“Amongst the best excursions ever. Incredible to see the Terracotta Warriors, the site and how it was put together 2200 odd years ago. Our guide, Chelsea was simply outstanding. Great product knowledge, excellent customer engagement. Her English was very competent, but given it’s not her first language, it was effectively excellent. She took charge of the day, moving at a beautiful pace through all the various points of interest. Cannot rate her high enough!!! Possibly the best tour guide and I have experienced a lot of them over the years. Need to mention the sites. Must admire how the authorities have maintained them. Immaculate!”
