The disadvantages of taking a special train tour of Xinjiang mainly include poor accommodation experience, low degree of freedom, higher costs, simple facilities, and potential service issues.?
Poor accommodation experience:?
In terms of train accommodations, there may be issues such as long waiting times for security checks, narrow carriage space, and uncomfortable beds.?
Hotel accommodations may also be unsatisfactory, such as late arrival at the hotel and early morning assembly times, affecting the quality of rest.?
Low degree of freedom:?
The itinerary of special train tours is usually fixed, and tourists may not be able to freely arrange their itinerary according to their preferences and time, lacking flexibility.?
Higher costs:?
Since special train tours provide high-quality services (although actual experiences may vary from person to person), the cost is relatively high, which may not be suitable for tourists with limited budgets.?
Simple facilities:?
The facilities in the train carriages of the tourist special train may be relatively simple, such as basic washbasins, squat toilets, and boiling water supply, which may not meet the expectations of some tourists.?
Potential service issues:?
The tour guide service may be poor, with issues such as misleading tourists, mandatory spending, or poor service attitude.?
The charging facilities on the train are unstable, and the signal may also be average, causing inconvenience to tourists.?
In addition, for middle-aged and elderly tourists, since special trains from various parts of the country cannot enter Xinjiang, and there is a shortage of supply of Xinjiang-based special trains, booking tickets may be difficult; at the same time, the journey on Xinjiang-based special trains is arduous, which may deter older tourists.?
. These issues are also potential drawbacks that need to be considered when taking a special train tour of Xinjiang.?
