Terracotta Army → city wall → Big Wild Goose Pagoda → Muslim Quarter, 3–5 days
Small-group Xi'an travel with a private guide and vehicle. See the Terracotta Army, the city wall, Big Wild Goose Pagoda and the Muslim Quarter, with no shopping stops.
Xi'an was the seat of old dynasties, and sites such as the Terracotta Army and the city wall sit close to the center. A classic route pairs the emperor's tomb with the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
We run Xi'an as a small group of 2 to 8 guests. A private vehicle and a dedicated guide travel with you, and we operate with no shopping stops and no forced extras. Ask us for a quote.
A clay army made to guard the first emperor's tomb. Rows of figures still stand inside the pits.
The tomb of the emperor who commissioned the clay army. It remains a large earthen mound you can walk around.
The old wall ringing the city center. You can rent a bike and ride a full loop on top.
A pagoda built where scriptures were brought. Fountains and sculptures fill the square around it.
A lane known as the Muslim Quarter. Food stalls and snack shops run one after another.
Displays finds from the Shaanxi region by period, from prehistory to the Tang dynasty. Visitor numbers are capped, so booking ahead helps.
A former hot spring palace site. Ponds, halls and walking paths fill the grounds.
| Period | What to expect |
|---|---|
| March–May | Warming up and good for city sightseeing. Dusty days blow in, so a mask helps. |
| June–August | Hot and humid. Keep midday outdoor sightseeing short and move earlier. |
| September–November | Cool and clear, the best window for historic sites. Peak season, so book early. |
| December–February | Cold, with temperatures below freezing. Snow adds a different look to the wall, but wind protection matters. |
Fly from Incheon to Xi'an Xianyang International Airport, direct or with a connection.
Xi'an links to Zhengzhou, Luoyang and Chengdu by high-speed rail, which suits a multi-city route.
The Terracotta Army and Huaqing Palace are some distance out, so we use a private vehicle. In the center we combine metro and car.
Arrive in Xi'an and visit the city wall and the Muslim Quarter.
Tour the Terracotta Army and the emperor's mausoleum.
See the Shaanxi History Museum and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, then the evening lights.
Visit Huaqing Palace, then transfer to the airport.
We operate with no shopping stops and no forced extras. We do not include shop visits or paid add-ons.
The pits are spread out, so starting in the morning lets you see them without rushing. Your guide sets the order.
Central sites involve short transfers, so parents manage well. The Terracotta Army has some walking, so we keep the day short.
Biking the city wall and the pagoda square are favorites with children. We can add free time to adjust.
Always re-check the latest conditions on the official sites before you travel.
