I am 79 years old solo traveler. I want travel to Xinjiang tours. Please advise on which Xinjiang tour can a 79 year old can go solo.

For the safety and comfort of our guests, travelers aged 75 or above are required to travel with a friend or family member. Therefore, unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate a 79-year-old traveler traveling alone on our small group tours. However, we would be happy to arrange a private tour for you, which would allow us to tailor the itinerary, pace, transportation, and sightseeing arrangements to your needs and make the journey more comfortable for you as a solo traveler. The main difference is that, for one person, the cost of a private tour would be approximately more than twice the price of the small group tour, as the private vehicle, guide, and other services would be arranged exclusively for you.

The only reason I have 4 stars, was due to the disgusting hotel, you provided in Guilin. It was dirty, also infested with cockroache, and I’m pretty sure they were rats, that the owner disposed, whilst we were having our dinner, hence I booked myself into a nearby hotel called Vienna. I think for future reference, you do not use The River Lodge in Guangzi. It fid spoil my holiday a little, considering all the other hotels you provided were good!Show more
