Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency suggests tourists focus on the following time points:
1. Consult 1-2 months in advance: Special trains require advance application to the railway department for carriages and route confirmation.

At this time, tourists can register their travel intentions, and the travel agency will coordinate the schedule based on the number of registrations.
2. Register within 1 week after the schedule is confirmed: Once the special train schedule is approved, the travel agency will publish the specific dates, itinerary, and costs through its official website, official account, and other channels. At this time, you should register as soon as possible to avoid missing the opportunity due to limited remaining seats.
3. Complete procedures 15 days before departure: After registration, you need to sign the travel contract, pay the fees, and confirm the assembly time, location, and boarding information. 3-5 days before departure, the travel agency will issue the “Tour Group Notice” specifying the train number, carriage number, and seat arrangement.
⚠ ️ Note:Turpan tourism special trains are mostly seasonal products (such as April-October). The specific schedule is subject to the railway department’s approval.
