🔹 Real traveler feedback
Feedback from Mr. Chen from Shanghai: “I just finished a 10-day Kanas + Ili combined tour. From the vastness of the S21 Desert Highway to the relaxing morning mist of Hemu, from the liveliness of Kanas Three Bays to the clarity of Sayram Lake, the scenery along the way far exceeded expectations. Our driver, Master Wang, drove steadily and knew the best viewing times for every attraction. He also proactively took many group photos for us, and the drone footage of the grassland panorama was especially stunning. The whole trip had no rush or anxiety—we could stop whenever we wanted. Great experience.”
Feedback from Ms. Li from Chengdu: “My best friend and I booked the 8-day Ili Shata + Kalajun route. All the hotels were clean with private bathrooms and hot water. The restaurants the driver recommended along the way were authentic and reasonably priced. We never entered any shopping stores. The itinerary pace was just right—no early mornings or rushing. We both felt the money was well spent.”
Feedback from Ms. Ouyang from Guangzhou: “I just finished a nine-day Southern Xinjiang trip. From the vibrant atmosphere of Kashgar Old City to the grandeur of the Pamir Plateau, from the vastness of the Taklamakan Desert to the magnificent Wensu Grand Canyon, the scenery was picturesque. What truly brought this picture to life was our driver-guide, Brother Simayi. Over nine days together, he was not just our driver but also our ‘living map’ and ‘know-it-all’ in Xinjiang. His driving was extremely steady, and he communicated with us in advance about any temporary route changes. The entire journey was very enjoyable.”
Travel tips:Xinjiang is vast with long distances between attractions. Prepare comfortable items for the ride before departure. Temperature differences between morning and evening are significant—even in summer, it’s recommended to bring a light jacket. UV rays are strong, so take sun protection measures. Respect local customs during the trip and help maintain a good travel environment.
