Exciting and stress-free tour!
It was a great, exciting and stress-free experience. Our guide, Linda, met all our requests. Her explanations were interesting and clear in very good English. We feared the queues but she managed to make it easy. Totally recommended!

A great experience and will not be forgotten.
Tina was an excellent guide, both friendly and knowledgeable. We felt we could ask anything and Tina could answer, we had a very tasty lunch and we really enjoyed our day with her.

A true wonder of the world !!!
Warriors are truly amazing. Tina, our guide is a very knowledgeable lady, always willing to assist. We also visited the wild goose pagoda and the city walls, but once you have seen the warriors, nothing else came close.

Terra-cotta Armitage and Xi’An wall
An amazing experience. It was a great time of year to see everything really well and Linda gave us lots of interesting historical and archeological facts. Lunch was delicious in a lovely restaurant that also sold wonderful teas. Many thanks to Linda for making our day outstanding.

Long but rewarding day
Eddie and Johnson were amazing tour guides and driver Knowledge and team work were amazing Highly communicative answered all my questions and English was very good Only feedback would be dropped at airport 4 hours before flight which ended up being another 1.5 hours late so I was awake for nearly 24 hours with a 3am start Perhaps don’t put guests on such a late flight Eddie and Johnson were amazing tour guides

Why this scores 48
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Quick Tour to Xi'an Terracotta Warriors from Shanghai by Air in One Day: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Shanghai.
How much does Quick Tour to Xi'an Terracotta Warriors from Shanghai by Air in One Day cost?
+
Prices start at $521 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Shanghai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Quick Tour to Xi'an Terracotta Warriors from Shanghai by Air in One Day take?
+
Plan for about 11 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 Shanghai is not rushed.
Is Quick Tour to Xi'an Terracotta Warriors from Shanghai by Air in One Day worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Shanghai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Quick Tour to Xi'an Terracotta Warriors from Shanghai by Air in One Day?
+
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 Quick Tour to Xi'an Terracotta Warriors from Shanghai by Air in One Day suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Quick Tour to Xi'an Terracotta Warriors from Shanghai by Air in One Day?
+
Around 2 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 Shanghai 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 Shanghai and add a light layer if any part of the 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Quick Tour to Xi'an Terracotta Warriors from Shanghai by Air in One Day 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 Shanghai 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 Shanghai?
+
On Outty we rank every Shanghai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Shanghai Full Day City Tour with Old and New Highlights, Suzhou Private Day Trip from Shanghai with Bullet Train Option, 4-Hour Flexible Private Shanghai City Tour. 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 Shanghai?
+
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 Shanghai?
+
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.
