Xi’an Tour with Jerry – Fun and Hassle-Free
Jerry made our Xi’an trip so enjoyable with his bubbly personality and great rapport with our twins. He recommended an excellent show about the Silk Road’s history and showed great patience with our elderly family members, ensuring they were comfortable at all times. We loved the local snacks he brought for us to try and appreciated the many great photos he took. From Terracotta tour to assisting us at airport check-in, Jerry ensured everything went smoothly, including the handoff to our next guide. A fantastic guide who made my favorite terracotta tour an informative and fun one! more
