Xi'an Tours
As the ancient capital of 13 imperial dynasties, Xi'an's size equals 13 times that of New York and six times that of London with a population that's about twice the size of Sydney's. It looks like a modern city but its real beauty lies in the unparalleled historical and cultural atmosphere.
With 20+ years' tour planning experience, we understand that attractions are important but insider's perspective and personal experiences bring you more sweet memory. Start planning with your Xi'an expert travel advisor, explore Xi'an with your local guide to unveil secrets of the city day by day.

2.5 days in Xian

Helen helped with a quickly arranged Covid test at a local centre to smooth future travel. Next day was the Terracotta Warriors, Big Wild Goose Pagoda and Mosque. Amazing history and not too crowded with plenty of time to explore with excellent local restaurant for dumpling lunch . Helen went through loads of background info at each site adding to the experience and assisted with bartering at the markets. The final day required a late switch of museum and to the little wild goose pagoda which Helen organized efficiently and also played museum guide, I’m not sure what she doesn’t know about Chinese history. Helen was also helpful with our individual onward travel plan changes and our obsession with coffee. more
