Known for their 14 to 24-day Silk Road Adventure tours, Uighur Tours are the local experts. Established in 2001, Uighur Tours consists of four experienced Chinese travel professionals who specialize organizing Silk Road tours, Trekking tours and climbing tours all over Xinjiang province as well as other parts of China. They pride themselves on their local knowledge, fun and social atmosphere, personal service and high standards. Experienced guides provide in-depth knowledge and a very local experience of Xinjiang and the Silk Road including its culture, life, people, history and nature. 

As locals from different parts of Xinjiang, they do their best to arrange your visit to experience as much of the local life and culture as possible. Their philosophy being that a traveler can only understand local life by visiting a local family and tasting the local foods of each different ethnic group in Xinjiang. 

In addition to group tours, their travel experts will design a personalized tour itinerary to perfectly fit your needs and interests.

They offer 18-25+ day treks on K2, via 4WD or Van, & camels, in Kashgar, Xinjiang. K2 is the second highest mountain in the world and, needless to say, offers some excellent trekking. Uighur will make all necessary arrangements for those wanting to trek through the surrounding mountains to K2 Base Camp on the Chinese side. They will also arrange climbing expeditions for K2 ascents. 

They also offer a 5-day trekking tour around Muztagh Ata. Strung throughout the Pamirs, the Karakorum Highway (KKH) is both an international hub and lifeline to a handful of Krygrz and Tajik communities settled along it. Muztagh Ata is the mysterious, magical center of it all.

For something different, they even offer 3-Day Taklamakan Desert Camel Trekking tours. Enjoy beautiful high sand dunes during the trek, then camp overnight in tents under the stars. Guides prepare desert kebabs for dinner, as shooting stars light up the night sky and the surrounding desert.
