Jerry was an outstanding guide for the beautiful city and state.
Jerry was an outstanding guide in Xi'an. He was exceptionally knowledgeable about the city and the culture, friendly and suggested a lot of extra shows and other activities that we enjoyed tremendously. He was always punctual and available and gave us his contact information if we had any concerns or issues during evening hours. He also provided us with much appreciated guidance in regards to restaurants to eat dinners and other evening activities which we could do. His suggestions in regards to dinners and our independent evening activities were superb and budget friendly. He was exceptionally thoughtful, funny, entertaining, and we became fast friends. We were very comfortable with Jerry and discussed our families, upbringings, and differences in culture. We invited Jerry to visit us in America which would be a great honor for us to host him and his family. We strongly recommend Jerry as a guide to anybody who would like to know more about Chinese culture in Xi'an. more

Memories of Xian
Our experience of the city was particularly enhanced by the services of Jerry, which we were lucky to have as the guide of ChinaHighlights. He is not only a knowledgeable professional but an interesting person to talk with about present day life in China. more

Suggested Itinerary
Here is a suggested itinerary. We are happy to customize a tour according to your interests and schedule.
Tour Duration： 7 hours
In the morning, your private English-speaking guide will collect you from your hotel. The starting time is flexible for you to decide. Your guide will call you at the hotel one day in advance or leave a message to double-check the collection time with you.
Your guide and driver will transfer you directly to Lantau Island. Drive along Tsing Ma Bridge as you enjoy good views along the way to Lantau Island.
Visit Po Lin Monastery, one of Hong Kong's principal centers of Buddhism. It boasts the world's largest seated outdoor bronze Buddha statue on the mountain peak.
Take the Ngong Ping 360 cable car to have a dramatic view of the Big Buddha (one-way ticket is included).
Visit Ngong Ping Market, and enjoy a vegetarian lunch (at your own expense) at the monastery, which is famous for providing high quality Buddhist vegetarian cuisine in Hong Kong.
Continue to Tai O Fishing Village, where the traditional life on water is well-preserved. It's a little village with many houses built on stilts over the water. People get to their houses by walkways or by boats, so it's sometimes called the ‘Venice' of Hong Kong, offering a glimpse into Hong Kong's past and provide a striking contrast with the modern city.
Then your guide and driver will send you back to your hotel.
