Highly recommend the RV tour I joined for my solo trip to Xinjiang with my kid!

After much research, I realized driving myself around Xinjiang alone with a child was out of the question—safety first for us moms. Private cars were too expensive, and carpooling groups were mostly young travelers with different interests. After careful consideration, I decided to try an RV tour.

I discovered these tours typically include 3-7 families, and the best part? Kids get playmates! 🥰 Imagine how amazing it is—8 days of travel with little companions to play with, plus a tour leader organizing fun activities and games. Finally, this mom could relax and enjoy the scenery hands-free!

Here’s the inside scoop on the tour experience:
• Each family gets their own RV with a dedicated driver/butler. No rushing—play to your heart’s content at each scenic spot, rest in the RV when tired, and no more bathroom emergencies thanks to the onboard toilet!
• The RV has a fridge—nothing beats an ice-cold drink in summer 😎! Xinjiang’s watermelons are huge, sweet, and cheap. Chill them in the fridge for the perfect thirst-quencher—just like home!
• The tour leader and driver were great with kids, organizing group games. With multiple families’ children playing together, us adults could truly unwind and soak in the views!
• Xinjiang’s attractions are stunning but vast. Going solo, you might miss hidden gems. The leader guided us to the best spots for fun and photos—super thoughtful!
