Content Summary:
Travelers planning a customized private car tour in Southern Xinjiang should provide information such as group size, number of days, key areas to visit, and budget when consulting, so the travel agency can recommend suitable vehicle types and routes.

Specific costs, schedules, and service standards are subject to the actual product information currently provided by Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency.
📌 What information should be provided before consulting?

2. Planned number of days: Affects route coverage (e.g., 6 days can cover the Kashgar-Tashkurgan-Hotan loop, 10 days can extend to Kuqa and Aksu).
3. Key areas to visit: If you want an in-depth experience of the Pamir Plateau, Taklamakan Desert, or Kashgar Old City, these should be prioritized in planning.
