This route focuses on the Ili River Valley and the Tianshan hinterland, covering alpine lakes, aerial grasslands, canyon wetlands, and China’s famous scenic highway—the Duku Highway, suitable for tourists who love natural scenery, photography, and a relaxed pace.📋 Cost and service description
Customized car services typically include experienced local drivers familiar with road conditions, weather changes, and scenic area opening status, allowing for negotiation of daily driving pace based on actual needs.
Vehicle type should be reasonably matched based on route complexity and road conditions:Road conditions on the Ili River Valley route are good in summer, but some mountainous sections recommend using SUVs or business vehicles with higher ground clearance; although the Duku Highway is paved, altitude changes are significant, so stable 7-seat or larger vehicles are recommended.
For solo travelers, our company will try to arrange shared rooms, with special cases negotiated separately.
Scenic area opening status and road access conditions during the trip may be affected by weather, policies, etc., and reasonable changes to the itinerary can be made by mutual agreement.
All service content, prices, vehicle models, and itinerary arrangements are subject to actual consultation and contract.

Xinjiang’s vast territory means different routes have significantly different vehicle performance requirements:
Northern Xinjiang loop (e.g., Kanas, Hemu):Mostly paved roads, suitable for regular 7-seat business vehicles or 9-seat and above minibuses.
Sayram Lake: Known as ‘the last tear of the Atlantic Ocean,’ the lake is azure blue, surrounded by snow-capped mountains, offering beautiful scenery in all seasons.Ili River Valley route (Sayram Lake, Nalati, Bayanbulak):Recommend 7–17-seat high-ground-clearance business vehicles for comfort and passability.
Southern Xinjiang Pamir Plateau route (Kashgar to Tashkurgan direction):Some sections are unpaved, recommend 14-seat and above hardcore off-road minibuses.
Eastern Xinjiang short routes (Turpan, Tianshan Tianchi):Regular 7–12-seat business vehicles are sufficient.
Regardless of the vehicle type chosen, ensure the vehicle has legal operating qualifications and the driver is certified for a compliant trip.
