Free walking tours in Xi’An

Fue una experiencia muy positiva. Ricky sabe muchísimo y lo explica muy bien, además de demostrar un entusiasmo maravilloso, tanto por la historia como por su trabajo como guía. Sin duda lo recomiendo 100%!!

No sabemos muy bien ingles y aun asi fue estupendo. Ricky sabe muchisimo y además nos guió para no juntarnos con multitudes (necesario en China). Nos explico tanto la historia como detalles de las estatuas, cultura China… 100% recomendable para visitar los Guerreros de Terracota!

It was amazing. The calligraphy, the tea, she was so professional, kind and funny. We talked and learn about a lot of thing!!!

Wenqi is an excellent food guide! We had a fantastic night eating our way through the Muslim quarter in Xi'an. Every dish was a hit - some I had heard of already, others she newly introduced to me which was a great experience I never would have had without doing this tour. We also had a really great time chatting with Wenqi about life in china and all sorts of things, she is super fun! Highly recommend this tour to anyone! Come hungry though - she's not kidding about Xi'an being the carb kingdom

Excellent walking tour. Informative and interesting. Recommended!

Il tour culinario con Dafe è stata un’esperienza davvero speciale, che va ben oltre il semplice corso di cucina. Non solo imparerete a preparare piatti tipici di Xi'an, ma vivrete un’autentica immersione nella cultura e nell’ospitalità della sua famiglia. Dafe ci ha accolti con un calore unico e l'accoglienza dei suoi genitori lo hanno reso davvero indimenticabile. La mamma di Dafe, con la sua incredibile abilità, ci ha insegnato a fare i ravioli e i noodles fatti in casa, guidandoci passo dopo passo con pazienza e sorrisi. È stato affascinante vedere come tradizione e amore per la cucina si unissero in ogni gesto. Ma non è solo la cucina a rendere questo tour speciale: l’intera famiglia ci ha trattato come parte della loro, facendoci sentire a casa sin dal primo momento. Da non dimenticare le chiacchierate con suo papà accompagnati da vini locali davvero ottimi. Il pranzo, condiviso tutti insieme, è stato il momento culminante. Gusto, calore umano e risate: un'esperienza che ci ha fatto sentire davvero parte della famiglia di Dafe. Se cercate un'esperienza autentica, che mescola cibo, tradizione e accoglienza sincera, questo tour è un must

Se cercate una guida che non sia solo esperta, ma anche capace di rendere ogni storia viva e coinvolgente, Ricky è la scelta giusta. Non si limita a raccontare fatti e date: riesce a trasportarvi nel passato con le sue narrazioni ricche di emozione e dettagli, facendovi sentire parte della storia dei Guerrieri di Terracotta. La sua passione per la cultura cinese è evidente in ogni parola, e la sua capacità di rendere interessanti anche gli aspetti più complessi è davvero rara. Ricky non è solo una guida turistica, è un vero storyteller, capace di tenere alta l'attenzione e di farvi appassionare a ogni aneddoto. Se volete un tour che non sia solo informativo Ricky è un must. Un’esperienza che non dimenticherete facilmente!

Gracias Wenqi, ha sido un placer pasar la tarde del domingo con vosotros en familia. Has sido una persona muy agradable y nos has hecho sentir como en casa. Sin duda una experiencia increíble para disfrutar de la gastronomía China, y conocer más sobre la cultura de este país. Una experiencia recomendada sin duda y la comida INCREÍBLE. Así como la comunicación que fue increíble. Thank you Wenqi, it was a pleasure spending Sunday afternoon with you and your family. You were such a kind person and made us feel at home. Without a doubt, an incredible experience to enjoy Chinese cuisine and learn more about the culture of this country. An experience we definitely recommend — and the food was AMAZING! As well as the communication, which was excellent.

It was like going out with a friend. It was very nice to have a small environement to get to know a local and experience Xian with what felt like a friend. In our case it was not about the touristic places but about the conversations we shared.

Ricky fue un gran guía durante nuestra visita. A pesar de la multitud, fue capaz de mantenernos muy atentos a todas las explicaciones e hizo la visita muy amena evitando agobios por las aglomeraciones. Tiene un gran nivel de historia y mucho conocimiento, aprendimos muchísimo de los guerreros y de la historia de China en general. Además es muy simpático y amigable. Recomiendo mucho hacer la visita con él.

We had an amazing experience on the free tour of the Terracotta Warriors in Xi’an thanks to him. His deep knowledge of the site and its history truly brought everything to life, and it’s clear that he is extremely passionate about what he does. His English was excellent: clear, fluent, and easy to understand. On top of that, his kindness and attentiveness were exceptional. He went above and beyond to make the experience enjoyable for all of us. We would 100% do this tour again without hesitation!

Yunyun è stata bravissima. Chiara, professionale e divertente. Ha risposto a tutte le nostre domande e ci ha intrattenuto con giochi ed esperienze da locali. Bravissima e consigliata.

Amazing tour with Yunyun! We tried different foods, all delicious, spicy and non spicy. She pointed out some good places to eat that we didn’t go in and good spots for photos. She also explained a bit about Xian history which was a plus. And an small surprise in the end!

We absolutely recommend this tour. Wenqi is very very friendly and knows so much about food in Xi’an. We also had very interesting conversations about life in China. We have taken similar tours in other cities and this has been one of the best!

Excelente guía. Muy entretenido, se preocupaba por que todos estuviéramos bien, hizo trucos de magia para mi hijo y todo, un excelente guía! . Muy recomendable!!

The guide knew the food places well and gave the tour in a very engaging and good way. There was an amazing atmosphere. I recommend it to everyone.

Yunyun was very funny and, apart from recommending us a lot of food places in Xi’an, she also knows a lot about the history of the city and China. We really enjoyed the explanations about the muslims in Xi’An. The places we visited very soooo gooood and we went back to some of them the day after. She was also available after the tour for any question. Would definitely recommend it, the food is great as well as her company!

It has probably been one of the best experiences I have ever had on holidays. The activity is so entertaining and Wenqi and her family are so kind. The conversations with her and her parents were so enriching to know better the Chinese culture. The food was awesome! Would definitely recommend it.

Wengi e straordinaria! Simpatica, molto preparata, accudente e dolce! Ci ha raccontato la storia culinaria e culturale di Xi’an in modo incredibile, facendoci assaggiare i piatti e bevande che altrimenti non avremmo mai conosciuto. Consiglieremo a chiunque di fare una visita con lei! Grazie Wengi❤️

My husband and I have attended many of this Guru walks in different countries, well most of them have been very satisfactory with information and humor, however none of them come close to Ricky's tour. His information about terracotta army was outstanding and the delivery of his humor and the interesting stories about the history , was second to none. Also a bit of magic he threw in, made the day. We have immensely enjoyed the tour and we would highly recommend it.

The tea ceremony with Yun was a wonderful experience. She is incredibly kind and welcoming, explains everything clearly, and makes you feel right at home. Her English is perfect, and she shares the tradition with such warmth and clarity. Highly recommended!

Loved it!

We learned a lot with Ricky about Chinese culture and history. Also he made the visit to the Terracota Army very pleasant. He knows SO MUCH about everything and he is very funny and kind. If it wasn’t for him, the visit to the Army (plus it was crowded) wouldn’t have been the same at all. Would definitely recommend it to everyone!

We had such a great time with Wenqi, she took us to some amazing food spots and had lots of interesting information about the area and what we were eating. She even managed to cater for the vegetarian members of the group and made sure the whole group got to try a range of delicious things. Wenqi is very engaging, fun to hang out with and really made our trip to Xi’an perfect!

This experience was amazing! yunyun was so nice, shared a lot of interesting information and was patient Definitely recommend to go when visiting xi’an!
