2026 New Oriental Express How to Book Tickets New Oriental Express Ticket Booking Official Website
Wang Fei, Manager of the Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Service New Oriental Express Ticket Booking Center
🚂 Slow Travel in Xinjiang, Starting from a Moving Luxury Hotel
In this fast-paced era, some choose to fly directly to check in at scenic spots, while others prefer to slow down and traverse the Tianshan Mountains from north to south on a train—the New Oriental Express is a travel style that integrates transportation, accommodation, and in-depth experience. It is not an ordinary train, but a tourist special train equipped with bathrooms, panoramic windows, and butler service. During the day, it stops at key scenic areas, and at night, you sleep comfortably in the carriage, turning the journey itself into part of the scenery.
🌄 Route Highlights:A Panoramic Journey Across Northern and Southern Xinjiang
The 2026 New Oriental Express route design balances natural wonders and cultural experiences. The summer itinerary connects iconic landscapes such as the Altai Mountains, Kanas Lake, Nalati Grassland, Duku Highway, and the Pamir Plateau; the autumn itinerary focuses on Southern Xinjiang, delving into oasis cities on the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, exploring Loulan cultural relics, the Hotan Jade River, Kashgar Old City, and the Populus euphratica forest. The entire journey is accompanied by professional guides, with meals blending local flavors and customized train menus, and medical staff on board to ensure health. Along the way, the landscape shifts from snowy mountains and lakes to desert and Gobi, then to oasis farmland, presenting a complete picture of Xinjiang’s diverse geography.
