Great tour! A bus was on time to pick us up from our hotel and drove us to each destination. Noble was our tour guide and he not only provided information on each attraction, but was also able to answer any questions we had (we had a lot!).

We booked 3 tours and our bullet train tickets with China Xian tours. We worked with Grace in the office before we arrive in China. She was fantastic answering our questions and getting back to us in a timely manor and making recommendations to us. We went with all private tours and are very glad we did...

I have had a wonderful day trip to Xi'an from Shanghai, all arranged by China Xi'an Tour including hotel pick up and transfer back, flights and lunch. My guide named Mr. Coffee took us to terracotta warriors, ancient city wall, halal food lunch and muslim street, all was great. Thank you China Xi'an Tour.

Ms. Grace (travel consultant) was very helpful in arranging the best trip for me and my family in Xi'an. The tour guide, Mr. Joe and the driver too were both very friendly and helpful to us. As we are travelling with 2 young children. Both of them were very patient (i.e. we can't walk too fast, we need to use baby stroller etc). Definitely will recommend them to friends.

The tour guide assign to us was very knowledgeable on the history of the places that we had visited and that was very important to us as this trip was mainly to expose our 2 boys to appreciate the Chinese history.
