- Best of Silk Road 10Days: Beijing, Xian, Dunhuang, Turpan, Urumqi and Kashgar
This tour was an incredible journey and a very good introduction to the complex history of China, the beauty of the vast landscape and the intricacies of Chinese philosophy. With the exception of Kashgar every city was absolutely worth it! The people of these cities were kind, respectful and generous, the guides passionate, knowledgeable and caring and the drivers prompt and professional. They were excellent at recommending the best places to eat, things to do, places to see, respecting my additional need, translating my words to the locals and vice versa and protecting/keeping me safe at all times. The hotels were all tidy, clean (with the exception of Kashgar) and conveniently located in terms of their proximity to local attractions to visit in your spare time and shops/restaurants. Further SilkRoads do an excellent job in organising your trip making it hassle free. All the tickets, transport, VISA requirements, and hotels are organised by them. Plus you have 24/7 contact with them during your trip for any queries you may have. All in all a wonderful trip. I just wish that I had an extra day in the middle of the trip in X’ian/Dunhuang and switch the day in Kashgar to an extra day in Urumqi so that one could enjoy some extra hikes, hots springs (in X’ian) and some rides (camel, horse and bike) in these beautiful locations. Thanks a lot to the SilkRoad team for a memorable experience!
- Uzbekistan Cultural Tour (Tashkent to Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva) boutique hotels option
The tour is a step into a magical world. It’s a very well organised tour with excellent guides. I had different ones for each city and they were all fantastic. All of them had so much information to share and I loved the inside into their lives. Each city has their own character. Samarkand has magnificent sights in different parts of the city. The hotel roof terrace overlooks Registan Square. Bukhara has a compact old city complete with trading domes. A marvel. In Khiva you stay inside the old town and soak up the atmosphere. Everywhere felt safe to walk around. Uzbeks are so friendly and delighted to see tourists. They make the world feel like a nicer place. I loved the food. The national is Plov which is delicious comfort food. It’s worth trying all the classic dishes. A shout out to the fried egg plant salad. €12 buys a fantastic meal. Visit Uzbekistan I cannot recommend it highly enough.
- Central Asia Tour 16 Days, Start in Almaty
Well organised and guides very informative. It would be a good idea to have the drivers and guides name and phone numbers (essential to get through immigration in Tukmenistan)
