Silkroad by Train Tour

Silk Road by Train Tour (19 days /18 nights)

Follow the legendary Silk Road by train — a once-in-a-lifetime journey through Iran, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan.

Experience the magic of the ancient trade routes that once connected East and West. Today, comfortable modern trains make this journey smoother than Marco Polo could ever have imagined — yet the sense of discovery remains just as thrilling.

Your adventure begins in Isfahan, Iran’s most enchanting city, famous for its graceful mosques and blue-tiled domes. From there, you’ll cross the desert to the sacred city of Mashhad, before continuing into Turkmenistan. Explore the gleaming white capital Ashgabat and the ancient ruins of Merv, once one of the great cities of the Silk Road.

Next, modern high-speed trains carry you across Uzbekistan, from the timeless streets of Bukhara to the dazzling architecture of Samarkand and on to the cosmopolitan capital Tashkent. Finally, your journey stretches across the vast landscapes of Kazakhstan, ending in Almaty, framed by the snow-capped Tien Shan Mountains.

Every element of this itinerary can be fully customized to match your travel style and interests. Whether you want to extend your stay, add cultural experiences, or focus on photography or local cuisine, we’ll design your personal Silk Road journey — adventurous, comfortable, and uniquely yours.
