Ten-day Silk Road Nomad offers Altyn-Arashan’s hot springs or Sary-Jaz before the Uzbekistan cities of Tashkent, Samarkand and Bukhara. The 18-day Off-Road Adventure includes Altyn-Arashan, Song-Kol, Tash Rabat and seasonal Kel-Suu before Mangystau. The 38-day Five Stans Adventure also visits Altyn-Arashan and Song-Kol, then continues to the Pamirs, Wakhan Valley, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, southern Kazakhstan and Mangystau. Pamir Highway journeys are planned separately on request, with the route and duration agreed for your dates.

Mountain access, connections and advance planning

Choose dates around the most seasonal part of your route. The full Kel-Suu programme normally operates from late May through September, subject to access; omitting that day shortens the 18-day tour to 17 days. High-altitude stops and yurt stays on other routes also depend on weather and the confirmed accommodation plan. Train seats, flights and border formalities affect the schedule. The Five Stans programme asks travellers to book and begin document preparation at least one month before departure; flights, visas and Pamir permits are paid separately. Confirm the final itinerary and exclusions before booking.
