Xinjiang Tours

Xinjiang Tours

Xinjiang, which means 'New Territory' in Chinese, is China's largest province (autonomous region) . The 6th tallest mountain range in the world, Tianshan (the 'Heavenly Mountains') lies across this land. Two great basins lie to the south and north.

The Altai Mountains (north), Altun Mountains (east), Pamirs (west), and Kunlun Mountains (south) draw the outline of Xinjiang. These great mountains cradle the diverse landscapes of Xinjiang, snowy peaks, forests, lakes, grasslands, deserts, Yardang rockforms, and canyons.

Xinjiang is the homeland of 13 Chinese ethnic minorities . Nomadic cultures give north Xinjiang a free-living feel and romantic temperament, while oasis cultures and the Silk Road give south Xinjiang an exotic and profound backdrop.

  • The best time for a Xinjiang tour depends on which area you will visit. April to August is the best time for the Ili River Valley (east Xinjiang). June to early October is best for north Xinjiang. March to October are good months for south Xinjiang.
  • 7 days are recommended for your first Xinjiang tour to experience the highlights of Xinjiang including Urumqi, Turpan, and Kashgar. If you would like to enjoy a colorful summer in the east of Xinjiang or a golden autumn in the north Xinjiang, we suggest spending 8 days. If you would like to have an adventure in south Xinjiang, cross the great Taklimakan Desert, and visit the Pamirs, 12 days is recommended.
  • Transportation to Xinjiang is somewhat limited. Xinjiang is far away from China's largest cities. Xinjiang's capital Urumqi is its gateway city with direct flights from big cities such as Beijing, Xi'an, Chengdu, Shanghai… You can also take a bullet train from Lanzhou to Urumqi via Xining, Zhangye, Dunhuang, and Turpan, to explore the Silk Road. Xinjiang's main destinations can be accessed with Urumqi flights. There is also a direct flight between Kashgar and Yining, top city of Ili. Otherwise, i.e. most of the time, visitors need to travel around Xinjiang by car, but highways are well developed.

No matter whether you are attracted by Xinjiang's fantastic landscapes, its ancient culture, or its ethnic minority flavor, we are well prepared to offer the best suggestions according to your schedule and interests.

Tips for Your Xinjiang Tour

Yes , Xinjiang is safe to visit. The Uyghur people are friendly and hospitable. Most visitors feel it is totally safe in the main tourist areas, though there may be an elevated police presence.

During your Xinjiang tour with China Highlights , you will have a personal guide and driver. They will escort you to make sure your tour goes smoothly and resolve any problems, though there seldom are any. Your guide will advise you on local customs to avoid any awkwardness.

During this COVID-19-affected period , Xinjiang has travel restrictions that are stricter than in other parts of China. So, you don't need to worry so much about the pandemic. We will help you prepare the extra documents needed for Xinjiang travel during this special time.

Generally speaking, Xinjiang has low rainfall and large temperature differences between day and night and season to season.

North Xinjiang, which has vast grasslands, forests, and high mountains, is wetter and cooler than southern Xinjiang (Kashgar, Turpan, Hetian, Aksu, etc.), which has huge deserts. The hottest place in Xinjiang is Turpan, where the temperature could be over 40°C (104°F) in July.

In Xinjiang, you could experience four seasons in one day . So, we suggest bringing a jacket and sweater besides t-shirts even in summertime.

Hotel choices, especially for foreign visitors, in Xinjiang are limited, particularly luxury hotels. Most of the local hotels are not as modern as those in central and eastern China. Hotel management is not as good as in other parts of China either.

We will help you select and book the best possible hotels for your Xinjiang tour according to your needs/requests.

Local people eat a lot of beef and lamb and prefer dishes with strong flavors . Vegetable choices are not as varied as in eastern China. You can have great noodles, Xinjiang crusty pancakes, and delicious roast dumplings. Xinjiang fried rice should not be missed either.

Xinjiang is also a paradise for fruit lovers. You can enjoy China's best watermelons, honey melons, apples, pears, grapes, pomegranates, cherries, apricots…

When is the best time to visit Xinjiang?

How to get to xinjiang.

xinjiang tour package

The most convenient way to Xinjiang is to take flights. For instance, it needs only 4-5 hours to fly from Beijing to Urumqi, but the train from Beijing to Urumqi usually takes no less than 30 hours on the way.

xinjiang tour package

In China, the most economical transportation for travelers is train, by which you can commence a Xinjiang tour directly from most cities in mainland China. As Xinjiang is located in remote area, the train ride normally takes a very long time. Therefore, the train trip is suitable for the tourists who have enough time but less budget. If you are interested, you can also reach Lanzhou or Xining first and then have a high-speed train experience to Urumqi which is faster than the normal trains.

Xinjiang Travel FAQs

How do i get to central asia from xinjiang.

You can go to Pakistan via Khunjerab Pass in Kashgar, Xinjiang.

You can go to Kyrgyzstan via Irkeshtan Pass or Tuergat Port in Kashgar, Xinjiang.

You can go to Tajikistan via Karasu Pass in Kashgar, Xinjiang.

You can go to Kazakhstan via Horgos Pass at in Yining, Xinjiang.

You can go to Mongolia via Takshkent Pass in Altay, Xinjiang.

Which tourist areas in Xinjiang require travel permit or closed for foreign tourists?

If you want to go to the Bayinbuluk, you have to apply for the travel permit. That takes at least 60 days.

If you want to visit Karakul Lake, it also asks for travel permit but easier than Bayinbuluk. Apply 7 days in advance will be better and we can help you to do it if you choose to travel with us. 

Luobu People's Folk Culture Village Area and Baihaba Village are not open to Foreign tourists.

Are there any taboos of ethnic groups in Xinjiang?

After washing your hands or face, please do not shake the water off your hands.

Most ethnic minorities in Xinjiang believe in Islam and they do not eat pork and some of them even do not drink alcohol.

When eating and having conversation with locals, do remember that spitting, sniveling, gaping, burping, and breaking wind are impolite. 

To be a guest in a Uygur family, wash hands before and after the meal and dry them with a towel, but only three times.

When dining in a Uygur family, do not fiddle food on hands, do not go to the front of cookstoves, do not leave food in the bowl and do not let rice fall.

If you'd like to take photos of local people or take photos with them, you'd better ask them first. 

What kind of items should I bring when traveling to Xinjiang

Personal care items:

Sun cream SPF30+, moisturizing skincare products, anti-bacterial hand snitizer, wipes, basic medicines, feminine items, shaving items, etc.

Other things:

Your passport or other identity documents, phone or laptop charger, power bank, waterbottle, camera, energy snack, ear plugs, etc.

What to eat in Xinjiang

Xinjiang food is characterized by roast mutton, kebabs, roast fish and hand-pulled noodles. That actually is quite different from that of the rest of China. Pull up a chair at a small Uygur restaurant, you will be treated as the most honored guest even if you don't speak the local language.

How is the weather in Xinjiang?

There will be a big temperature difference for day and night and in different regions in Xinjiang. For example, In summer, the daytime tempreture could be above 20℃, while it may drop below 0℃ in some areas at night. So it will be better to check the weather of your destinations separately.

How many days should I spend in Xinjiang?

The sights in Xinjiang are relatively scattered and it typically takes more than 2 hours to drive from one spot to the other. So it would be better to plan a 5 to 10 days holiday for traveling northern or southern Xinjiang. If you would like to have an in-depth Xinjiang tour including both north and south, then at least plan a 15 days trip to explore the whole region.

When is the best time to Xinjiang?

The best time to travel Xinjiang is from April to November. If you also like the ice and snow world in Xinjiang, then it is nice to travel to all year round.

In spring, blossom of various flowers is everywhere in Xinjiang. You will see losts of lovely flowers competing to bloom. (from March to May )

Summer is for grassland. Galloping on the vast grassland in Ili breathing the freshest air with the aroma of lavender and tasting the sweetest fruit and ice cream, you will be the happiest one in the world!  (from June to August )

Go to northern Xinjiang in autum. You will enjoy the high sky and light cloud in Kanas and Hemu with the fascinating morning fog and mist. (from September to November ) 

Winter sports in Xinjiang is also nice to experience as the snow and ice are perfect for having these activities. (from December to next February )

Where should I go in Xinjiang as a first-timer?

It highly depends on your preference. You can find almost anything you want to experience in a trip in Xinjiang.

In south Xinjiang, you can expect the most colorful ethnic cultures. Have a cup of rose tea in the old teahouse of Kashgar Old City and appreciating the unique dancing show of local Uygur. Have a luch in the special restaurant and then go to visit the interesting livestock bazaar... The magnificent mountains and crystal-like lakes on the Pamir Plateau are also must-see things on the Karakoram Highway. Or you can even drive freely across the world's longest and earliest-built desert highway to enjoy the beauty of populus forest in Luntai...

In west Xinjiang, lovely snow mountains and beautiful lakes will fill your dreams with fairy tale. Run freely on the vast grassland which is full of little colorful wildflowers and immerse yourself in the fascinating Sayram Lake... And the most beautiful highway in China - Duku Highway will bring you to experience the four seasons of Xinjiang in a single day. Be careful that do not lost your soul in the extremely stunning scenery in west Xinjiang~

In northern Xinjiang, Kanas and Hemu are the 2 highlights. The local Tuva nomadic culture is very different from the other parts of Xinjiang as the Tuvas are living in the special wooden house. There is the only European-like place in China as the lush pine forest and continuous meadows looks very like the scenery in Switzerland. If you prefer trekking tour, northern Xinjiang should be your best choice!

Are the hotel, food costs covered in the package, or is it excluded? Do we tip your tour guide, or we don't have to?

Thank you for your comment! The tour package includes breakfast at hotels and a welcome dinner for our group. However, other lunches and dinners are not covered, allowing you to choose freely or seek recommendations from our local guide. In Xinjiang, it's a good courtesy to tip service industry workers, though not customary in the other parts of China. If you have more questions, feel free to ask. We're here to ensure your Tibet tour is an unforgettable experience.

How can I book a Xinjiang group tour?

Although there are not too many direct flights between Xinjiang and other cities, we know how to book the flights to make your journey more enjoyable. Check out our Xinjiang tours to get some travel ideas, and we can customize the trip to suit your interests. Our travel consultants will contact you with more information to arrange the best Xinjiang adventure!

What are the Dos and Donts for Xinjiang travel?

Do remember that there is 2hrs time difference between Xinjiang and Beijing, but the official time in Xinjiang is still Beijing Time.

The taste of Xinjiang food is usually sour, spicy, and sweet. Most dishes contain onions, chili peppers and tomatoes. If you cannot accept any of them, do remember to inform the restaurant in advance.

Xinjiang cuisine tends to have a lot of meat. If your digestive system cannot afford, don't force yourself. Vegetable and fruit are also nice choices

Except Pamir Plateau in Tashkurgan, there is almost no need to worry the high altitude sickness in other regions of Xinjiang.

There may be some security checks in Xinjiang. But don't worry, just regular checks like you have experienced in train stations and airports. Just cooperate and be patient so that the procedures will go smoothly and quickly.
