Danny great guide, but terrible queue
We were trapped for three hours along with thousands of other tourists in the sun, queuing to see the terracotta statues from 100 meters away. We had five minutes to take photos in the most famous hangar, while hundreds of tourists behind us jostled like in a can of sardines, which was also very dangerous for children and the elderly. I saw wheelchair users without a dedicated lane, risking being trampled by the crowd—absurd! I repeat, Danny, the guide, was excellent, and the lunch was also fantastic; the problem is the lack of organization at the official tourist attraction.
Response from the operator: We are deeply sorry for the extreme crowding and long wait times you experienced. Because Chinese students are currently on vacation, every major tourist attraction is experiencing a massive surge in visitors.Thank you for your high praise for your guide, . We completely share your serious concerns regarding the poor organization and the lack of accessible lanes for wheelchair users and seniors. We will immediately forward your feedback to the official site management to request better crowd control.

Superb tour - excellent value too.
We had a tour with Chelsea and it was superb - she was very informative and helpful, especially in the crazy human traffic at the Terracotta Warriors. The whole tour was better than we can have imagined; we learnt so much and Chelsea went above and beyond, helping us to book the famous Xi'an show in the evening (which I also highly recommended). The tour even came with lunch, something we weren't expecting. Highly recommended.

Great Job Chelsea and Diana
Chelsea was a very knowledgeable tour operator. She provided lots of information about dynasty history. Her explanations were very clear and informative throughout the tour. She also provided useful information about how to navigate through the mobs of people in pit 1. Diana was extremely helpful in arranging transportation to and from the hotel and tour start/end point. Terrific customer service.

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Terracotta Army+Wild Goose Pagoda+City Wall Day Tour with Option: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Xian.
How much does Terracotta Army+Wild Goose Pagoda+City Wall Day Tour with Option cost?
+
Prices start at $65 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+Wild Goose Pagoda+City Wall Day Tour with Option 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 Terracotta Army+Wild Goose Pagoda+City Wall Day Tour with Option worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 12 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+Wild Goose Pagoda+City Wall Day Tour with Option?
+
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+Wild Goose Pagoda+City Wall Day Tour with Option 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 Terracotta Army+Wild Goose Pagoda+City Wall Day Tour with Option?
+
Around 4 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 Terracotta Army+Wild Goose Pagoda+City Wall Day Tour with Option 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.
