NOVRUZ BAYRAM: THE BEST OF TURKMENISTAN
Cultural immersion
Edged by the Silk Road and with a rich history stretching back millennia, Turkmenistan is a little-explored region where tribal desert lands contrast with grand futuristic cities. And this pioneering 13-day trip provides a comprehensive experience of this secret Asian jewel. Just considering towns alone, range from the grandiose capital Ashgabat to the remote village of Nohur, whose inhabitants believe they descend from the armies of Alexander the Great. Your visit is also timed to experience the region’s celebrated Navrus Bayram Festival, bringing together different clans from around the region – with feasting to match the entertainments.
