    Review of: Xi'an Evening Food Tour by TukTuk
    Great local food and a fun evening
    Michelle our guide was great and organized this tour well. We stopped at 4 places and the "Near Wall" brewery last to try some local craft beer, but highlight was the food. Included lamb skewers, beef soup dumplings, fried Chinese style chicken, soups etc. Tuk-tuk rides and experiencing the Muslim quarter was fun. Afterwards, I walked to Bell and Drum Towers for some amazing night shots of these temples and walked some more in the Muslim quarter to soak it all in. We found a table everywhere and Michelle was quick to order and provided interesting historical context of the food origin. Also, am finally able to eat beef soup dumplings properly!

    Review of: Authentic Old Xi'an Back Street Food Tour
    An excellent food tour you definitely never had before!
    This tour really left me speechless. My tour guide Sunday did the tour, also I was her only customer this day. So I had the chance to get to know a huge variety of local food and drinks. She will buy for you everything you want to try and takes a lot of time for questions and to enjoy the food. You will see places no tourist will ever go. The next day I was still full and didn‘t need any food 🤣 totally recommended tour, best I did by now!

    This best guide ever!!!
    Do to a family matter I had to cancel my tour at the last minute. Cathrine Lu was amazing. She went above and beyond helping me out in a time of crisis. She helped me get to the the airport and get checked in on time. I can't recommend Cathrine Lu tours high enough. This lady has integrity, knowledge beyond belief and kindness. I will use Cathrine Lu tours every time I got to China. I will see you soon Cathrine. Thanks Again!!!

    Review of: Essential Xi'an Private Day Tour Including Lunch
    A perfect day in Xi'an
    We only had a very short stay in Xi'an and therefore booked a private guided tour for one day. Kathy showed us all the sights and told us a lot about the area and China. In the evening she got us tickets for a very nice dinner show and even organized the transfer. All in all a perfect day - thank you Kathy!

    Review of: 3-Hour Xi'an Muslim Street Food Walking Tour
    Facinating Night market
    We had a great time walking in the Muslim Quarter of Xian. Dodo, our guide, met us promptly at the Bell Tower Hotel and then took us on an amazing journey into Xian culture. She took us to 4 different outlets. Loved the food!

    Review of: Evening Tour: Xi'an Tang Dynasty Music and Dance Show and Dumpling Banquet
    Dumplings and dancing
    We visited here in August 2019. It was a dumpling dinner and a Tang Dynasty dance show. The food was fairly bland, and there were people selling random souvenirs at the table throughout the dinner. The show was mostly dancing with historical details projected on the wall beside the dancers. A very cultural show and good basic insight into some of China's history.

    Review of: Private Home Cooking Class:Dumpling Cooking Class Tour in Xi'an
    Best home cooking class in China!
    We had an amazing time with Tilla and Jeff Ning’s family making two different types of dumplings. Tilla was so accommodating to our schedules. The Ning family was so hospitable and taught us how to become experts at making dumplings. The home was clean and lovely. We will definitely be back! A highlight of our trip to China for sure.

    Review of: Xi'an Morning Food & Market Tour by TukTuk
    A gastronomically good morning!
    We thoroughly enjoyed our morning tour. Our guide, Michelle, was attentive, knowledgeable, and fun! The tuk-tuk drivers were on point. The meeting location was easy to find. All of the samplings were delicious. Michelle explained the processes for making the dishes and some history of the small family-run shops we visited. The small group size makes it fun for meeting and exploring with new friends.

    Our favorite dish was the savory beef pancakes...they were extraordinarily flavorful!! We even went back to have it for breakfast one more time before we departed. It was great having Michelle show us around the market too. Cricket fighting. Who knew?! If you enjoy food, you'll regret not taking this tour... don't miss it!!

    Review of: Xi'an Food Tour by Tuk Tuk
    Excellent food tour-- and amazing guide!
    I recommend this food tour, and guide Michael, to anyone visiting Xi'an! The tour was customizable if there are specific places you want to go or things to eat. We started at the Hilton, visited a few areas and ended in the Muslim quarter at the bell tower. Michael helped us get a car back to our hotel AND he stayed in touch with us after the tour. He gave us recommendations on what to visit and where else to eat on the rest of our trip. Any tour you book with Michael will not disappoint!

    Review of: Half-day Xi'an Biang Biang Noodles Cooking Class with Spice Market Visit
    SUCH A GOOD EXPERIENCE
    We met our guide Micheal at the metro, near a local food market in the morning. He was so friendly and informative, we learned a lot about food in the Shaanxi region, picked up some crazy cheap walnuts and various other bits to cook with. The class itself was great, we were cooking in a local restaurant, both my mother and I kneaded the noodle dough and hand pulled out noodles, eventually leading to a giant bowl of noodles for each person. My mum is veggie and the cooking class accommodated for that. Really enjoyed my time and would highly recommend as a way to explore real chinese culture.

    Review of: Private Xi’an Night & Food Tour by Tuk Tuk and Public Transportation
    Excellent food tour
    I've done food tours in almost every major city in China, and I can say that this one ranks among the best. Our guide was super knowledgeable, warm and accommodating. We visited several places eating an array of excellent dishes, and there was always plenty of food. If you're in Xi'an don't hesitate to book this tour!

    Review of: Best of Xi'an: Terracotta Warriors Tour with Best Dinner Show Banquet
    The Xi'an Terracotta Warriors Tour with Tina Yang
    I had previously visited china visiting Shenzen and was fortunate enough to see the Terracotta Warriors on display in a museum. I made the decision to come Xi'an and see the Terracotta Warriors. I was extremely happy to have Tina Yang as my tour guide, Tina's knowledge and history was outstanding. I am looking to come back to Xi'an really soon and I look forward to having Tina as my guide. It should be noted Tina's attention to detail is second to none always prompt to ensure that you do not miss out on any thing totally outstanding

    Review of: Private Xi'an Local Family Visit with Home Cooking Lunch or Dinner
    Private family cooking class
    What a treat! So much better than we had hoped. Our guide, SunPing, picked us up and promptly at our hostel and drove us to the wonderful market to purchase all of the freshest foods. She was very accommodating to our wishes in the food choices.. We visited a local supermarket to see the contrasts. We then went to the home of the local family where we met our hostess who had done some of the preparation already. The lesson in making dumplings began. Sun ping is wonderful! She is a very good teacher full of energy and encouragement. Her English is excellent and she is a natural teacher. Not only did we get a lesson in food preparation we also got a great lesson in Chinese culture and history and customs around food. The meal was so good and full of variety. I can not recommend it highly enough.
