BOOK NOW! I can't say enough good about Michael at Lily's Private Tours. After reading all the great reviews, our expectations were high, but he still completely exceeded them in every way. We had an incredible time seeing the Terracotta Warriors and Mt Huashan, and Michael offered such specialized knowledge that I feel like we got a truly unique experience.
When I travel, I typically value independence/authenticity, so I try to stay away from formal tours. However, here everything was so personalized yet so open-ended (i.e. we got exactly the amount of hiking in that we wanted--no more no less, etc.) and customized that it never felt overbearing. Oh, and the food was amazing. The places he took us for lunch and his recommendations around the city after the tour was over made our whole trip that much better.
