Top Samarkand Pack Animal Tours

The Kyzylkum Desert is home to ancient ruins dating back to Alexander the Great, shimmering Aydarkul (a massive lake), and yurt camps—but with little by way of infrastructure, navigating this remote part of Uzbekistan takes serious planning, and your own transportation. Leave the logistics to someone else on this private, overnight trip, which includes meals, a camel ride, traditional musical performances, and yurt accommodation.
