Tour Style:
This day trip flies you from Shanghai to Xi'an and back in about ten to eleven hours, so you can see the Terracotta Warriors without adding a hotel night. The flight between the two cities takes around two hours and runs often enough to keep the timing flexible. It is an all-inclusive day: round-trip Shanghai-Xi'an air tickets, hotel pick-up and drop-off in downtown Shanghai, airport transfers on both ends, the Terracotta entrance fee, and a local English-speaking guide are covered, and you have lunch at a local restaurant before visiting. At the museum your guide walks you through the pits to see the clay army made for Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of a unified China.

Shanghai to Xian Day Tour by Round-Trip Flight

  • Place&Transport: Xian
  • Today's Activities: Terracotta Warriors
  • Accommodation: N/A
  • Meal: To avoid touristy pre-made meals, our guides will recommend top local restaurants, help you choose dishes, and explain their cultural significance for an authentic taste of local cuisine.

Flying from Shanghai to Xi'an

In the early morning your Shanghai driver picks you up at your downtown hotel holding a sign with your name and takes you to the airport for your flight to Xi'an. When you land, your Xi'an guide meets you at the airport exit with a "Xi'an Private Tour" welcome sign.

Lunch in Xi'an

Your guide first takes you to a local restaurant for lunch, so you can taste classic Xi'an dishes before heading out to the museum.

Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum

After lunch you visit the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum, one of the most significant archaeological finds of the twentieth century and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The clay soldiers, horses, and chariots were made to guard the tomb of Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of a unified China, and thousands of figures have been uncovered, each modeled with individual features and displayed across the excavation pits.

Return to Shanghai

Your guide then transfers you to Xi'an airport for the flight back to Shanghai, where your driver takes you to your hotel.

Questions Before You Book

Are the flights between Shanghai and Xi'an included?

Yes. The round-trip Shanghai–Xi'an air tickets are part of this all-inclusive day tour, together with the Terracotta entrance fee, a local guide, and transport. Allow about 10 to 11 hours from door to door.

Where does the tour begin and end?

Your Shanghai driver collects you at your downtown hotel holding a name sign and returns you there the same evening; the Xi'an part of the day starts and ends at Xi'an airport.

What exactly does the price cover?

Round-trip flights, Shanghai hotel pick-up and drop-off, airport transfers in both cities, entrance to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum, a local English-speaking guide, and all transport in Xi'an.

Is lunch part of the day?

Yes. Before the museum your guide takes you to a local restaurant for lunch, and we can adjust the dishes for vegetarian or other dietary needs if you tell us in advance.

How much time do we spend at the museum?

Enough to walk the main pits with your guide. Because this is a same-day trip, your schedule is built around the flight times, so the pace stays relaxed rather than rushed.

Do we need our passports?

Yes. Domestic flights in China require the passport used for the booking, and your guide helps with check-in at both airports.
