Located in the heart of Central Asia, Uzbekistan has played a key role for over a millennium in what has been the greatest trade route of all time: the Great Silk Road.

Khiva, Bukhara, Tashkent and most of all Samarkand, the epic cities of the oases along the route, evoke romantic emotions mixed with the desire to trace the routes of the caravans of explorers, adventurers and merchants who for centuries traded European goods for those of Asia.

Uzbekistan boasts a cultural heritage of about 2500 years that flourishes not only in trade but also as the largest medieval intellectual centre in the Muslim world.

Many important historical figures crossed this land, including Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan and Marco Polo among others.

A tailor-made trip to Uzbekistan is an exciting and unforgettable experience, retracing the routes of explorers from the past centuries.
