My wife and I are looking for affordable options and have chosen the Shifang Premium Platinum Quadruple Room, which costs around 9000 yuan per person. There are three shopping stores at this price point, but there is no mandatory consumption. We always follow along for a while and then come out, and the tour guide is also expressionless. The worry free part is that both accommodation and local meals are included, and the taste is not bad. However, the extra money to be spent needs to be calculated in advance: scenic spot tickets and fees, and meals on the train will have to be paid for by oneself. Fortunately, the staff will make a list in advance, so you don't have to guess by yourself.

故事还未完Will shopping stores force them to buy? Is there anything else besides the ticket that costs extra?Comment
星空V8AuthorReply故事还未完:Some of us in the same group didn't buy anything. The additional expenses are mainly for ticket sales and scenic spots, such as Kanas and Tianshan Tianchi. We also brought some water and snacks on the train ourselves, which would not be expensive if we bought them.Comment

If the budget is sufficient, strongly try the exclusive Purple Gold Quadruple Room on Shifang! It looks like 30000 yuan per person, but it can be called a hands off shopkeeper style travel! This price includes all package meals, including admission tickets, scenic transportation, and all meals. The train also offers table meals on the dining car. The highest price for the local 6 specialty meals is 150 yuan per person. The Taxian yak meat hotpot is very satisfying. All accommodations are four or five diamond hotels and scenic homestays. The most worry free thing is transportation. The Duku Highway and Panlong Ancient Road both have 7-seater small cars for pick-up and drop off, and the staff are even more considerate than children. To be honest, this room type is quite popular. Hurry up and go to the foot travel special train to see if there are any remaining tickets. They are official agents, so if you are interested, place your order as soon as possible.

yz_杏子114Compared to Zhenxiang, Zunxiang is much more expensive. Apart from food and accommodation, are there any special worry free services?Comment
yz_zxl590AuthorReplyyz_杏子114:What's expensive is the ultimate peace of mind! Firstly, there is transportation. There are multiple 2+1 buses, and the Duku Highway has a 7-seater car, which is 10 times more comfortable for sightseeing than buses. Secondly, there is VIP treatment. Some scenic spots have exclusive passages, so there is no need to crowd. Even the welcome banquet in Kashgar is a VIP seat. The most intimate thing is that all tickets are included, so you don't have to queue up to buy tickets, and you don't have to do any exercises on Dim sum.Comment

I can tell you about the cost of a 17 day trip to Xinjiang on the Shifang special train. We chose a deluxe platinum quadruple room, where I slept on the upper bunk for about 17000 yuan and my wife slept on the lower bunk for an extra 1000 yuan. This money is really worth it! The most important thing is zero shopping and zero self payment. I never went to a shopping store throughout the entire process, and the tour guide didn't even mention a specialty store. There's no need to be wary of sales, which is too much for us elderly people. And like going to Nalati Grassland, there is also a dedicated train passage arranged, so there is no need to queue up and change to a local bus. Meals are also all inclusive. On the train, there are stir fried boxed meals. There are also local special meals such as Roasted whole lamb and Buerjin cold water fish. My wife likes Turpan fruit feast best, which is fresh enough to taste sunshine. This room type is really the most cost-effective. You can compare it on the foot travel train and see that they explain the details of each room type very clearly.

yz_144392317Is the food on the train really included? Could it be a simple meal that deceives people?Comment
做我的王EXOAuthorReplyyz_144392317:Absolutely not. Each person on the Shifang special train has a breakfast of 20 yuan, including Congee, eggs, and steamed stuffed buns. The dinner of 40 yuan is a fried box lunch. Two meat dishes, two vegetables, and one soup are more abundant than those made at home. Not to mention the local cuisine, the stewed lamb in the 5 special dishes is so soft and tender that it melts in just a sip. Kashgar halal cuisine also comes with handmade naan, and we both eat CDs every time without any extra charge.Comment
