Great all round trip giving insights on culture, nature and history! Tatiana our guide was brilliant in every way!
Ashgabat To Tbilisi (26 Days) - September 2026
Starting in the heart of Asia you will feel as if you have almost returned to Europe. You will encounter friendly locals, a diverse and long history, a unique and varied culture, lively and cosmopolitan cities, and vast, stunning landscapes that range from arid desert to rugged mountains, with dense forests and snow-capped peaks as we reach the Caucus states of Armenia and Georgia.
Note: We have two options for our route on this trip, either travelling through Azerbaijan or through Iran to get from Turkmenistan to Georgia and Armenia. Which we take depends on whether Azerbaijan's land borders are open are not, the operating schedule and reliability of the Caspian Sea ferry, and the overall regional security situation. We will make a final decision on the route a few months before departure.

Those who do travel here are rewarded with breathtaking scenery from stunning snowy mountains to seemingly endless desert, ancient and medieval sites that rival and often outdo any found in Europe, and a wide array of eclectic cultures, with consistently friendly and welcoming locals.

The Silk Road of Uzbekistan - September 2026
4.8
This holiday was rated “full on” and it was. Not a moment was wasted! Tashkent, Khiva, Bukara and Samarkand were all amazing. Staying in a Madrasa and in a Yurt added to the authenticity and we took the extra trip to the desert castles which was well worth it. Also the silk paper making centre was interesting. Uzbekistan is a welcoming country - very clean with no litter and we were impressed with the flowers planted along grass verges for miles.

No words or photos can really do justice to this trip, but, to give you an idea, it went straight into my top 3 trips ever, alongside Zim/Bots/Namibia and Falklands/S Georgia/Antarctica, even though I has a bad case of travellers' tummy.

Uzbekistan by Bike - September 2026
A true adventure for those that want a unique biking experience. This guided cycling adventure takes you deep into the heart of Uzbekistan – from the legendary Silk Road cities of Samarkand and Bukhara, to the remote mountain villages and desert plains.
Over 10 days of supported cycling, you’ll cover up to 450km, pedalling on a mix of sealed roads, gravel tracks and rural dirt paths. The terrain is varied – with exhilarating descents, some short climbs, and quiet backroads that weave through mountain ridges, wide valleys and remote stone villages. You’ll be supported throughout by a backup vehicle and expert local crew, with a quality hybrid or mountain bike provided.
Cycle from the foothills of the Tian Shan and Turkestan ranges, spot Severtsov sheep, and swim in the turquoise waters of Lake Aydarkul, with nights spent in yurts, village homestays and small local hotels.
Out of the saddle, uncover centuries of cultural richness: from caravanserais and madrasahs to grand mosques and mausoleums. Explore the intricate tilework of Samarkand’s Registan, wander the old quarters of Bukhara, and step inside vibrant bazaars and citadels once ruled by kings and khans.
This is a true cultural journey on two wheels, led by local experts and built on decades of experience operating immersive adventure travel across Central Asia.

Walking in Kyrgyzstan - September 2026
4.8
A varied trip providing an excellent taster to Kyrgyzstan. Aisuluu our tour guide was passionate about their country and was keen to showcase the culture and scenery, all with a wonderful sense of humour.
The yurt camp experience was excellent and well worth bumping along the roads to get there. Food and beer were great too. A wonderful country that is worth a visit.

Fann Mountains Trek & Silk Road Cities - September 2026
4.4
The trek in the Fann Mountains was a stand out. I would do it again despite it pushing me to my limits at times. It was like stepping into a fantasy novel- the colours, the remoteness and to my eyes the strangeness as well as the mountainous glories. The guides, cooks, porters were very supportive and I felt safe at all times. The food was excellent- even though everyone managed to get sour stomachs- it was maybe the strangeness factor. Cultural visits also well curated.
