Exceptional service, great communication & depth of knowledge.

Our driver was wonderful and guide exceptional. Our guide, David, spoke excellent English and was an expert on the terracotta warriors - he really added value to the experience for us and was happy to answer a range of questions. He also expertly and politely navigated the absolutely insane crowds in the heat & never showed any indication he was at all bothered. I would highly recommend this tour. Our driver drove us safely and comfortably to our destination, using a translation app to communicate very effectively with us.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We’re thrilled David and our driver made your Terracotta Army tour so great. We’ll pass your kind words to them and hope to welcome you again soon!

Best Terracotta tour.

Jade was good and explained very clearly and concise. The tour was organised well. Winter is the best time to visit.

David our guide was superb and such a nice man, warm and an absolute professional, made our visit to an already amazing place. The driver was punctual and a smooth driver too

Great morning at the terracotta wariors museum

Ping and Jade really gave their best to give us an unforgettable experience. Ping was helpful and gave a lot of useful information both before and after the visit. Jade was our professional tourguide at the museum. She was easy to follow and always if everyone was still with her (physically and mentally). One small point of critisism though, the museum is really really crowded so at some points it is difficult to make good photo's.

Small group tour with Rosa ( Pings Tours)

We went on a small group tour with Rosa as our tour guide. She was such an entertaining lady with so much energy. It’s is very clear that she loves history and storytelling and made the tour really come alive for us. Thank you Rosa for the excellent tour!

Fantastic tour

Exelente! Muy bien organizado. La guía Joyce es maravillosa, habla muy bien inglés, se asegura de que encuentres un buen lugar para ver la exposición, te da información histórica relevante y también datos curiosos. Disfrutamos mucho el paseo.
