Half Day Active Xian

Información

Get into action on this cycling city tour that uncovers a slice of daily life while exploring the ancient and modern sides of Xi'an. Start the day by meeting an enthusiastic local guide in central Xian. Weave through the backstreets and modern thoroughfares of Xi'an and stop to buy some snacks from the street vendors selling everything from fruit to breakfast foods.

Next, stop at a park in the shadow of the ancient city walls to join the locals in their morning exercises. You'll see people doing everything from relaxing tai chi to energetic dancing - there's even outdoor gym equipment to warm up on. If you're lucky, your exercises might be accompanied by the sounds of locals practicing opera or playing traditional instruments.

Climb to the top of the wall and choose a bike to cycle on. Go it alone or pair up on a tandem bike for some extra fun! Ride around the city walls, appreciate the ancient architecture and revel in the unique view of the city. It may be a little bumpy at times but the incredible view and insight into local life is second to none. Stop to see city landmarks, take snapshots and learn about legends and tales of charming Xi'an. The ride could last up to 14 km.

Arrive back at the South Gate where the tour ends. Take the option to hire the bike for longer for an independent adventure (at an additional cost) or choose to explore on your own for the rest of the day.
