Carly_Y, Oct 2026
Andy was a phenomenal tour guide! He gave an in depth tour about the history of Xi'an and the each exhibit of the Terracotta warriors. It was easy to understand and follow, and he was able to answer many questions from the tour group. We learned a lot and also had time to look at the exhibits on our own. He and his family also very graciously hosted us for lunch. This was delicious and very special. Highly recommend Andy as a tour guide when you are in Xi'an!

Amazing day in Xian!

Ariel_R, Sep 2026
I visited the terracotta soldiers with my husband. My guide Andy was great! He had so many great suggestions and took nice photos for us. He also allowed us to choose if we wanted to extend our tour or book discounted options through him. Very useful because we did a day trip in Xian. We also ate lunch with his family in the Xian village. This was a very good tour. We really enjoyed it and Andy is so welcoming. I'm happy to support his business. He's an honest and kind guide and also extremely knowledgeable. I could tell he's definitely an expert!! He's also originally from Xian. Perfect! Thanks again Andy. 😊

Don’t hesitate!

Vanessa_S, Sep 2026
Highly recommend this trip. I travelled with my two young teen kids and we had a fabulous time. Andy was a great communicator so we knew exactly when he’d pick us up. He knew all the good spots to stand in the pits for the best views, had great knowledge of the site and history, and shared interesting insights into Chinese daily life. Lunch was absolutely delicious - Andy’s Dad cooked about ten different dishes, all local and fresh and healthy and delicious. A mix of vegetable dishes, chicken and pork. His mum was lovely and it was clear they were a genuine family business who wanted to share their culture and history with visitors. Don’t hesitate.

Fun and informative- delicious food

Dafra_S, Sep 2026
We had an amazing experience. the tour was extremely prompt; hotel pick up was exactly at the time indicated. the drive from Xi'an to the Terracotta Warriors site was straightforward, with our guide Andy regaling us with tales about growing up in China, and also pointing things out around the city of Xi'an as we drove by. The tour itself was incredibly fun. we had nice spots to take pictures, and good view points. The place was crowded but we could still see things. Andy had an extensive knowledge of the history, discovery, restoration of the terracotta warriors and lots of anecdotes. sidenote- get the earpiece to hear him properly. THE FOOD AT LUNCH!! oh my goodness the food was excellent- it was some of the best food we had this trip. Simple fare with fresh vegetables, so tasty. We all loved it, Kids and adults alike. I highly recommend this tour. thank you so much Andy for being such a great guide and also such a great host. Greetings and thanks to your family.

China’s ancient past.

Jacqueline_E, Sep 2026
Terracotta warriors are really a wonder of the world and are a must see in China if you are interested in China’s extraordinary history. Out fabulous guide Luna brought this life with her knowledge of the warriors. She even taught us some Chinese characters on the drive back. We got picked up and dropped off rights outside our hotel and lunch in the local village was delicious. I couldn’t recommend Luna and this tour highly enough.

Highly recommend this tour to the Terracotta Warriors

Neil_J, Aug 2026
This was a fabulous tour and just perfect for a trip to the Warriors. Irene was fabulous, very knowledgeable and her English was perfect. Irene gave us a history of Xi’an and the dynasties and lots of details about how the warriors were found, and the restoration work. We had plenty of time in each place and Irene was happy to answer our questions, lunch with the family was also really good. So many wonderful dishes and great to chat with the other travellers. Bus was comfortable, driver was excellent too. Would highly recommend.

Such a well organised tour from start to finish. Our guide Andy was amazing - his knowledge and enthusiasm made the whole experience. That’s what a person who truly loves their job looks like. But the best part? Lunch at his parents’ house. The home-cooked local food was delicious! And meeting such a warm and friendly family was the cherry on top. We loved it all. Thank you!

Sloane_S, Jul 2026
This was honestly the best part of our trip! Andy is so friendly and an amazing tour guide. He helped us locate the least busy parts to enjoy the terracotta warriors on an extremely busy day. He even gave me and my friend miniature terracotta warrior souvenirs for free to thank us for traveling far from our hotel to get to the meeting spot. The best part was the food that was cooked by his wife and parents. This was some of the best food we’ve ever eaten and it was so nice to enjoy a home cooked meal not from a restaurant. Would highly recommend this to anyone who has the chance!!

Excellent Small Group Boutique Tour!

Kelly_K, May 2026
Andy picked us up at our hotel shortly before 8:30, which was very convenient than us trying to find a meeting point in the city. His small bus provided a comfortable one hour ride to the site. Upon arrival we were given the audio ear piece, which was quite clear compared to the ones we used in other tours. He spoke good English and shared a lot of useful info as he led us around the three Pits to different spots where we were able to take a lot of great closeup photos. After the tour around 12:30 he took us to his parents clean and neat house about 15 minutes away for great lunch with a variety of fresh vegetables as well as pork and chicken dishes served with jasmine tea, family style. After walking around so much, we appreciated being dropped off at our hotel around 2:30. Value of this tour was excellent with a door to door ride, a 3-hour tour, and great lunch! It was a great day where we got to check off one of the things in our bucket list. We highly recommend this tour!

Great tour with Andy

Judit_V, Apr 2026
Andy was a great guide, communication was via WhatsApp and it was easy. We got picked up from our hotel as well as the other tourists. We got to the site, we didn't have to queue at all. Inside the museum was a bit crowded, but Andy showed us a good spot to take pictures and explained us the history of the Terracotta warriors. He is very knowledgeable and it was very interesting tour. After visiting the museum, Andy took us to his parent's house for lunch, which was very delicious, it was a lot of food as well. His dad is a very good cook. I would highly recommend this tour with Andy. He also helped us booking other tickets, very much appreciated.

We had to ask and wait...

FaustineJulien, Apr 2026
We had to ask and wait until 10PM the night prior to the trip to get the pickup time from the guide. The tour was pretty boring and not well organised. The place is very busy and instead to allocate a time for each group to see a place, everything feels rushed and people around pushing you to get one more pointless selfie. The terracotta army is not impressive at all and can be avoided. A waste of time.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

We did not contact you at an unreasonably late hour. Your trip fell during the busiest travel season, and we did our best to inform you and arrange your itinerary properly. The heavy crowds at the scenic spot are beyond our control, as it receives over 70,000 visitors daily. We arranged the tour as reasonably as possible to ensure it went smoothly. Your view that the Terracotta Army is unimpressive and not worth visiting is purely personal, which we respect. Its value and significance are globally recognized. Different people have different opinions, and we hope you can focus on what you find meaningful.

James_R, Mar 2026
Andy was very knowledgeable, organised and accommodating. We were travelling with an 11 month old baby and nervous about space and crowds. Whilst the museum itself is not terribly well set up for strollers (carrier is generally preferable during busy tines especially) Andy helped us navigate this very smoothly.
