Great time - Visiting the Terracotta Army Museum during the Chinese National Holiday is not ideal - the amount of people there is simply staggering. That being said, seeing the place and the warriors is an awe-inspiring experience! And going this tour with our guide Lily made the experience as painless as possible, despite the people. This included picking us up extra early to avoid the worst crowd, and explaining the background on the way, as well as confidently guiding us through the rather complex layout of the museum. Lily took great care of us, helped us find the most interesting spots, and made herself easily available for additional questions.

I highly recommend to book this tour, very comprehensive. - The tour guide Roger was extremely knowledgeable. He provided extensive details on all parts of the tour and educated the group on the history of China to maximize our experience. The tour company's communication system is excellent. They sent emails regarding tour logistics and made arrangements to pick us up from our hotel, round-trip, which was outside the central part of the city. Overall, a wonderful experience.

Easy and great! - Before our trip the company reached out to touch base and organise logistics. Tracy our guide was knowledgeable, humorous and very pleasant. You’re given an ear piece so you can hear avoit the history and directions on the day. Overall an easy and great experience.

A perfect day at the Mausoleum - Perfect tour, perfect guide. We learned a lot even if the place was so crowded because of the public holiday, Roger was able to guide us through efficiently and show us all the important parts.

Amazing Terracotta Warriors Museum and Amazing Xi'an Service by Odynovo's local guide - Can't say enough about the guide "Susan Deng" in Xi'an that Odynovo provided. From Terracotta Warriors Museum to the Hanyang Tomb and ancient city wall she was Full of information and history. She is above the rest in experience especially with her work on the Netflix documentary with Terracotta Museum. BUT, her personalized help with shipping some items was just "over the top" from any guide in our month long journey in China. Even answering the phone early in the mourning and helping find a lost package at our hotel "weeks later" deserves the guide of the month award with tens of thousands of tour guides. This name is a must request in the Xi'an area!!

Warriors’s Tomb Visit with Friendly English Speaking Guide - We had a wonderful experience visiting the Warriors’ Tomb with Rita as our guide. She was friendly, knowledgeable, warm, and made the history come alive with her clear English explanations. Rita was attentive to us as a couple, making the tour feel very personal and memorable. Thanks to her, we learned so much and enjoyed our time deeply. Highly recommended!
