Excellent guide and private tour - We had an excellent private tour to see the Terracotta warriors, arranged by Lily and led by guide Michael. Michael was very knowledgeable about historical topics and enthusiastically shared information with us. He and driver Mr. Wang both worked hard to optimize our time and were very flexible to our requests. Upon their suggestion, we added a stop at the Tomb of Emperor Jingdi, which was worthwhile and also interesting. We were so pleased that we added an extra day of private city tour with Michael, which was also wonderful. He again shared lots of insights and was flexible to our interests, and took us to spots and eateries we would not have found. Highly recommend Lily’s tours and guide Michael!

Definitely best tour in town - Cathy did a spectacular job at showing us around the Terracotta army and Xi'An. Very knowledgeable, engaging and helpful - her style is excellent for getting a real understanding of the area, history, people and culture.

Terracotta Army site & museum, Ancient City Walls, Great Wild Goose Pagoda, Muslim Quarter and shopping for a camera - Lily is an extraordinary guide, her deep knowledge of Xian and surroundings, their history and their landmarks, her excellent English and friendly personality made the tour very enjoyable ... in addition Lily went way beyond her duty to help me solve problems unrelated to her tour ... I had broken my main camera in Taipei and wanted find a possible replacement ... Lily found a well stocked photography store (not easy in a country where most people think cell phones are cameras) which carried the brand I wanted and also shipped a couple of museum guide books back to me in Canada (which involved packaging the books and handling the post office/customs forms) ... this was a BIG contribution to make my visit to Xian a very special trip that I will always remember ... Lily also has a very good driver with a clean and modern vehicle ... Josef Hochleitner, Toronto

100% Recommended, Professoinal, Knoweldgeable, Top Notch - Michael was an amazing tour guide, 100% recommend, - he is professional, knowledgeable, kind and truly cares about his clients. I didn’t book this tour on time but he still managed to add me to a small private tour. If I had gone without Michael, I would have no idea where, when to go but also would never had learned the vast and interesting knowledge he gave. There was never a question he wasn’t able to answe, and he was always very caring. Michael made my Xian experience unforgettable, I feel very lucky to have been able to be toured by him as he went above and beyond true customer service. Highly recommended - you can’t get better than this.

Terracota Warriors & "Tuo Ling Legend Show" - We had a fantastic day out from start to finish. The expertise of our guide, Stephanie, treated us to so many insights and informative facts on the Terracotta Warriors and the driver was prompt and professional. She also helped us to take pictures and videos, which were brilliant. There were several activities to choose from, allowing us to customize the tour to meet our group needs. We decided to watch the show "Tuo Ling Legend" that was the highlight of the day and a great way to end our Silk Road trip. Highly recommend this tour.

Top notch - Absolutely superb day out, from start to finish.
The expertise of our guide Jackie was second to none.
We were treated to so many interesting insights and quirky factoids.
The pricing is more than fair considering the high standard of the certified guides.
It's also worth mentioning the driver who was prompt and professional.

Experience of a lifetime with Lily - Lily was my tour guide and my trip to Xi'an would not have been the same without her indepth knowledge and brilliant story telling of China's ancient history and religions.
I learnt so much on the tour about the Terracotta warriors, the emperor, and the big wild goose pagoda that I never would have gained without Lily's amazing tour. Lily also helped me to take pictures and videos which were brilliant.
I also got to try some local biang biang noodles which were so tasty. The driver was excellent with air conditioned car and free bottled water.
I highly recommend using Lily and her tour company to anyone who travels to Xi'an!

Energetic Tour Guide, Rich Historical Sites - Our customised tour consisted of the terracotta warriors, cave dwellings and Han Yang Ling mausoleum with our guide, Jackie.
Jackie was extremely friendly and shared about the various sites in a manner that was fun and easy to understand. He is experienced and knew how to navigate the sites such that it was minimal walking and supported our understanding. He even had additional pictures to show us and drew parallels to western historical facts.
Han Yang Ling Mausoleum was an amazing place to visit! It had very little crowds and this allowed us to slowly go through the exhibits and ask Jackie any questions (which he enthusiastically answered).
Lunch was Xi’an’s famous biang biang mian and Jackie gave great suggestions on what to eat! My family enjoyed the meal a lot!

Fantastic tour by Shine - Our tour of the Terracotta Army by Shine was both informative and fun. We also visited the golden goose pagoda in the afternoon.
Shine’s English was excellent and she had a good sense of humour, saying my middle age spread made me look like a Buddha 😂😂😂
