These 5 items must be clarified
In custom car tours, the driver is not just a driver but also a “living map” and “coordinator” for the trip. Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency reminds travelers to confirm the following service items before signing:
1️⃣ Driving and service
The driver must hold a valid driver’s license and be familiar with Xinjiang road conditions and traffic rules, especially special sections like mountainous and plateau areas.
Daily driving time should not exceed 8 hours to avoid fatigue driving and ensure trip safety.
2️⃣ Attraction connections and time management
The driver must arrive at meeting points on time according to the itinerary and assist travelers in planning travel time between attractions.
For example:From Urumqi to Sayram Lake takes about 5 hours, and the driver needs to reserve enough time for checkpoints or temporary road conditions.
