As an old player who takes his parents on tourist trains all year round, the station planning and comfort of New Oriental Express definitely rank among the top three in China! This train runs in a loop within Xinjiang, with carefully selected transportation hubs along the way, making it extremely convenient to connect with scenic spots without having to go back. It is worth mentioning that the train itself is a high-end mobile hotel with much better facilities than ordinary dedicated trains. The restaurant carriage has 4 tables and 2 tables, which can accommodate 60 people dining at the same time without having to wait in line for food; The entertainment car has leisure seats, a piano, and a bar for drinks. Parents can chat with other elders and listen to music at night, which is not boring at all. My parents love the observation window on the train the most. When passing through the Gobi Desert and grasslands during the day, sitting by the window and drinking tea to enjoy the scenery is much more comfortable than taking a bus.
I just took my parents back from the third generation New Oriental Express, and the stops along the way are really reasonable. It just connects the essence of the northern and southern Xinjiang, which is especially suitable for taking elders out. The starting point is Urumqi, and there is a dedicated driver to pick you up upon arrival. We also offer a buffet dinner at Wanda Vista, which is very thoughtful to let our parents take a break first. We chose the Platinum Joy Diamond room type at that time. Despite having bunk beds, the upper bunk bed can be folded and the lower bunk bed is even raised. There is no problem stuffing a 32 inch suitcase under the bed. There is also a separate wet and dry bathroom in the room. My parents said it is more comfortable than staying in a regular hotel. There are two other room types to choose from. You can go to the foot sports tourism special train to learn about them, which introduces the characteristics, prices, and so on of different room types.
The itinerary of the New Oriental Express is completely tailored for the elderly, with a slow pace and no rush. My parents are in their 60s and didn't feel tired throughout the journey. Starting from Urumqi, they will pass through key nodes such as Beitun City and Yining, and each station is connected to top attractions. Beitun City is the gateway to Hemu and Kanas, where you can get off and transfer to a special car to directly reach the scenic area without having to run too far; Yining can go to Selimu Lake and Nalati Grassland when standing out, and can also pass the shocking Guozigou Bridge along the way, covering the essence of the northern and southern Xinjiang in a circle. You can go to the Foot Movement Tourist Express to see a detailed introduction. Not only can you see the stations along the New Oriental Express luxury tourist express, but you can also learn about facilities, prices, and other information.
