Mervyn is best guide for the sites of Xi’an
We loved our guide Mervyn - not only was she knowledgeable and friendly she was like having a friend with you along the way. She made sure we had the best views at the terracotta soldiers and handheld us everywhere even suggesting things not on the set tour like the fabulous show we saw one night and organizing the driver to take us home after the show. You have to request Mervyn - to really get to the understand Xi’an it is a must to have her as your guide

As one of our star guides, she truly embodies our mission, to go beyond ordinary sightseeing and immerse in the local culture, creating unforgettable, once a life experiences for you. It’s wonderful to know that Mervyn’s warmth, knowledge, and personal touch made you feel like you were exploring Xi’an with a friend, and enhanced your trip with special touches with the locals. Thank you for recommending our guide and tour arrangement. We hope to welcome you back for more extraordinary adventures in the future! Warm regards, Trippest Customer Service Team

xi'an highlights in 2 days
We particularly wanted to spend a good amount of time at the terracotta warrior sites which we did. We had a very good tour. We enjoyed the other tours such as the big goose pagoda, the Muslim quarter and the museum, etc. Our guide and driver were very good. We got to taste a lot of different foods of the area. Would recommend the tour.
Response from the operator: Dear Therese, Thank you for your fantastic review of the 2-Day Xi'an Private Tour! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the Terracotta Warriors and other highlights like the Big Goose Pagoda and the Muslim Quarter. It’s great to know that our guide and driver contributed to your experience. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you on another adventure soon! Best regards, Trippest Customer Service Team

Wonderful trip
We had a wonderful two day trip to Xian accompanied by Roger, our guide. He was extremely informative and helpful at all times. We saw all the sights and had time to wander around in the evenings. We particularly enjoyed cycling all around the city walls - a beautiful experience.

Rocky Rocks! KO the Whole Thing
We had 2 days to see Xi'an and Rocky was the perfect guide to make sure we saw all we could see in that period of time. He was amazingly knowledgable. He loves this city and is proud to share its many amazing features. Terracota Warriors, Temple, Muslim Quarter, great food...he made it all happen. He went out of his way to get me a Starbucks which was a bit of a scavenger hunt to locate. Rocky is a friend to his clients and a loving host for his beloved city. You just cannot do better than Rocky and China Highlights for your touring of Xi'an. Rocky, you ROCK!

Fun trip
We spent two days with Robbie our guide and his driver. No problems with any part of the tour. The visit to the Terracotta Warriors was definitely a highlight, even thought this was my second visit. We also enjoyed spending time with a local family, learning how to make dumplings. Being picked up at the airport and dropped off at the train station was so helpful, no worries about transportation.

Why this scores 77
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
2-Day Xi'an Private Tour with Must-see Attractions and Unique Experiences: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Xian.
How much does 2-Day Xi'an Private Tour with Must-see Attractions and Unique Experiences cost?
+
Prices start at $462 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Xian usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2-Day Xi'an Private Tour with Must-see Attractions and Unique Experiences take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Xian is not rushed.
Is 2-Day Xi'an Private Tour with Must-see Attractions and Unique Experiences worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Xian, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2-Day Xi'an Private Tour with Must-see Attractions and Unique Experiences?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2-Day Xi'an Private Tour with Must-see Attractions and Unique Experiences suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2-Day Xi'an Private Tour with Must-see Attractions and Unique Experiences?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Xian can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Xian and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2-Day Xi'an Private Tour with Must-see Attractions and Unique Experiences start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Xian within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Xian?
+
On Outty we rank every Xian experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Xi'an Day Tour: Terracotta Army&Optional City Attractions, All-Inclusive Terracotta Army Tour with Premium Buffet Lunch, 2-Day Customized Warriors Tours & Xian Top Attractions. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Xian?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Xian?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
