very convenient to negotiate places and get a recommendation of where to stay. I enjoy staying at hostels, and so I confirmed the ones were near enough to fit with budget. I validated most of the rest of the trip and am able to get around on subways and bus in China, but you may want full service. (we chose full service in Zhangjiajie) I hope most tourists would like to know more about how the Chinese people live, and the famous places are very well run, and are part of the story. Wendy was very professional and easy to understand. I think it was a bit ambitious to bike around the wall in only 1hr, so choose a way, go for 20min, then come back. we stopped at most of the bathrooms just because of the group. We got to meet the man who found the terracotta army! I dont think we would have had the memorable experience without having our guide. A younger group would be able to catch an early bus to huashan and see all peaks, but we were not that group. my legs were jello. very glad to have things explained before hiking. I've seen temples and pagodas and such before, but the suggestions of where to go after were different enough to be interesting. i am guessing we were a tough group to work with because we did a lot of our own planning. We stayed at a hostel (picked to to be close to recommended hotel) and chose G360 train to arrive on, and flight to zhangjiajie after. so we had lots of details to discuss with Grace, and she was very gracious. she also helped us with the zhangjiajie portion. we went in the off season. wear layers.
