Uzbekistan & Turkmenistan Discoverer


Discover a mystical side of Central Asia that rarely features in the minds of travellers. Journey back to the days of the Great Silk Road with the medieval cities, stunning architecture and colourful history of Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. Begin in modern, cosmopolitan Tashkent and voyage out into the deserts to uncover 2000-year-old fortress cities lost in the sands of time. Stand awestruck, as Genghis Khan once did, in front of Bukhara s Kalyan Minaret, gaze upon Samarkand s mighty Registan Ensemble, and camp at desert oases as Silk Road travellers have done for centuries. Contrast the older, slower Turkmenistan � one of medieval ruins, black-sand deserts, prehistoric towns, old Silk Road haunts, nomadic remnants and humble, hospitable locals � with the marbled metropolis of Ashgabat in destinations of immense spiritual and historical depth.
