💬 Voices from real travelers
Ms. Ouyang from Guangzhou shared: “Just finished a nine-day southern Xinjiang trip, from the vibrant atmosphere of Kashgar Old City to the magnificence of the Pamir Plateau — the scenery along the way was picturesque. What truly made the journey smooth was our driver-guide, Sima Yigong. He wasn’t just a ‘living map’ but also a caring companion — steady driving, patient explanations, and proactively helping us adjust camera angles. After nine days, it felt like gaining a Xinjiang friend.”
Another traveler, Mr. Wang from Beijing, mentioned: “I was initially worried about a large group tour being superficial, but this 18-person small group had a very comfortable pace. The guide didn’t rush us, leaving ample time at every attraction, and even arranged a special nighttime photography reminder for the starry sky at Hemu. Accommodation was clean, food was authentic, and most importantly, we didn’t enter a single shopping store throughout the trip — truly at ease.”
