About the trip
This escorted tour with G Adventures navigates the Silk Road's rich heritage across Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. The route begins in Uzbekistan's Samarkand, where the rhythm of daily life intersects with the ghost of the past at the Afrasiab Museum, guided by an archaeologist. Sampling plov cooked by a local family adds a hands-on flavour to the experience.
