[Special Notes on the Duku Highway] The Duku Highway is affected by seasonal weather and is only open from June to the end of September each year. Even during the open period, rain, snow or landslides may cause temporary road closures. During closure and control periods, we can only take a detour back; the additional vehicle costs, fuel costs and driver service fees are all borne by the travel agency, with no further charges to tourists and no refunds of any kind. Additional food and accommodation costs, train tickets or plane tickets incurred by tourists due to force majeure factors such as road closures must be borne by the tourists themselves. [Warm Tips] 1. The Duku Highway is a mountain road with fairly good conditions, but it has many curves and narrow sections and easily causes motion sickness, so please prepare motion sickness medicine in advance. 2. Stopping at will is not allowed on mountain roads; the driver will make appropriate photo stops at safe viewpoints. 3. The Duku Highway reaches altitudes of over 3,000 meters, so please prepare thick clothing in advance as temperatures drop. 4. Because the Duku Highway is subject to weather conditions, as a rule it is only passable from June to mid-September each year. In case of special weather, the local traffic control department will impose road closures to ensure safety. If the road is closed, the Duku Highway cannot be used and we can only take a detour back to Urumqi, which will increase both driving distance and time. Option 1: return along National Highway G218 via Hejing County. Option 2: if National Highway G218 is also closed, we can only return via the Narat and Yining direction, and it will be impossible to reach Urumqi that day. You may fly from Narat Airport, or leave the tour by plane or train in Yining. As road closures are force majeure factors, any train or plane ticket costs incurred must be borne by the tourists themselves; if you need to return by vehicle the next day, food and accommodation costs for that day are at the tourist's own expense.

After breakfast, airport transfer will be arranged according to flight time. Happy times always pass quickly, and the day has come for us to say goodbye. We hope this short trip to Xinjiang leaves you with beautiful memories, and we look forward to meeting you again~ 【Warm Tips】 1. Please confirm that your belongings are packed and carried completely to avoid causing yourself trouble due to omissions. 2. Guests with afternoon or evening flights, please complete check-out procedures before 14:00 Beijing time. Any additional charges incurred due to late check-out will be at your own expense (be sure to check your belongings again before leaving the hotel, and do not leave anything behind in the hotel).
