    It was an experience of a lifetime with the bus driver dodging various animals that approached our bus in all directions across the highway! Being an animal lover, I was happy not to witness any injured animals! We had very skilled, experienced drivers!

    It truly was an adventure, sometimes exhausting and hectic. But I?m so glad of being able to see so many places and experience so much in such a short span of time. Also I remember all of the good laughs we had with Farrukh and the group.

    I would like to know about Central Asia tours in summer of 2025, specifically from June 7 through July 12. I'm traveling with my wife and four children, aged 14, 12, 10, and 6 years old. I noticed that there is a minimum age requirement. How strict is the minimum age requirement?

      The youngest of our four children is 6 years old, and due to the inflexibility of your tours' age limitations, we will not be able to book any of your Central Asia tours.
