We made it over the border, the first couple of checkpoints were fine we showed our passports and were waved through by the Chinese. It wasn’t until we reached border control where they x-ray luggage and vehicles that we were questioned, “where is your tour agency?” I tried everything including using a Carnet. I tried lying and saying the agency was waiting for us in Kashgar. They tried phoning higher officials to get permission, but there was no way they would let us in without an escort and customs paperwork provided by the agency.
Me and my wife hold British passports and our Chinese visas are multiple entry 2 years.
