Central Asia

The 5 ‘Stans of Central Asia: Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan are an underappreciated world of their own. This region is home to a little bit of everything. Friendly and diverse locals, tasty food, Islamic architecture, and alpine national parks are just the beginning of what makes these five countries a must for any traveller.

Our tour will take you to all the highlights of these countries. Prepare to see the ‘Gates of Hell’ Darvaza gas crater in Turkmenistan, tour the historic city of Samarkand in Uzbekistan, roam the Hisor Fortress in Tajikistan, pass huge mountains, canyons, and endless trees on a drive to Kyrgyzstan’s capital Bishkek, and explore Almaty, the cultural heart of Kazakhstan.

These destinations are just a taste of what you will experience on our Central Asia trip. If a two-week journey isn’t enough for you, we run a twenty-day summer tour that dives even deeper into this fascinating region. Join us on your next Central Asian adventure today!
