About the trip

This G Adventures tour wends its way through Central Asia's Silk Road heritage across Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. It starts in Tashkent, where you'll get to wander streets reflecting a blend of Soviet influence and Islamic tradition before stepping into Khiva’s ancient city, with its tiled archways and minarets still guarding centuries-old stories.

From there, you visit Bukhara and Samarkand, cities peppered with medressas and bazaars that carry echoes of caravans past. The pace balances historic urban exploration with time for solitary moments in markets or amid architecturally arresting courtyards. The journey shifts to Tajikistan, where the terrain turns from city stone to rugged countryside, offering a chance to hike among six of the seven Marguzor Lakes, set against mountains quieter than the stories sung along the Silk Road.

Throughout, transport includes trains, private vehicles and walking, all designed to let you encounter these places with enough breathing space to appreciate their layers. Accommodations range from guesthouses to hostels, modest yet practical spots reflecting local character. The small group setting encourages shared insights without losing your personal rhythm.
