Terra cotta awesomeness!
We are thrilled to have been able to take a day trip to Xi’an to see the Terra cotta soldiers. It was the highlight of our trip to China. Being foreigners, we loved the peace of mind of being picked up from our hotel and personally escorted onto the bullet train. The operator gave us great instructions (that included pictures!!) of how to exit the train and where our next guide would meet us. He was right there approaching us and everything worked perfectly. Flying back allowed us extra time in the city so we could see the city walls. That was very nice bonus with this itinerary. The highlight was of course, the Terra cotta soldiers. We were guided through all three pits and then we were given free time in the museum which had even more soldiers we could see up close. We were brought back to the airport and accompanied up to security. Upon arriving back in Beijing our original driver (not the escort) was there waving at us. Again, perfect. He took us back to the hotel. A long day, but sooooo worth it!
Response from the operator: Thank you for this wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that the Xi'an day trip was the highlight of your trip to China. It's great that the detailed instructions, smooth transfers, and seamless coordination made the experience stress-free. So glad you enjoyed the Terracotta Warriors and the bonus time at the City Wall. We truly appreciate you choosing us and hope to welcome you again!

From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight cost?
+
Prices start at $714 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Beijing usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight take?
+
Plan for about 17 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 Beijing is not rushed.
Is From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 42 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Beijing, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 17-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight?
+
Around 0 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 Beijing 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 Beijing and add a light layer if any part of the 17-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight 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 Beijing 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 Beijing?
+
On Outty we rank every Beijing experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Temple Heaven, Lama Temple, Summer Palace & Peking Duck Bus Tour, Beijing Mutianyu Great Wall Sightseeing Full-day Group Tours, Mubus: Mutianyu Great Wall Bus Tour with Summer Palace Options. 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 Beijing?
+
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 Beijing?
+
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.
What is included in From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight?
+
Included: Local guide; Quick lunch (Sandwich, coffee or tea); Bottled water; Transport by private vehicle in Xi'an; and Flight Xi'an to Beijing (Economy Class). Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 4 listed pickup locations in and around Beijing. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for From Beijing: Private Xian Day Tour by Bullet Train & Flight?
