Planning Your Cruise Adventure

When planning your cruise to Asia’s captivating destinations, consider factors such as travel season, duration of the cruise, onboard amenities, and shore excursions offered. Research different cruise lines that cater to your preferences and budget.

It’s also important to take into account visa requirements for each country you plan to visit during your cruise. Some countries may require visas in advance while others offer visa-on-arrival services.

In conclusion, embarking on a cruise to Asia’s captivating destinations is an adventure like no other. Whether you’re seeking vibrant cities or serene landscapes, Southeast Asia, East Asia, and South Asia offer a plethora of options to satisfy your wanderlust.

Central Asia Travel Guide

Discover Historical and Cultural Heritage of Countries in Central Asia

Central Asia today consist of five independent republics, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Tajikistan. From its beginning in 1917, the Soviet state never included Kazakhstan in Muslim Central Asia, preferring to give it a non-Asian identity by linking it closely to Russia and Siberia. Today, however, the Kazakhs themselves and the world at large believe they are very much part of the region. Central Asia covers an area of 3,994,300 square kilometers which includes some of the most sparsely populated regions in the world. Its population of only 51 million people includes more than 100 different ethnic groups, from Germans and Austrians to Tibetans and Koreans. The largest ethnic group is the Uzbeks. Uzbekistan has a population of more than 30 million, and Uzbeks from substantial minorities in all other four republics.  

Tashkent and Ashgabat, the capitals of Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan, have long urban histories but the other three capital cities, Dushanbe in Tajikistan, Almaty in Kazakhstan and Bishkek in Kyrgyzstan, were created by the Bolsheviks to give a sense of ethnic identity to those nationalities. Uzbekistan contains all the most famous historical cities of Central Asia: Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva and Kokand. There were the seats of nomadic empires and settled kingdoms in the past, as well as being centers in the development of Islam throughout the region. For centuries the hundreds of madrasahs, or Islamic colleges in Bukhara and Samarkand attracted students from as far away as Marocco and Indonesia. Bukhara is seen by many Muslims as a place of pilgrimage and the most important city in Islam after Mecca, Medina and Jerusalem. Central Asia was also the birthplace of Sufism, the mystical trend in Islam which spread rapidly to Africa and Asia.

Discover this diverse and rich region for yourself on one of our tours. Book your Central Asia travel experience to explore one country in depth, or visit all five Stans to get a fuller understanding of each country. No matter your choice, travel in Central Asia will leave you with unforgettable memories of an under-explored region!

Central Asia Travel Destinations

Main part of Central Asia travel is through Uzbekistan, which is located in the very heart of Central Asia: once crossed by caravan routes, including the famous Great Silk Road. Uzbekistan is, first of all, the country of historical and cultural tourism. It is the place of concentration of the precious Eastern Gems such as Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva,Tashkent and Shakhrisabz that contain most beautiful masterpieces of Central Asia. More on Uzbekistan

Kazakhstan is the largest and economically developed country in Central Asia. National traditions and culture of the Kazaks can be attributed to the nomadic past of their ancestors, who were roaming by whole tribes from one place to another in horizonless Kazak steppes. An interesting image of modern Kazakhstan is the result of interaction of Russian and Islamic influence, oriental mentality and modern trends of globalization. More on Kazakhstan

Perhaps none of the Central Asian travel destinations can boast with such abundance of picturesque natural places as Kyrgyzstan. Over three-quarter of its territory is occupied by majestic mountains of Tien-Shan and Pamir Alay. Eye-pleasing succulent green plains, which, for centuries, have been serving as live-stock pastures to local nomads, and offering a tired traveler rest, lakes and crystal clear torrents, charming mysterious gorges and caves, quaintly cut by time and foul weather. Kyrgyzstan is still strong with its national traditions and nomadic customs, which have been formed for centuries. More on Kyrgyzstan

Tajikistan is the only Iranian-speaking state in Central Asia with its unique culture and traditions. This beautiful country with severe climate, situated in picturesque foothills of Pamir is located far from Eurasian transport routes. Modern Tajikistan has been formed under the influence of ancient customs of the Iranians, Persians, Islam, neighboring Uzbekistan and Soviet Russia. The major part of the population occupies the northern even lands of Tajikistan. It is the place where two largest and most developed cities - Dushanbe and Khujand are located. More on Tajikistan

Turkmenistan

Turkmenistan is the country, which had famous settlements of great dynasties of the past that unfortunately were mainly destroyed by conquerors or by severe nature. A special pride of the Turkmen is the country’s capital – Ashgabat, which is unique from architectural point of view, blazing and sparkling day and night in the middle of desert as a symbol of Modern Turkmenistan. Central Asia travel can be marked as completed when you visit Turkmenistan. More on Turkmenistan

Central Asia in a nutshell

Central Asia was under the Russian or Soviet rule for about 100 hundred years, some parts even for a longer period, meaning that travelers can make more use of Russian than English, especially in the rural areas. Before the influence of Russian culture, the area was under the rule of different Islamic Khanates and throughout the history Central Asia has been conquered by many different types of civilizations from Greek to Persian and Chinese influence. Frequent changes in the governance in the region have created a melting pot of different cultures that can still be seen today as many of the  Soviet drawn  borders do not follow the ethnicity of people.

Central Asia's golden era

Central Asia’s golden era  was during the dark middle ages of Europe when the science and culture flourished in the region and the Silk road commerce brought wealth to the area. The region gave birth to a remarkable amount historic figures who gave their contribution to the development of mathematics, astronomy, literature, linguistics, political science and architecture. Also religion was significantly developed in the region as several of them coexisted in the area at the same time: Zoroastrianism (fire worshipping), Greek polytheism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam all had their supporters. Now Central Asia is mostly dominated by secular Islam but after independence from the Soviet Union where religion was not allowed, Islam has started to gain more foothold again.

Central Asian nature and landscapes

Central Asian nature and landscape are dominated by high mountains and deserts, steppes with several great rivers (and thousands of small ones) that give life to the  otherwise  mostly arid regions. The mountain nature with pristine lakes and unique valleys are waiting for the hikers to explore all their secrets. Ancient settlements and fortresses can be found abundantly and the people are welcoming and hospitable towards tourists and eager to show their beautiful countries. The quality of infrastructure varies a lot but the lack of it is a part of the experience for the ones who wish to explore deeper. As a conclusion it can be said that Central Asia is a fairly unknown but an easily accessed and extremely rich area to be explored by the ones who want to step off the beaten path.

Why Visit Central Asia

Central Asia has been the melting pot of different cultures for thousands of years and has developed its own culture with differences between the Stans. If you enjoy ancient cities and marvelous mountainous nature, Central Asia is a must visit for you.

• Experience: Ancient silk road cities, nomad lifestyle, pristine nature, mountain & desert adventures and scenery.

Testimonials

"We had the best time on our trip and will treasure our memories for years to come. We are extremely well-traveled and yet Central Asia still provided wonders, beauty, warmth and excitement not found elsewhere."

We had a fabulous tour of Central Asia - Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. We were very lucky to have Kalpak Travel as our tour company which exceeded our expectations with flying colours. We highly recommend Kalpak Travel if you are planning a hassle-free tour of Central Asia.

We had a wonderful 3.5 week trip through the 5 Stans. I feel like I've seen the highlights in case I don't get the opportunity to return, but I most certainly DO want to return and see more. These are the warmest and most welcoming people I have every encountered.

My trip with Kalpak to Central Asia was phenomenal. It far exceeded my expectations. Everything was top quality including the accommodations, food, sights, itinerary and outstanding guides in each country. It was an excellent quality tour for the money. Great quality value. I would highly recommend the trip to anyone considering going. Central Asia is the best kept secret that one doesn’t hear much about. Kalpak is outstanding.
