Excellent service and amazing experience
Susan was the guide for our family of 1 senior citizen, 2 adults, 1 teenager on holiday in Xi'an. She met us as the train station and helped us check in to the hotel. She arranged for us to borrow a wheelchair for our sightseeing and that was extremely helpful. more

More to see in Xi’An than Terracotta Warriors
Jenny was our guide. She did an excellent job. Her familiarity with the area & with the Terracotta Warriors made our visit there amazing. She was able to guide us to the perfect spot for the best photos and took the time to give us the history so we had a full understanding of what we were seeing. more
