5Trip to Hua mountain
It was a wonderful experience. The local guide was incredibly accommodating. A memorable trip that I can recommend.
5Book the tour and check the weather
It was quite an experience for us all!! We had a very rainy day so our views were sadly not the best but this mountain is a must!! Bruce our driver was so good, he was very accommodating and kind to our needs. His english is so good as well so we had no problem communicating with him. Would recommend him 100%
4Beautiful mountain with option for a strenuous hike or easier ride. Convenient but costly option for private transport
Hua Shan is a very significant and beautiful mountain. However it is also the most dangerous to climb. The climb from North Peak to Middle Peak was so strenuous and took so long that we didn’t have enough time or energy to get to all the peaks. Recommend knowing your limits before deciding your route and consider the cable car ride. Our driver Bruce is actually a tour guide and would highly recommend him for a tour of a different place because he is very knowledgeable and has excellent English. However the guide/driver does not climb with you. Overall a Huashan is a good place to visit, and hiring a driver is convenient, but there are less expensive ways to go.

5Best tour
Amazing views and scenery, knowledgeable guide. The advantage of off- season meant less people around so it could be a little quicker.
3Great guide, too busy
Bruce (the guide) was fantastic, very knowledgeable about the area and china generally and spoke very good English. Car was great, clean, and on time. The reason for the 3 stars is due to the activity itself which I would not recommend in August, there are just way too many people given it is also the holiday period in china. Was 2h wait to take the cable car up (even though bruce correctly sent us to the cable car with less queue). When doing the hike we were in a constant ‘roadblock’ situation with people jammed all along the trail. Ultimately a scenic mountain but not an enjoyable experience this time of the year (we went on a weekday and not a weekend)

About Xian
Xi'an, capital of many Chinese dynasties and the start of the Silk Road, is home to the Terracotta Army and intact Ming city walls.
The Terracotta Army, found by farmers digging a well in 1974, stands in vast pits outside the city: thousands of life-size clay warriors, horses and chariots buried to guard the tomb of Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor. Each figure has its own face, and the scale is staggering.
Top-ranked sights in Xian: Emperor Qinshihuang’s Mausoleum Site Museum (Terracotta Warriors), Xi'an City Wall (Chengqiang), Big Wild Goose Pagoda (Dayanta).
