2022 Tour Announcement

THE SILK ROAD IN UZBEKISTAN & TAJIKISTAN
Friday 21st October – Tuesday 8th November 2022 

 The Silk Road stretched from the Middle East to China and along which lie the famous cities of Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva.  This was the trade artery through which the great civilisations of the East and West exchanged not only produce, but also cultural ideas.  Peoples, rulers and cultures have swept across the region’s steppes, deserts and mountains for thousands of years.

 ‘From the blue-tiled splendour of Tamerlane’s Samarkand to the holy city of Bukhara, boasting a mosque for each day of the year, and beyond, Uzbekistan lays claim to a breathtaking architectural legacy.   Bound by sand and snow, fed by the melt-water from the Roof of the World, these fertile oases attracted the greatest travellers and conquerors in history, along the fragile threads of the Silk Road.’ 

Visiting Tashkent, Fergana, Rishtan, Kokand, Penjikent, Samarkand, Gidjuvan, Bukhara and across the Kyzyl Kum desert to Khiva and Nukus

 LANDPRICE including an internal flight:  approx. £2,550
INTERNATIONAL RETURN FLIGHT TO TASHKENT:  TBA
SINGLE ROOM SUPPLEMENT:  £275
