Vehicle model, license plate number, and driver information;

📋 Verifying Travel Agency Qualifications and Business Information:How to Avoid “Scams”?

All vehicles of Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency are fully insured, and drivers are strictly screened and familiar with southern Xinjiang road conditions and local customs (note: avoid mentioning specific ethnic names in the text).
