Fantastic 5.0
Our Chinese driver and tour guide, Xu Mingyu, was friendly, helpful, and accommodating. He used a translation app to communicate with us and always made sure we were comfortable and happy throughout the tour. We booked a package with 7 full days of touring and one free day to explore the city. The price was surprisingly affordable, but the experience exceeded our expectations from the very first day! The hotels were genuinely 4 💎 quality. Our accommodation in Kanas was more basic, as expected in a mountain area, but the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Overall, we found all the accommodations relaxing and pleasant. Every destination was beautiful and peaceful. Tianchi, or Heavenly Lake, was my favorite, while Kanas was breathtaking despite the cold weather. The van is comfortable even during long drives. This tour offered excellent value for money and unforgettable memories. Highly recommended! We will definitely book with them again for our next Xinjiang adventure! ❤️

A one-day tour to Heavenly Lake of Tianshan is hassle-free with punctual pick-up and drop-off. The lake boasts stunning scenery, where snow-capped mountains mirror the lake like a picturesque painting. The tour guide is thoughtful and informative. There’s plenty of time for sightseeing. No shopping stops throughout the trip, making it relaxing and well worth visiting

This was truly an exceptional trip. Our butler, Yushan, was extremely reliable. Every evening, she would post all the arrangements and precautions for the following day in the group chat, covering every detail with great care. A huge shout-out to our driver and tour guide, Team Leader Su! Not only does he have a great personality, but he is also a very steady driver. The itinerary was well-organized, and he actively checked in with us about our preferences, helped us take photos and videos, and had great aesthetic sense and skills. We chatted a lot along the way, which was very fun. Even during traffic jams and at crowded scenic spots, he took care of us to ensure we had the best possible experience. I imagine the experience would have been even better if we hadn't visited Northern Xinjiang during the National Day peak period. Overall, we are extremely satisfied. Team Leader Su even prepared photo props, snacks, and water for us, and gave everyone a little toy sheep. It was truly a wonderful trip. The last day of the trip happened to be my mom's birthday, and Team Leader Su quietly ordered a cake for her. It was so thoughtful and touching; my mom had a very happy and surprising birthday. It was wonderful, and the friends we met along the journey were also exceptionally kind people. Although there were traffic jams and crowded scenic spots, this was still an unforgettable and highly satisfying trip. Highly recommended, very reliable. We will definitely book our trip to Southern Xinjiang with you guys next year.

Excellent! WeChat is a must. Scan your passport at the ticket gate. Met the guide at Turpan Station. Communication was done using WeChat's translation feature. We had an 8-seater van with USB charging sockets, and paid an additional 170 yuan (for camels, desert entry, and village visit). We went to the Flaming Mountains photo spot, then rode camels, tasted watermelon, had lunch at a folk village for 25 yuan, explored the village, walked in the desert (off-road vehicles and other options available), and then headed to the station. We were scheduled to arrive around 10:30 PM, but got there before 9:00 PM and were able to switch to an earlier train. There's a cafeteria at Turpan Station.

I had a great time with this tour. The driver Mr. Zhang was prompt and attentive. The scenic area was under construction at multiple places. The cable car ride to get to the mountain was not included in the ticket, but the driver helped me to make the purchase. The ticket is another 200 yuan and worth the experience to reach the summit.

I highly recommend this private tour, in 9 days we were able to appreciate the beauty of Xinjiang. I am still processing how unreal the places are. Truly grateful also to the most accomodating and patient driver, Mr.Lee, despite the language barrier we felt very taken care of by him.

Great 4.0
The itinerary included punctual pick-up and departure. The local guide was very clear about the optional activities and the route. We had ample time at Tianchi Lake in Tianshan, and the scenery was beautiful. After the tour, we returned to the city on time. This is quite convenient for those looking to join a day trip.

Great 4.0
Although the initial meeting location was changed, causing the inconvenience of taking a 30-minute taxi ride from my hotel, the weather on the day of the tour was great, making it a wonderful time to sightsee and enjoy the natural scenery. The guide even treated us to lamb skewers since we came from Korea, and with the relaxed itinerary, it felt like a perfect day to truly take in nature.

Travellers from Hong Kong book most in July, when demand climbs about 135% above a typical month, while February is the quietest, roughly 81% below typical — expect July bookings to sell out faster. Based on Klook historical booking data.

Attraction passes
HK$351 HK$437 HK$413

What to know before visiting Urumqi

What to expect in Urumqi

The Things to Do catalogue is led by Tours followed by Attraction passes, giving a mix of full-day guided options and quick-ticket experiences so travellers can choose either immersive sightseeing or a low-commitment stop. Demand peaks in July and is at its quietest in February, so expect the heaviest booking pressure in July and much lighter crowds in February. That seasonality means similar experiences are easier to book in February than in July, while July needs more planning for popular time slots.

Choosing which activities to book

The main decision is whether you want a wide selection of guided options or quick tickets — Tours offer the broadest price range, typically around HKD 7,166 at the usual level and ranging from HKD 4,990 to HKD 8,055. Attraction passes are the most affordable way in, with a typical price of HKD 413, and their narrower price band means shopping around usually changes little.

If you prefer options that suit families or travellers wanting a guided itinerary, the upper-end Tours can fit that need; the attraction passes work well for short visits or gap-filling. Mid-range choices are where inclusions vary most, so look at descriptions to match what you value — convenience and guidance versus simple access.

When travellers from Hong Kong book

Most travellers book roughly 24 days ahead, while the earliest planners book around 53 days ahead. That typical booking horizon means plan on booking about one to four weeks ahead for most activities, and be more cautious in July when demand is highest.

How prices across categories compare

This table shows how Urumqi’s top activity categories compare on price so you can set a budget before choosing.

Category Typical Price Usual Range
Tours HKD 7,166 HKD 4,990 – HKD 8,055
Attraction passes HKD 413 HKD 351 – HKD 437

Typical price is the median paid on Klook; the usual range covers the middle half of bookings, so cheaper and pricier options exist outside it; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, August 2025 – July 2026.
