hi Crystal! Linda and Larry who post here every now and then were also on that trip but I don't recall if they posted a review or not?
sundial, you will not regret this decision! Also when we went, the folks on the Xi'an trip stayed at a different hotel then the ones who were going back to the ship and the hotel we were at was fabulous (China World, not to be confused with Wally World) and walking distance to the Silk Alley which is a MUST.
