Itinerary

The Silk Road doesn't give up its secrets easily — and twelve days is just enough time to earn them. Start in Ashgabat's bizarrely beautiful marble city before the Karakum Desert pulls you toward the blazing Darvaza Crater. Uzbekistan's legendary trio follows (Khiva, Bukhara, Samarkand — yes, all three), then Tajikistan's mountain lakes deliver a finale that'll stop you cold.

day 1Ashgabat

Welcome to Turkmenistan, a land of striking contrasts and fascinating history! Take a moment to settle in, refresh, and soak in the unique energy of the city. This afternoon, embark on a guided tour of Ashgabat, where modern grandeur meets ancient heritage. Marvel at the city’s gleaming marble architecture, explore bustling markets, and glimpse iconic landmarks that reflect Turkmenistan’s rich culture and history. Consider this your introduction to the Silk Road’s enduring legacy and the adventures that lie ahead.

The process from finding the tour we wanted to take to getting set up for the tour was an easy process. The other reviews we saw gave us the security of using their website to book our trip. The only item we missed which would have given a 5* was the trip did not include see the Alps up close or a train trip. Well maybe next time there may be one and we would definitely take that trip.
