We have a group of 6 people that will be needing transportation from Kashgar Airport to our hotel, Radisson Blu Kashgar. What is the best way to get there? Are taxis easy to ger - if so, how much is typical fare? Or is there way to schedule private transportation that will meet us upon arrival?
Traveling from Kashgar Airport to the Radisson Blu Kashgar is fairly straightforward, especially with a group of six. The airport is not very far from the city center, so you have several options for transport.
Taxis are commonly available outside the arrivals hall. For a group of six, you may need two taxis depending on luggage, as standard taxis in Kashgar typically seat 4 passengers comfortably. It is easy to find taxis, especially during the day. Typical fares from Kashgar Airport to the city center range from 30 to 50 CNY per taxi, but it’s recommended to confirm the fare with the driver before starting your journey. Many drivers do not use meters, so agreeing on a price upfront is important.
If you prefer a more convenient option, arranging private transportation in advance is possible:
Overall, for a group of six, the simplest and most stress-free option is to arrange a hotel transfer or a private car. If you prefer taxis, have small bills ready and confirm the fare with the driver. Travel time from the airport to the Radisson Blu Kashgar is typically 20-30 minutes depending on traffic.
