It is relatively easy to find tour guides during the peak tourist season in Xinjiang, but there may be localized shortages.?
The peak tourist season in Xinjiang mainly concentrates in summer, especially in July and August. During this time, the weather in Xinjiang is warm and pleasant, and various attractions are in their best condition, attracting thousands of tourists to flood into Xinjiang. Therefore, during the peak tourist season, the demand for tour guides in Xinjiang will be very high.?
At the same time, due to the continued prosperity of the tourism market and the increase in the number of applicants for the tour guide qualification exam, the number of tour guides is also relatively increasing, especially in some popular tourist areas such as Kashgar, where tour guide services are available for tourists to choose from.?
However, it should also be noted that there is an uneven distribution of tour guide professionals. Although the total number of tour guides is increasing, there is still a lack of foreign language-speaking tour guides. In some specific areas or during specific time periods, such as at certain popular attractions in Xinjiang during the peak tourist season, there may be a situation where the demand for tour guides outstrips the supply.?
In addition, some senior tour guides may choose to reduce the number of tours they lead due to increased service fees and heavy workload during the peak season, which may also lead to a shortage of tour guide resources.?
In summary, although it is relatively easy to find tour guides during the peak tourist season in Xinjiang, tourists should still book guide services in advance when planning their trips to ensure the smooth progress of their journeys.?
