The Silk Road at Leisure
Tashkent · Khiva · Bukhara · Samarkand
Your journey
See the classic Silk Road without hurrying through it. Longer stays, shorter touring days, and free time make this a more restorative way to travel.
This is a suggested itinerary. Before booking, we’ll agree your daily pace, accommodation, transport, inclusions, and price with you.
Day-by-day itinerary
Days 1–3 · Tashkent
Arrive gently with a free first day, then discover the capital’s old neighbourhoods, applied arts, and extraordinary metro.
Days 4–6 · Khiva
Spend three nights close to Itchan Kala, leaving room for a quiet morning and an evening walk after the day visitors leave.
Days 7–10 · Bukhara
Explore Bukhara in shorter chapters, with time for courtyard tea, local crafts, and an unscheduled afternoon.
Days 11–14 · Samarkand
End among Samarkand’s Timurid monuments, using the extra night to balance guided visits with time of your own.
