Customized Xinjiang Tours
From emerald Kanas Lake to the spice-scented alleys of Kashgar—tailor-made, private, and rich with Silk Road soul.
Xinjiang is where China meets Central Asia—a land of snow-capped peaks, turquoise lakes, desert oases, and centuries-old bazaars. Home to Uyghur, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, and Han communities, it offers one of the most diverse cultural tapestries in Asia. At HelloChinaTrip, we design customized Xinjiang tours that balance epic landscapes with authentic human encounters—all with trusted local guides and comfortable logistics across this vast region.
Picture yourself sipping milk tea in a yurt on Nalati Grassland, watching sunset over the Flaming Mountains, or wandering Kashgar’s Sunday Market amid handwoven carpets and dried apricots. Our bespoke Xinjiang itineraries are built for discovery, comfort, and deep cultural respect.
