BASINGSTOKE, U.K. - Sept. 10, 2025 - PRLog -- Bamboo Travel has announced the launch of two brand new destinations as they expand along the Silk Road, with two exciting new tours each in both Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, ranging from 11 up to 20 days in duration, plus a 16-day trip combining the two countries.

Bamboo Travel has announced two new tours to Uzbekistan, and two itineraries to Kyrgyzstan, from 11 to 20 days in duration, plus a 16-day trip combining the two countries.

The main draw for travellers to Uzbekistan is the exceptionally well-preserved Silk Road architecture, particularly in the main highlights of Bukhara, Khiva, and Samarkand.  Uzbekistan is famous for the three Ms – Mosques, Minarets and Madrassahs – and you will see plenty of them all!  For a break from the history, you can also head away from the towns and cities to go hiking in the Chimgan Mountains, stay overnight in a yurt in the Kyzyl-Kum Desert, witness the fast-disappearing Aral Sea, or meet master craftspeople in the Fergana Valley.

Kyrgyzstan, or the Kyrgyz Republic as it is officially known, is blessed with extraordinary levels of unspoiled natural beauty.  This little landlocked jewel in Central Asia is a world of towering craggy mountains, wide-open grasslands, glittering turquoise alpine lakes, and lush primal forests.

Unforgettable experiences abound, such as horse riding along the shores of Lake Son-Kul, venturing out to the remote Tash Rabat Caravanserai, and witnessing the unique practice of golden-eagle hunting at Bokonbaev Village.

Although it feels like a wild destination, Kyrgyzstan is an easy entry point into Central Asia, with good flight connections between London and Bishkek, and visa-free travel for UK passport holders.

Highlights of Uzbekistan & Kyrgyzstan (https://bambootravel.co.uk/tours/highlights-of-uzbekistan...): 16 days from £3870

Although neighbours, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan could not be more different to each other.  Uzbekistan is famed for its incredible Silk Road cities and stunning Islamic architecture, whereas Kyrgyzstan is home to wide open spaces, spectacular mountainous scenery, and traditional nomadic culture.

This private tour – which is ideal for the first time visitor – begins in Uzbekistan, where you will explore the most important Silk Road cities of Samarkand, Bukhara, and Khiva, as well as the fascinating capital Tashkent.

You will then fly over to Bishkek and spend a week travelling overland around the beautiful Issyk-Kul Lake, staying in local guesthouses and small towns, and discovering Kyrgyzstan's epic natural beauty and fascinating nomadic culture.

The holiday costs from £3870 per person, based on two people sharing a room.  This includes international and domestic flights, all transportation on a private basis, 14 nights' B&B, high-speed train tickets, sightseeing/activities/entrance fees, and guides.
