- Trip code: 4M2X003
- Dauer: 14
- Stil: Classic
Verbringe zwei Wochen damit, einen Teil der Welt zu entdecken, der nicht gerade zu den typischen Touristenzielen gehört. Nur wenige Trips in Zentralasien bieten die kulturelle Vielfalt, wie es diese Reise durch Kirgisistan, Kasachstan und Tadschikistan tut. Wandere durch die herrliche Landschaft der Region Jeti-Oguz, unternimm einen Ausritt im atemberaubenden Tal des Flusses Tschong-Kemin, übernachte in einer traditionellen Jurte und erlebe die unvergessliche Herzlichkeit der Menschen in diesen Regionen.
