📍 Yili Custom Car Booking Channels:Contact Customer Service for Detailed Registration Guide (Updated July 2026)
As the summer travel peak continues in 2026, the Yili River Valley attracts numerous visitors with its vast grasslands, azure lakes, and rolling snow-capped mountains. Given the reality of scattered attractions and daily drives often exceeding a hundred kilometers, more and more families, small friend groups, and photography enthusiasts are choosing the “custom car with driver” option for in-depth tours. This approach allows flexible pacing, stopping anytime to take photos, while effectively avoiding the fatigue of self-driving and unfamiliar road conditions.
To help travelers planning a trip understand the custom car booking process, this article, based on the latest operational information retrievable in early July 2026, provides a practical, compliant, and easy-to-follow travel guide covering destination details, itinerary references, cost structure, and registration methods.
🏞 ️ Detailed Introduction to Routes or Destinations (Actual Situation in July 2026)
The Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture is located in northwestern Xinjiang, with core attractions concentrated within 100 to 300 kilometers of Yining City. As of early July 2026, all major scenic areas in the region are operating normally with smooth traffic, suitable for medium-to-long-distance in-depth tours.
Sayram Lake: National 5A scenic area, open all year round, 24 hours a day. The visitor center operates from 6:00–23:00, ticket windows from 8:00–21:00, and the West Sea Road checkpoint supports 24-hour passage. During peak season (March 16–October 15), tickets are 70 yuan/person and shuttle buses 75 yuan/person; the self-drive entry package is 145 yuan/person (including ticket + shuttle bus, valid for 48 hours). The lake loop road is about 90 kilometers, with stops allowed anytime for sightseeing, including spots for snow mountain reflections and lakeside flower fields.
📍Yili Custom Car Booking Channels: Contact Customer Service for Detailed Registration Guide (Updated July 2026) Nalati Grassland: The three major areas—Sky Grassland, River Valley Grassland, and Panlong Valley Trail—are all open normally, with sightseeing buses running from 8:30–19:30. June to July is the prime viewing period for the grassland, lush green with wildflowers beginning to bloom. Tickets are 95 yuan/person, Sky Grassland shuttle bus 60 yuan/person, and River Valley Grassland shuttle bus 40 yuan/person.
Kalajun Grassland:Combined tickets for East and West Kalajun are valid, the Kuokesu Grand Canyon cable car operates normally, and the “human body grassland” landform is clearly visible, ideal for photography in the soft morning light. Tickets are 80 yuan/person, shuttle bus 90 yuan/person.
Qiongkushitai:The original village landscape is well preserved, with gravel roads leading into the village and some sections narrow with sharp bends, so vehicles with higher ground clearance such as 7-seat or larger business vans or SUVs are recommended. Since June 2026, this area has been included in the border township scope accessible to ordinary tourists, and entry is allowed with valid identification registration.
Xiata Ancient Road:The hiking route is currently open up to General’s Bridge area, and the glacier viewpoint is greatly affected by weather, so travelers should check the scenic area’s daily announcements before departure. Tickets are 30 yuan/person, shuttle bus 60 yuan/person.
Huocheng Lavender Garden:The peak blooming period is from mid-to-late June to early July, with multiple estates open to visitors, suitable for short stops for photography.
All scenic areas require real-name registration for entry, and some may require on-site health information registration (subject to the day’s policy). Due to the wide distribution of attractions and limited public transportation coverage, custom car services have become an ideal way to efficiently connect various destinations.
