Itinerary

Detailed Itinerary

The treasures of Xi'an await when you are picked up from your hotel and start your tour. The day’s adventure commences with exploration of the nearly 14km Xi'an City Wall. Encircling the old city, and the best preserved of ancient fortifications in China, Xi'an’s City Wall takes you back in time. A stroll along the walkway reveals panoramic views of the surroundings and an understanding of the importance of this defensive system for the trade that started in Xi'an and then flourished along the ancient Silk Road. In the middle of the old block of Xi'an stands the Great Mosque, the oldest and largest Islamic mosque in the country, believed to have been built in the mid-7th century. The Arabic and Chinese depictions on the walls are relics from the city’s important trading days at the start of the Silk Road, reflecting the diversity of cultures which traded and settled in Xi'an. Contemplation is natural as you wander through the beautiful traditional Chinese gardens. Within walking distance from the Great Mosque is bustling Muslim Quarter, one of the best food streets in Xi'an where you can find delicious local eats and trade for souvenirs. Enjoy free time to explore and savour tastes (or get advice from your guide). Following lunch make the most of a short stopover at the nearby Drum and Bell Tower Square. Relax as you capture memorable photos and ponder the change in communications from the drum of old to the smart phone of today. Move on to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, one of the most significant Buddhist pagodas in Xi'an, where you can observe Xi'an’s 1,400 years of history. Mix with locals can going about their daily activities on a peaceful walk in the temple, and there may even be an opportunity to enter at the top of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda for a spectular view. Your guide and diver will escort to back to your hotel at which time your day tour will conclude.

Tripadvisor score Beautiful China!

June 2025 • Family

We absolutely had a wonderful time and would highly recommend Chinatours.com to assist travelers to build their itinerary. Our itinerary was well outlined to include many wonderful historical sites, fun outdoor markets and beautiful gardens. We were guided by very knowledgeable and friendly tour guides. We especially liked Lee. She was accommodating, knowledgeable about the history of China, introduced us to the many wonderful things about the culture, recommended very good local restaurants, and assured confirmation and safety of our transportation. Chinatours booked us very nice hotels and the transport between cities was seamless. We really enjoyed our time in China and wished we could have stayed longer.

Tripadvisor score 100% fabulous experience

June 2025 • Family

The trip with China Tours was 100% fabulous. Everything about it was exactly as described. The tour guides were all wonderful, the hotels, and transfers (two bullet trains, two domestic flights) were amazing, everything went exactly as planned, and we had a great first trip to China. We did the 13 Days China Wonders & Pandas tour in June 2025. The balance was perfect between sightseeing with the guides and having free time to explore this amazing country at each destination. The high quality of the five guides along the way really made the trip. They were wonderful people without exception: professional, courteous, very knowledgeable, and friendly. The team at China Tours did truly great work in arranging everything, down to the last detail. Thank you very much for making this trip a really great experience!

This is a fantastic tour. The tour guides are amazing- so knowledgeable and extremely helpful. The experience of visiting the historic sites has been made far richer than it would’ve been on our own. We have left China with a greater understanding of Chinese history, culture and its people.
