Main Text
In recent years, the Urumqi tourist train has become a popular choice for tourists visiting northern and southern Xinjiang, thanks to its features of “one train all the way, travel by night and sightsee by day.” However, train costs vary significantly due to factors such as departure schedule, route, berth type, and service standards. How can you accurately calculate costs and verify itinerary information? Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency, based on current real products, has outlined the key steps for you.
📊 What factors determine the cost of the tourist train?
1. Departure schedule and season
Tourist trains typically depart from May to October, covering core routes such as Kanas and Ili Grassland in northern Xinjiang and Kashgar in southern Xinjiang. During peak season (July–August and the National Day holiday), costs are 10%–20% higher than in the off-season, and some popular departures need to be booked 1–2 months in advance.

Currently available train routes are mainly 8–12 days, for example:
Northern Xinjiang loop (Urumqi–Kanas–Hemu–Sayram Lake):8–9 days, costing approximately 3,800–5,200 yuan per person;
Grand loop of northern and southern Xinjiang (Urumqi–Kanas–Ili–Kashgar–Turpan):12 days, costing approximately 5,800–7,500 yuan per person.
The longer the route and the more scenic spots included, the higher the cost.
3. Berth type and service standards
Train berths are divided into hard sleeper and soft sleeper. Soft sleeper, offering more space and greater privacy, typically costs 30%–50% more than hard sleeper. Some products include scenic area tickets, local meals, and shuttle transportation, which increases the cost accordingly.
🔍 How to verify itinerary information? 3 steps to avoid discrepancies

Content Summary1. Check current departure schedules and availability
Train departure schedules are subject to railway department dispatch, so you need to confirm specific departure dates and remaining berths through the travel agency. For example, the 2026 northern Xinjiang loop train is planned to depart on June 15 and July 5, and currently available departures must be confirmed in real time with the travel agency.
2. Verify the written itinerary and what is included in the fee
The written itinerary must clearly specify the scenic spots visited each day, dining locations, accommodation standards, and transportation methods. For example:
Day 3:Urumqi–Beitun (overnight train), Day 4: Beitun–Kanas (scenic area shuttle, tickets included);
Fee includes:train berth, first admission tickets to scenic areas, 5 breakfasts and 8 lunches/dinners, local air-conditioned tour bus.
If the itinerary notes “at your own expense” or “recommended optional activities,” additional fees will apply.
