Exceptional Xi'an We had an absolutely incredible experience on Maggie’s tour of Xi'an — truly one of the highlights of our entire trip to China!
Maggie was knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about sharing the history and culture of Xi’an. Her storytelling brought everything to life, especially at the Terracotta Warriors — she didn’t just explain what we were seeing, she helped us understand the significance behind it all in a way that really stuck with us.
She was also incredibly attentive and organized, making the entire day feel seamless and stress-free. From timing to transportation to little personal touches, everything was handled perfectly. We never felt rushed, and she made sure we had time to take it all in, ask questions, and enjoy the experience.
What really stood out was how personable she was — it felt less like a tour and more like exploring with a very knowledgeable friend. She even gave us great local tips and made sure we were comfortable throughout the day.
If you’re visiting Xi’an, I cannot recommend Maggie enough. This tour exceeded all expectations and left us with unforgettable memories!

Unforgettable experience Everything was great. My coordinator Sophia was patient throughout the months of planing. Couldn’t have done it without her. Our guides are really knowledgeable. Having the opportunity to listen to them share about their culture, it piqued my interest the rich history of China.

Guilin: special shoutout to Samantha and é™ˆåøˆå‚…. They are very friendly and engaging. We even went on a scooter ride tgt. That was really an enjoyable experience for my folks. Though our time together was short, we felt that they really tried their best to integrate us into the culture of Guilin. It was a joy to travel with them.

Nanning: special shoutout to Dora and å†œåøˆå‚…. Even though this part of the trip was more physically demanding, Dora was very patient with us bearing in mind that we have senior citizens in our tour group. Furthermore, she took the effort to arrange a short tour of Mingshi city. This tour was a very pleasant surprise. We really appreciate Dora for her eye for detail. It makes things so much easier when we transit from lodging to lodging.

Thank you so much Sophia , Samantha, Dora, é™ˆåøˆå‚… and å†œåøˆå‚…. I wish you guys all the best and I hope that we will be able to travel tgt down the road when we visit next time.

Regards,
Kevin

Flawless organization and 5-star service across China! We had an incredible experience with China Xian Tour. They organized a seamless itinerary for us, including a day tour in Xi'an, a driver in Chengdu, and a transfer in Guizhou.

Our guide in Xi'an was wonderful—extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and made the history come alive. They also handled our tickets for the 'Legend of the Camel Bell' and 'Song of Everlasting Sorrow' shows, which were spectacular.

What impressed us most was the logistics. Even though our drivers didn't speak English, the agency set up a WeChat group to provide real-time support for any language or organizational needs. Booking was easy as they accept PayPal, which is a huge plus for those without Alipay.

A huge thank you to Maxie for the perfect planning and support. This agency made our trip stress-free and enjoyable!
