it was a wonderful tour. I’m a foreigner not speaking Chinese but could complete the tour using translator app. Tour operator communicated beforehand and provided a bus license number so that I can ride a right bus.(there were 6 bus in front of hotel!) Also it is better to take a screen shot of your number next to your name. Roll call was done a couple of times by a number in Chinese. I exchanged We hat with a guide so that I could receive a QR code which is required for people without Chinese ID card. There are multiple options to choose from. I chose a option which includes everything. (Flying over the world, cable car and boat) Flying over the world attraction was fun. Lunch was provided with traditional dance. it was well organized tour and tour guide was excellent.

The tour was goid experience. Our guide, Mr. Zhou was a helpful, very informative guy. The highlught of this tour for me is the camel ride to top of Flaming Mountain, where you can see the rocky part, sand part and the whole gigantic view of Flaming Mountain..It's spectacular. There is some add-on in this tour, I paid extra 180RMB for lunch & camel ride.

The tour brought us an amazing Xinjiang. This tour was really well-organized with details of destinations,weather,dress codes. The tour guide XiaoZhou took care of us very warmly. He introduced about the destinations in details as well as the safety warnings. He aslo gave us many recommendations and tips when we needed to by souvenirs in Urumqi.

This trip was very enjoyable. Although there was a wide age range in our group, everyone got along remarkably well. The itinerary was also well-planned and not too tiring. The hotels were all mid-to-high end with excellent hygiene. Our driver, Shen Kequan, also acted as our guide. He was quietly efficient and didn't talk too much. My mother is elderly and not very mobile, and he helped her with her luggage throughout the trip, which greatly added to the positive experience.

It was a great experience! As time spent mostly on the road, when you enjoy the best views of the mountains & grasslands, a private tour gave us lots of private space & flexibility to stop if we want. Every sight was breathtaking. Our driver/guide was friendly & very patient with us. Helped us take photos too.
