Your private guide and driver will meet you in your hotel lobby at 8:30 AM, or at a time of your choosing.

Each statue is uniquely crafted with remarkably vivid expressions, offering a breathtaking glimpse into ancient history. After the museum visit, your driver will take you back to Xi'an. You then have the option to extend your day with 1-2 additional city attractions. Popular choices include the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the ancient City Wall, or a local cultural show (admission fees are not included). At the end of your personalized journey, your guide and driver will send you to your hotel.

Xi'an City Wall
The Xi'an City Wall is the largest and most completely preserved ancient city wall in existence in China. The Xi'an City Wall is a striking landmark of the ancient city. Just like people, cities must have their own distinct personalities. As an ancient historical and cultural city, Xi'an's distinct urban personality is reflected in its urban architecture. You can follow your guide to climb onto the city wall. While listening to the guide's historical explanations, you can overlook Xi'an from the city wall. Renting a bicycle on the city wall and experiencing a cycling journey is also a good choice.

A Day to Remember in Xi’an with Emily
Our day in Xi’an was absolutely unforgettable thanks to Emily, who is hands-down one of the most knowledgeable and helpful guides we’ve ever met. From the moment we started, her communication was spot-on, making the entire experience feel seamless and stress-free. Whether we were marveling at the scale of the Terracotta Army, exploring the Palace of the Emperor, or walking the ancient City Walls, Emily’s passion for history really shone through; she has a way of telling stories that makes the past feel alive rather than just reciting facts. To top it off, she ended our day at the theatre with some truly amazing local food recommendations that were easily the best meals of our trip. She felt less like a formal guide and more like a well-connected friend showing us her city. If you want a deep dive into the culture with someone who genuinely cares about your experience, Emily is the one to call.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so delighted that Emily's knowledge, storytelling, and genuine care made your Xi'an day unforgettable. Xi'an China Travel Service has been welcoming international visitors for decades, and Emily represents the very best of our experienced guide team . Your kind words mean everything to us and to Emily. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again!

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Customized Private Terracotta Warriors DayTour and CityAttrations: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Xian.
How much does Customized Private Terracotta Warriors DayTour and CityAttrations cost?
+
Prices start at $118 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 Customized Private Terracotta Warriors DayTour and CityAttrations take?
+
Plan for about 9 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 Customized Private Terracotta Warriors DayTour and CityAttrations worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 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 Customized Private Terracotta Warriors DayTour and CityAttrations?
+
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 Customized Private Terracotta Warriors DayTour and CityAttrations suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Customized Private Terracotta Warriors DayTour and CityAttrations?
+
Around 1 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 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Customized Private Terracotta Warriors DayTour and CityAttrations 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.
