About this activity

If you're keen on exploring local culture and looking to get past language barriers, an English-speaking local guide would be a fantastic asset—they’ll make your trip smoother and more meaningful. This tour is also a great fit for those on a tight budget. When it comes to private transport, taxis are a cheaper and efficient option, and the guide can handle all the arrangements for you. With this setup, you can visit three spots in Xi’an even with limited time and a modest budget.

Begin your tour with a pickup from your hotel lobby at 8:00 AM or a time of your choice. Head to the Terracotta Army, a must-see attraction in Xi'an. Marvel at the thousands of life-sized soldiers and horses that were buried with the first Emperor of China.

Next, choose two more attractions to visit from options like the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, City Wall, Muslim Quarter, and Huaqing Palace. Customize your itinerary to suit your interests and make the most of your time in Xi'an.

Itinerary

The Museum of Qin Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses

3 hours Admission not included

Avoid crowded tour buses and slow-moving tour groups with a handy private driver to take you to the famous Terracotta Warriors. Drive direct to Lintong district, about an hour east of Xi’an, to visit the warriors at the tomb of Emperor Qin Shi Huang. Customize your schedule for the day based on where you want to go: choose two more attractions in downtown Xi’an to visit afterward, and drive there without any unnecessary detours or stops at places you aren’t interested in.
Giant Wild Goose Pagoda

one hour Admission not included

The Giant Wild Goose Pagoda is located in the Da Ci'en Temple(Great Mercy Temple). It is a pagoda with a history of more than 1,300 years. This was once the place where the famous Tang Dynasty monk Xuanzang(Tripitaka) translated Buddhist scriptures, and the spread of Buddhism in China also began here.
Xi'an City Wall

one hour Admission not included

Xi'an city wall is the only intact city wall kept in China and is now the landmark of Xi'an. With the length of 13.74 kilometers, the wall is in a rectangular shape in a perfect defense system.

Most Muslims came to Xi'an along the Silk Road in Tang Dynasty (600-900AD). They studied, worked and intermarried with the local people and settled here until now. In this area, you will see a great deal of foreign spices, many Muslim restaurants and some souvenirs as well.
