📍 How to customize a trip from Kashgar? Flexible schedule changes with driver-included car rental
With the arrival of the 2026 summer travel peak, more and more tourists are choosing to depart from Kashgar and venture deep into the Pamir Plateau to experience the magnificent natural scenery and profound cultural heritage of southern Xinjiang. Compared to self-driving or group tours, driver-included customized car rental services, with their strong flexibility, controllable pace, and hassle-free convenience, have become the preferred choice for family trips, photography tours, and slow-paced travelers. Based on the latest verifiable information from early July 2026, this article outlines the key points for customizing car rentals from Kashgar.
🌄 Detailed introduction to routes or destinations
Kashgar is an important node on the ancient Silk Road and the gateway to the Pamir Plateau. Departing from here and heading southwest through the Gaizi Gorge, the landscape along the way is rich in layers: the Oytak Red Mountains display the fiery colors of Danxia landforms;白沙湖 (Baisha Lake) mirrors the majestic silhouette of Muztagh Ata like a mirror; at Karakul Lake, you can gaze up close at the ‘Father of Icebergs’; and the Panlong Ancient Road in Tashkurgan County, known for its winding twists, symbolizes ‘After walking all the detours today, the rest of life will be smooth sailing,’ attracting many tourists to take photos and leave their mark.
As of late June 2026, the Kashgar Old City, Gaotai Folk Houses, Xiangfei Garden, Baisha Lake, Muztagh Ata viewpoint, Karakul Lake, and main areas of Tashkurgan County are open to tourists. Traveling towards Tashkurgan County requires advance reservation through the ‘One Mobile Phone Tour Xinjiang’ platform and on-site pass verification. Some road sections may be affected by weather or temporary traffic controls; actual traffic conditions are subject to review by the public security department on the day, and itineraries can be reasonably adjusted with mutual agreement.
