📌 Customized car tour booking process: Step-by-step for greater efficiencyThe cost of a customized car tour is usually determined by the following factors, and tourists should choose based on actual needs:
Vehicle type and number of people:The larger the vehicle (e.g., off-road vehicle, minibus), the higher the daily cost; the more people traveling together, the lower the per-person cost.
Number of itinerary days:The longer the days, the higher the total cost, but the daily average cost may decrease due to economies of scale.
Seasonal impact:June–August is the peak tourism season in Xinjiang, with tight vehicle resources and costs potentially rising by 10%–20%; September–October is the photography peak season, with higher accommodation prices in Kanas, Hemu, and other areas, requiring advance booking.
Service standards:Whether driver meal and accommodation subsidies are included and whether professional tour guide accompaniment is needed will affect the total cost.
Example:If 4 people choose a 7-seat business van to visit Tianchi Lake, Kanas, and Sayram Lake over a 6-day 5-night trip, the peak season cost in 2026 may be 4000–5000 yuan per person (including vehicle fees and driver subsidies, excluding tickets and meals).
