The “Baiyun” tourist special train launched by Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency takes “low intensity, deep experience, full service” as its core and creates a panoramic tour of northern and southern Xinjiang suitable for people over 50. The 18 carriages recommend carrying 92 passengers and are equipped with star-rated butlers, professional doctors, and photographers. The whole journey adopts a “train + local small group” model, with an average daily drive of no more than 4 hours, allowing seniors to bid farewell to travel anxiety and immersively experience Silk Road charm.
👩💼 [Message from the Itinerary Designer]
“We surveyed the needs of more than 2,000 elderly tourists and found that seniors want to see classics such as Kanas and Sayram Lake, but are also afraid of the fatigue of traveling,” introduced Wang Fei, manager of Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency. “Baiyun adopts a ‘travel by night, tour by day’ design. For example, the 12-hour journey from Urumqi to Altay is entirely arranged at night, while daytime is focused on core attractions such as Hemu Village and the Three Bays of Kanas, saving time while ensuring proper rest.”
