点评:We just came back from a 13D Northern Xinjiang tour with Silk Road Travel. There were 5 adults and 2 kids in our group. Chandler was the friendly staff who was liaising with us. He was very prompt and helpful and catered to our travel needs.
We loved our Chinese speaking guide, Xiaoping. She is very knowledgeable. She shared with us in details about the history, culture and food of Xinjiang.
Xiaoping always provided information on the available facilities at the hotels before each stay and this was useful. The plans for each day was also clearly communicated to us. She was also generous and would buy us local fruits and snacks like grapes, peaches, dates, and even mooncakes (we were there during Mid Autumn Festival). She even let us use her Meituan app to order food as we had issues with the app on our phone.
And as we had 2 little ones travelling with us, our guide would proactively entertained the kiddos when we were preoccupied. Her genuine nature and sense of humour was greatly appreciated. 🙏🏽
Our driver, Shidike, was also very friendly, humorous and helpful. He was always on standby to help us with our luggage. He also offered recommendations to where we could enjoy authentic and delicious local cuisine. We had a wonderful time in Xinjiang with the help of everyone mentioned above.
The hotels we stayed at were generally good and comfortable. We noticed that there were some changes in the hotels where we were going to stay, but it's not a major issue, as we know the agency was trying to get us better hotels. But perhaps it would be good to keep us updated us in advance about the changes. :)
Overall we had a wonderful time in Northern Xinjiang!
翻译:我们刚从丝绸之路旅行社的13天北疆之旅回来。我们团里有5个大人和2个小孩。Chandler是一位友善的员工,负责与我们联络。他非常及时、乐于助人,并且满足了我们的旅行需求。
我们非常喜欢我们的中文导游小萍。她知识渊博,详细地向我们介绍了新疆的历史、文化和美食。
小萍每次入住前都会提供酒店设施的信息,这很有帮助。她也清楚地告知了我们每天的行程安排。她也很慷慨,会给我们买当地的水果和小吃,比如葡萄、桃子、枣子,甚至还有月饼(我们去的时候正值中秋节)。她甚至允许我们使用她的美团App订餐,因为我们的手机App无法使用。
因为我们带着两个小孩一起旅行,所以导游总是在我们心不在焉的时候主动陪伴孩子们。她真诚的性格和幽默感让我们非常感激。 🙏🏽
我们的司机什迪克也非常友好、幽默、乐于助人。他随时待命帮我们搬运行李,还推荐了可以品尝正宗美味的当地美食的地方。在以上各位的帮助下,我们在新疆度过了一段美好的时光。
我们住的酒店总体来说都很不错,也很舒适。我们注意到我们计划入住的酒店有一些变化,但这不是什么大问题,因为我们知道旅行社正在努力帮我们找到更好的酒店。不过,如果能提前告知我们这些变化会更好。:)
总的来说,我们在北疆度过了一段美好的时光!
