It is praised as the eighth wonder in the world and also has been listed in the world UNESCO heritage site, which makes it a must-see in Xian. This museum is built right on the site of Qin Shi Huang’s mausoleum, who was the very first emperor in Chinese history.

Great Tour!
It was a great day with Stefanie. She picked us up at the hotel and made sure we had water. We had young children with us and she made them feel comfortable and helped them enjoy themselves as we worked through the crowds of the Terra Cotta Warrior tour. She was also very knowledgeable of things in the area and was an absolute pleasure to work with. In fact, this was my sister-in-law's second time hiring her as our guide because she was impressed with her the first time. Highly suggest using her services.

Don't miss the best guide in Xi'an! Incredible trip!!
Spent a full day with Stefanie in Xi'an seeing the Terracotta Warriors, the City Wall and Muslim Quarter. Incredible service, fast tracked us through lines, showed us the best of the warriors and answered all our questions - can not fault anything! Stefanie's knowledge of her local city and attractions is amazing. From being collected a the airport to being dropped back in time for our flight we could not have been happier. She was fantastic with us and our three children - everyone loved her! Definitely do yourself a favour and book Stefanie for your trip to see the warriors and the city. You will not regret it!!

Fantastic day in Xi'an !
Our wonderful guide Melanie met us at our hotel and we embarked on our Terra Cotta Warrior tour. Very well spoken, engaging, and knowledgeable, we were gracefully guided throughout the day. After a short visit to the City Wall and a wonderful lunch on Muslim Street, we were dropped at Xi'an North Station for our late afternoon "G" train to Beijing. A great, however short Xi'an day!

Terracotta Army Guided Day Tour with City Wall and Muslim Quarter: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Xian.
How much does Terracotta Army Guided Day Tour with City Wall and Muslim Quarter cost?
+
Prices start at $103 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 Terracotta Army Guided Day Tour with City Wall and Muslim Quarter take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Terracotta Army Guided Day Tour with City Wall and Muslim Quarter worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 4 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 Terracotta Army Guided Day Tour with City Wall and Muslim Quarter?
+
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 Terracotta Army Guided Day Tour with City Wall and Muslim Quarter suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Terracotta Army Guided Day Tour with City Wall and Muslim Quarter?
+
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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Terracotta Army Guided Day Tour with City Wall and Muslim Quarter 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 Mini Group Xian Day Tour to Terracotta Army, City Wall, Pagoda and Muslim Bazaar, All-Inclusive Terracotta Army Tour with Premium Buffet Lunch, Private Xi'an Day Tour: Terracotta Army&Optional City 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.
