Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan (non biking)

Post by fatbikerbill »

Hi all,

NB: this is for a non biking trip!
But any experience from the wise, & not so wise but experienced gratefully appreciated.

We (Mrs C & me) are hoping to go Uzbekistan & the general area in October. We have 2-3 weeks & want some culture, trekking & chilling. The latter may come for free. We have trekked in Sri Lanka a few times & Thailand so are not total novices but rusty.

Our current plan is ... Plan so far is: Tashkent, (3N), Khiva (2N), Bukhara (2N), Samarkand (3N), Tashkent (1N).

N = nights, Uzbekistan travel by train.

Then either/both trek in Chimgan area of Uzbekistan, or fly to Bishkek & go to Issyk Kul lake for a weeks chill & trekking. How does that sound ? Tash Rabat would be amazing but suspect that is 3 days in itself, although the whole journey from Bishkek would be bound to be vaguely exciting.
