F.A.Q.
Luckily, travelers from most Western countries no longer need a tourist visa to visit Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan. If you need a visa, you can easily get an electronic visa online for Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan. For Turkmenistan, you do need a real visa and we will provide a letter of invitation. With this letter, you can collect the visa itself directly at the border.
Overall Central Asia can be regarded as a safe destination for travelers. That said, you are advised to wear a money belt, watch your belongings, avoid dark streets at night and take only official taxis.
The economies of Tajikistan and Turkmenistan are still largely cash-based. In Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan paying by credit card has become easier recently, and there are ATMs as well. In Turkmenistan and Tajikistan you better not rely on ATMs at all and bring all the money in cash in nice USD or EUR notes of different denominations (wrinkled and small notes are harder to exchange, but small notes can be used sometimes to pay for souvenirs). Since our tour price includes all major costs you likely do not need to spend much money during your trip. An emergency fund of around 500 USD in cash is always good to have during guided trips to Central Asia.
