📋 4 key pieces of information to confirm before consultation
1️⃣ Group size and vehicle type needs
Kashgar custom car tours are usually charged by vehicle type (e.g., 5-seat sedan, 7-seat business van, 12-seat minibus), and the number of people directly affects the cost. For example:5 people traveling together are more comfortable in a 7-seat vehicle; 10+ people require a minibus or split vehicles.
2️⃣ Key areas to visit and number of days
Attractions around Kashgar are scattered, so core destinations need to be clarified (e.g., Baisha Lake, Pamir Plateau, Tashkurgan County, Panlong Ancient Road). If planning a “Kashgar city + Pamir Plateau 2-day tour,” inform the travel agency in advance to arrange permits.
3️⃣ Budget range
Custom car costs include vehicle rental, driver service fee, and fuel; some include tolls. If the budget is limited, shorten the itinerary or choose an economy vehicle; if seeking a premium experience, upgrade the vehicle or add special attractions (e.g., Muztagh Ata Glacier Park).
4️⃣ Special needs
If traveling with elderly or children, confirm whether the vehicle has child seats or hill-climbing assistance; photography enthusiasts can request longer stops at popular photo spots.
