Board a licensed, air-conditioned coach from Giant Wild Goose Pagoda Station and let your on-board guide take care of everything, from ticketing to scenic introductions, while you focus on the experience itself.

Departure Times: 08:00 / 09:00
Departure Point: Giant Wild Goose Pagoda Station, Exit C (Metro Lines 3/4) — please arrive at least 10 minutes before departure
Return Point: North Square of Giant Wild Goose Pagoda
Return Time: Approximately 13:00 (08:00 departure) / 14:00 (09:00 departure)
Your guide meets you at Giant Wild Goose Pagoda Station and takes care of everything from the moment you board. The coach heads east out of Xi'an, and within an hour you're standing at the entrance to one of the most extraordinary sites on earth.
The Terracotta Army is not something you can fully prepare for. Pit 1 alone — with its rows of life-sized warriors stretching into the distance — has a way of silencing even the most seasoned traveller. You'll have approximately 3 hours to explore at your own pace: the warriors of Pit 1, the command figures of Pit 2, the high-ranking officers of Pit 3, and the museum's bronze chariots and artefacts that tell the story of China's first emperor.
Your guide handles ticketing on arrival, so there's no queuing at the booth — just walk in and start exploring. When it's time to leave, the coach brings you back to Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, where the tour ends.
