The Old Silk Road is a term used to describe an ancient network of trading routes between east and west established as early as 130BC. The merchant caravans traveled these old roads to bring silk and tea, dyes and precious stones, perfume and spices, medicine and ivory, rice and paper to the west. They returned home bringing horses and saddles, skins and furs, honey and fruit, weapons and precious metals.
Central Asia, or the so-called 5-stans region, consisting of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tadzhikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, is the exotic heart of the Old Silk Road. As you travel by train, you will have the opportunity to explore this ancient kingdom of stunning architecture, breathtaking landscapes, exciting history, art and religious ideas.

testimonials
I wish to thank you for all your help in planning our trip from St. Petersburg to Moscow. All went very well. The train ride was uneventful. We did need some assistance from the concierge at our hotel in St. Petersburg in deciphering the signs in the railroad station. We had her write our the words "departure" and "arrival" in Russian, so we would know what track our train would be leaving.
