Uzbekistan, a country steeped in the history of the Silk Road, offers travelers a chance to explore an array of ancient cities, monumental Islamic architecture, and diverse landscapes ranging from deserts to mountains on an 11-day guided tour through Central Asia.

From Khiva, travelers cross the vast Kyzyl-Kum desert en route to the historic city of Bukhara. There, an itinerary of guided tours includes visits to key sites such as the Bakhautdin Naqshband Mausoleum and the Sitorai Mokhi-Khosa palace complex.

The tour continues to Shahrisabz, a city historically linked to figures like Amir Timur and Alexander the Great, featuring the ruins of the Ak-Saray Palace, before heading to Samarkand. Known as a jewel of the Timurid Empire, Samarkand presents visitors with architectural marvels including the three madrasahs of Registan Square.

Travelers then take a high-speed train to Tashkent, the capital city, blending old and new Uzbekistan. The program includes a visit to the Khazrati Imam complex, a significant Islamic site, and the bustling Chorsu Bazaar, known for its Silk Road trading heritage. A tour of the city’s developing modern districts along Broadway Street introduces visitors to "New Tashkent," a symbol of rapid urban growth. Optional excursions offer the chance to explore the nearby Chimgan Mountains, including panoramic views via cable car and opportunities to witness the region’s natural environment.
