Best Xinjiang Tours 2026/2027: Private & Small Group Tours | Local Experts

Hi Jane, we did have a very wonderful time. The scenery of majestic mountains, the deep valleys and the endless green grasslands... They all exceed our expectations. I wish I had made the trip earlier in the season when it is cooler, due to my age and mobility problems, I would have enjoyed the trip more. 

We nearly missed the visit to the old town centre in Yining, because we hardly did any research on it (we had so many places to plan for this 2 and half months trip!). Your itinerary should highlight this place. As it is the only major cultural significant place to balance out the natural scenery of this trip.

We will give this trip 10 out of 10!
I need to add: our driver, Feng, was doing an excellent job. A good communicator, picks up quickly what I want to say with my very limited Mandarin. Willing to stop at beautiful place along the way and help us to take beautiful photos. He became our 'official' photographer! He is willing to meet most of our requests. On the last day, my wife left her phone in the hotel, he contacted the hotel to find it and took us back to get it back.

Thank you so much, Jane! It was only about six months ago that I first learned Xinjiang had such a fascinating history and culture, as well as so many beautiful landscapes. Xinjiang was truly an amazing place, even more wonderful than I had imagined! The people around me seemed quite busy, so it was difficult to ask anyone to join me. But I didn’t want to miss the opportunity, so I decided to travel abroad alone for the first time.

Thanks to the warm hospitality and kindness of everyone I’ve met in China, I’ve been able to enjoy my journey safely and comfortably. I’m truly grateful! When I return to Japan, I’d like to show my photos and videos to my family, friends, and colleagues and share with them how wonderful Xinjiang is.

I definitely want to visit Hoh Xil someday, as well as many other parts of China. Xinjiang in particular has become a place that I would really love to visit again.

Also, there doesn’t seem to be any change to my flight from Kashgar to Urumqi, so I should be able to visit the Sunday Bazaar! I’m flying back to Japan on the same day, and the flights are on separate tickets, so that’s the only thing I’m a little worried about, haha. But even if something happens, I’m sure it’ll make a good story to tell over drinks when I get home, so I’ll stay positive!

Hi Jane! I made it back to Japan safely. Thank you so much for everything!

At the livestock market, I got to see the sheep and cattle before they become all the delicious food I’d been eating throughout my trip. So in a funny way, I ended my journey by seeing where it all begins!

Thank you again for making my trip to Xinjiang such a wonderful experience. I really hope to come back someday!

Thank you, AJ. All the best to you in your guiding.I enjoyed the tour very much and your knowledge made it so enjoyable and also the healthy food tips we learned from you:))  Assalamulaikum. Also thank you to Xiao Wu for his great driving and his patience!

Hi Lesley, the stay at Wulumuqi was very good, Victor is a very good guide with excellent English speaking and good knowledge of the local history and tradition. The Tianshan mountains and Tianshi lake are impressive, good air, no pollution and life style is much more relax than in Shanghai. The bazaar was interesting too and the mix of the cultures is very easy going, Weather was great even maybe too hot and we checked that in turban it will be even hotter !!  we are looking forward to seing Turpan and the ancient town . 

Hello everyone, I would like to thank our two guides, Rossell and Ali , who took us on tours with smiles all the time, with extreme kindness, and shared all their knowledge with us. Also, thanks to the drivers who always got us to our destinations safely and made this journey an exceptional experience. Thank you all for organizing this.

Just got back to Hong Kong a few hours ago. Everyone had a great time— really enjoyed our trip to Xinjiang organized by you. The drivers, buses and all 3 guides were excellent. Victor of course was a real star again! I will write a very positive review for you in next few days. Hope to call on you again when we want to visit northern Xinjiang.

Thank you everyone for a wonderful trip. I saw everything I wanted to see. It was amazing looking at the scenery. Driver is very patient and kind too. Hotel was nice especially in Taxkorgan.xie xie ! 

Thank you Leslie for the arrangements. Master Han was a great driver and friend to us. We enjoyed ourselves very much and would recommend Xinjiang to all our Malaysian friends.
