The ‘cradle of culture’ – Central Asia is a fairytale mixture of Eastern and Western culture, architecture and cuisine. A must see destination for those interested in culture and history.
Why is Central Asia the Perfect Destination for Outdoor and Adventure Lovers?
Central Asia is a delight to the adventurous traveller. Wilderness and high mountains allow intrepid travellers to truly get off the beaten track – hiking, biking and riding, learning about nomad culture and eco-tourism, and for the ultimate road trip visiting remote mountain villages along the world-famous ‘roof of the world’ Pamir Highway.
And for those looking for a truly off the beaten path adventure, Turkmenistan offers lost great cities, rare horses and a culture which is still far off the mainstream tourism trail

Sightseeing
Tourism is travel for pleasure or business; also the theory and practice of touring, the business of attracting, accommodating, and entertaining tourists, and the business of operating tours. Tourism may be international, or within the traveller’s country. The World Tourism Organization defines tourism more generally, in terms which go “beyond the common perception of tourism as being limited to holiday activity only”, as people “traveling to and staying in places outside their usual environment for not more than one consecutive year for leisure, business and other purposes”.
