[quote=JABAROOTOO ,35776]Gidday Melissa,Exlife has been most helpful. If you'd like to do a litle more research online for ticket prices and train schedules, click on the 'search' icon on the top right of the page then to the 'trains' in the menu on the left column of the new window. Your best option is to pay for all the berths (4) in the soft sleeper compartment.(two adults and 2 children) Very comfortable and you just have to go out to the bathrooms which are usually pretty good. Look for trains with K or T preceeding the number. These are fast or express trains and very comfortable.Your hotel should be able to negotiate a car and driver for the day at a price, you can also post here and see what response you get but just be warned that not everyone who offers services is as good as they say. I have the contact info of a guy at the TW outside Xian who I would reccommend for a personal guide. Speaks great English, loads of character and knows his stuff. We just met him over lunch in a little diner out there and he entertained us for nothing with some stories he usually tells his clients. You would have to regotiate your own fees. I have no idea what he charges. He's a school teacher in real life _history I think. Let me know if you're interested and i'll forward his details to you. [/quote]
