According to regulations from the Xinjiang Culture and Tourism Department, all vehicles used for tourism reception must hold a ‘Road Transport Permit’ and a customized tourism vehicle identifier. Therefore, this article does not involve unlicensed 5-seat private cars or ‘black cars.’ Currently, mainstream compliant vehicle models include:“We customized an 8-day Northern Xinjiang loop and used a 7-seat high-roof MPV with plenty of space. Driver Brother Adili not only drove smoothly but also helped us find excellent photo spots. We didn’t enter a single shopping store throughout the trip, and the kids had a great time.”
Ms. Zhang from Chengdu (photography enthusiast):
“I specifically booked a Kanas morning mist + starry sky photography tour. The driver cooperated with a 4 AM departure and even brought a portable tripod. The car was clean, the air conditioning was effective, much more reliable than renting a car myself.”
Mr. Wang from Shanghai (three generations traveling together):
“The elderly have difficulty walking, so the travel agency arranged a low-floor minibus, making it easy to get on and off. The daily itinerary wasn’t rushed, and we could return to the hotel for a rest at noon. The service was very attentive.”
