I booked this 3-day private tour to visit Xi’an first, then Beijing (flying from Shanghai), and the company’s customization made it perfect for my history-focused interests. They swapped a generic Beijing shopping stop for a visit to the Shaanxi History Museum in Xi’an and adjusted flight times to let me sleep in—small tweaks that made a huge difference.

The guide was incredibly professional: fluent in English, with a sharp focus on details. In Xi’an, he explained how each Terracotta Warrior’s armor differed by rank and pointed out rare Tang Dynasty artifacts at the museum. In Beijing, he led me through the Forbidden City’s less-crowded halls, sharing stories of imperial life that brought the past to life.

Drivers in both cities were top-notch: cars were spotless, driving was smooth, and they always arrived early with help for luggage. One even stopped to grab me a local breakfast when I mentioned skipping it that morning.

The itinerary balanced both cities without feeling packed—flying between destinations saved time, and every stop felt purposeful. This tour took all the stress out of travel while delivering deep cultural insights. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a tailored experience!
