You will be transported from your Shanghai hotel lobby in the morning with a private car to the airport for your Xi'an flight.

After a 1 hour and 35 minute flight, you will meet your Xi'an guide at the airport who will show the essence of Xi'an. First, be picked up and transferred to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses which is about 1 1/2 driving hours. This marvelous wonder is the tomb of the first emperor of China, Emperor Qin dating back to 210BC. You will see at least three pits there.

If the weather is not so fine for biking, your Xi'an guide will be glad to take you to the Bell Tower after visiting the City Wall.
