This incredible journey will take you through the five “Stans” of Central Asia, across mountains and steppes, treading in the footsteps of those who travelled the ancient Silk Road with their caravans winding trails through deserts, exchanging their wares, ideas and people which has led to the extraordinary melting pot of cultures that exists in the region today.
“Sundowners Overland takes you on a journey of discovery - a discovery of far flung places, different people, different landscapes and vastly different cultures. It's a journey of discovery - it's for those who want to really engage with people and places outside our normal comfort zone. With Sundowners Overland our horizons are widened and we experience new adventures.” Yvonne Koster, Australia
"An exhilarating tour taking in five countries in less than five weeks but giving a real opportunity to get a feeling of each one. Stunning scenery, welcoming people, fascinating historical buildings and evidence everywhere of the Silk Roads and how they have shaped the region. These are countries not to be missed." David Wasley, UK
Please note that while we will endeavour to operate this journey to all five stans, should this not be possible due to local border closures an alternative itinerary will be provided.
