Frequently asked questions

Tajikistan is generally considered a safe and very hospitable destination for travellers. The main risks are natural: mountain roads, altitude and weather. That is why we use experienced local drivers and plan routes around current road conditions. Always check your own government’s travel advice before booking.

In Dushanbe, Visa and Mastercard are accepted at larger hotels and some shops. Outside the capital — and especially in the Pamirs — cash is essential, so withdraw Tajik somoni (TJS) in Dushanbe before you leave.

Send us your dates, group size and interests via WhatsApp or the trip form. We reply with an itemised itinerary and price. There is no obligation and you pay nothing until you confirm.

Late June to mid-September is best for the mountains and the Pamir Highway, when passes are open. Spring (April–June) and autumn (September–October) are pleasant for Dushanbe and the Silk Road cities.

Yes. Our tours are private for your group, with your own driver and guide, so the pace and stops are flexible.
