Memorable parts? Walking in the Kyrgyz mountains. Tips? Be prepared to be flexible, pack light. Local benefits? Interaction with local people was good. Difficult to evaluate environmental impact. Use of personal water bottles is a good idea, but drinking water is mainly supplied in single use plastic bottles. Conservation is probably supported only by the fact that as tourists you bring much needed dollars into the country. Overall rating? Very good, a great way to... (more)Ges Payne

Memorable parts? We did. Trek over Ton Prival pass, approximately 4,100m high, through the snow, for 9 hours. It was an exhilarating day, with the most amazing views. The view from the top was great, but every corner on the way it just got better and better. That was a definite highlight! Tips? Have as much time as you can to spare.

I came away from this journey impressed with the generosity and profound life spirit of the local guides, van drivers and inhabitants that I was privileged to encounter during my 20 days in Tajikistan and Afghanistan. (more)Genie Gabel-Dunk

Memorable parts? Learning about the impact of the Central Asia region - both for centuries past, and the possibilities for the future. Also seeing all the marvellous historical forts, mosques, madrassahs and other buildings remaining from the Silk Road era. Tips? Accommodation and food are definitely around 2-star ... and travelling long distances in a small mini-bus was uncomfortable. It is also quite difficult to change money - the best option is to take USD and change at a bank. Local... (more)Sarah Nicholson

The most memorable bit was the journey along the border of Tajikistan and Afghanistan where the river runs in a gorge, with the snow-capped peaks of Afghanistan across the river. And how fascinating to travel along a river like that with no bridges across it. (more)Peter Jackson
