Embark on an unforgettable 37-day adventure from Bishkek to Ashgabat, traversing the historic Silk Road and the breathtaking landscapes of Kyrgyzstan. This overland journey takes you through five countries—Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan—offering a rich tapestry of experiences. Feel the heat of the Darwaza Gas Crater, explore ancient cities like Khiva, Bukhara, and Samarkand, and soak in the vibrant atmosphere of oriental bazaars and majestic fortresses in Dushanbe.

This adventure tour combines cultural immersion, historical exploration, and the rugged beauty of Central Asia, all from the comfort of a purpose-built expedition truck.
  • Feel the intense heat coming from the Darwaza Gas Crater
  • See ships marooned in the desert at the Aral Sea
  • Explore the ancient medressas, mausoleums and mosques in Khiva, Bukhara and Samarkand
  • Soak in the atmosphere of colourful oriental bazaars and majestic fortresses in Dushanbe
  • Stunning journey through Tajikistan over its High Peaks and Alpine Lakes

  • Visit the oldest bazaar in Central Asia in the city of Osh
  • Overnight stay in a Traditional yurt at Lake Song Kol
Accommodation is split throughout this trip between simple hotels and hostels and camping. The variety of accommodation provided is great and often a totally unique experience, including bush camps with no facilities, yurts and simple village pensions. Some are well managed and some very basic. Oasis uses roomy three-person tents but only for two people. They are specially made for us to meet the tougher conditions of an expedition trip and have mosquito netting sewn into the door and windows. It would also be a good idea to bring your own freestanding mosquito net so as to give you the freedom of sleeping under the stars at night. At bush camps you will be living off the truck, so there will be no showers or en-suite facilities, so digging your own toilet pit with the shovels supplied is essential!
