This private day tour starts with unhurried time at the Terracotta Warriors, timed to the museum's opening -- the quietest window of the day, before the tour buses arrive. Your guide walks you through Pits 1, 2 and 3 at your own pace. By early afternoon you're back in the city and you choose how to spend the rest of the day. Option A: Yuanjia Village Food City, where 100+ Shaanxi snacks are made by hand in front of you, then a hands-on panniu (frog-button) knot-tying lesson with our partner craftsperson at Datang Xishi, and a walk through one of Xi'an's oldest local markets at the foot of the city wall. Option B: a real Chinese e-bike -- not a pedal bike, not laps on top of the City Wall -- through the old city's backstreets with your guide beside you: the Bell Tower, street food in Huifang, Guangren Temple at dusk, and Jianguomen Old Market in neon. Fully private, and because it's private the start time flexes around you.
