Tour Overview
Note: Embark on one of the most dramatic road journeys on Earth — the Pamir Highway (M41). This ancient Silk Road route takes you across Kyrgyzstan’s alpine passes, Tajikistan’s remote Pamir Mountains, and into the heart of Central Asian culture. From bustling Bishkek to serene alpine lakes, high-altitude villages, rugged cliffs, and moon-like landscapes, this is more than a road trip — it’s a soul-awakening expedition through one of the last wild regions of the world.
