The cost of traveling to Yili at the end of December varies from person to person, but overall, the per capita cost may range from 2,500 to 6,000 yuan. This price range is mainly influenced by factors such as the travel itinerary, accommodation standards, dining choices, and whether to participate in special activities (such as skiing).?
Specifically, if you choose to travel by car and travel during the off-season, the per capita cost may be relatively low. For example, some travel guides mention a self-drive travel cost of 2,500 yuan per person, which includes transportation, accommodation, some meals, and tickets.?
However, if you choose a group tour or have higher standards for accommodation and dining, the cost may increase accordingly. The cost of some group tours may range from 3,000 to 5,000 yuan per person, or even higher, depending on the itinerary and the travel agency’s quotation.?
In addition, the end of December is winter in Yili. If you plan to engage in winter activities such as skiing, you also need to consider additional expenses such as ski tickets and ski equipment rental. For example, some travel guides mention skiing activities in the Kalajun and Nalati scenic areas, where ski tickets are free within a specific period, but other expenses (such as transportation, accommodation, dining, etc.) still need to be taken into account.?
Therefore, when planning a trip to Yili at the end of December, it is recommended to choose a suitable travel mode and itinerary based on your budget and schedule, and make a cost budget and plan in advance.?
