The Great Silk Road Adventure
Given the rigours of the Silk Road, not to mention language and culture, plus I'm no spring chicken, for this trip i preferred to let somebody else do the organisation and i signed up with Jonny Bealby's team at Wild Frontiers.
So, how mysterious and exotic is the Silk Road??
Our journey was 7,500 miles across China, Krygystan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Iran and Turkey.
We travelled mainly by minibus, but the trip included a couple of sleeper train overnights and a bullet train dash from Dunhuang to Turpan in China. We also had a few internal flights! Full information on the tab The Route in Detail
