3️⃣ Qualification verification:You can verify qualifications through the driver’s driver’s license and professional qualification certificate photos provided by the travel agency (sensitive information should be obscured) or the vehicle insurance policy during the trip.
4️⃣ Service evaluation reference:When inquiring, you can request the travel agency to provide recent reviews of drivers from travelers on the same route (anonymized), focusing on service attitude, driving skills, and adaptability.
Example:If planning a customized car tour of the Northern Xinjiang Kanas loop, you can request a driver familiar with driving techniques for the curves on S232 Provincial Road (Jiadengyu to Kanas section) and knowledgeable about the best viewing time for the morning mist at Hemu Village.
📅 Can the itinerary be changed? What are the change rules?
Customized car tours offer high flexibility, but itinerary changes must follow these principles:

Content Summary:1️⃣ Contract terms take priority:The customized car contract signed before departure will specify the itinerary framework (such as daily stops at scenic spots, accommodation locations). Changes require mutual negotiation and written confirmation.
2️⃣ Actual road condition limitations: Some sections of Xinjiang roads are affected by weather (such as the Duku Highway closing in winter), and changes must be based on real-time road conditions. For example, the Duku Highway is expected to be open from June to October in 2026. If planning to cross in late September, you should reserve a backup plan in case of temporary closure due to snowfall.
3️⃣ Scenic area policy changes:Some scenic areas require advance reservations (such as Kanas Scenic Area requiring ticket reservations through the “Yuanxing Wang” platform). Itinerary changes require reconfirming entry times and visitor number limits.
4️⃣ Fee change explanation:If changes result in increased car rental days, upgraded accommodation standards, or changes in scenic spot tickets, the price difference must be paid according to the contract. If items are reduced, confirm whether refunds are possible (some scenic area tickets are real-name registered and may not be refundable or changeable).
Example:Originally planning to go directly from Yining to Sayram Lake, if you want to add the Huocheng Lavender Manor (blooming period from late June to early July), you need to confirm:
