26 Days Central Asia Tour - Long trip but worth our time

An adventure covering the '5 Stans.' Kyrgyzstan was the highlight for nature; the yurt stay at Son Kul Lake was peaceful and stunning. Uzbekistan offered the best architecture and hotels and good for night hunting. Tajikistan had incredible mountain drives, though the roads were rough. Relax by the lake is very peaceful. Kazakhstan’s Almaty felt surprisingly modern. We all like the red canyon hiking. Took great photos here. While, the border crossing took time, requiring us to walk with luggage. It’s a grueling trip with long travel days, but absolutely the best way to see the diversity of the Silk Road in one go.

Turkmenistan Tour to the Hell of the Door & Camp here

A truly surreal experience. Ashgabat is bizarre with its empty white marble streets and strict rules, but fascinating to see. The highlight was obviously the Darvaza Gas Crater. The drive across the desert was bumpy and long, but arriving at the 'Gates of Hell' at night was spectacular. Sleeping in a yurt nearby was cold but worth it for the view. Be prepared for very basic toilets in the desert, but our guide handled the logistics perfectly.

8 Days Uzbekistan Tour - Full of Domes!

Our uzbekitan tour was a magnificent dive into history. Samarkand’s Registan Square is even more breathtaking than in photos; the blue tiles are amazing. Bukhara was my favorite, though - wandering the old streets felt like time travel, and the Kalon Minaret at sunset is unforgettable. Khiva is beautiful but feels a bit like a museum. The high-speed train between cities was very comfortable and punctual. As for the is food, while delicious, gets repetitive (lots of Plov and meat) after a week
