The Silk Road Tour Selection Trips

  • Travel the Silk Road with a spirit of adventure and flexibility; remember that you’ve come halfway around the world for a new and unique experience – and you will have one!
  • It’s advisable to take a well-organized tour while traveling the Silk Road, since guides can prove invaluable in smoothing out travel difficulties (transport, bureaucracies, language, lodging, etc.) along the way.
  • Because of the varied terrain, there can be dramatic shifts in the weather along the route, so take layers of clothing that will provide comfort during extreme temperature changes.   
  • Pack any medicines you take in their original containers, and keep them in your carry-on luggage because they may be hard or impossible to replace.
  • Bring a generous supply of your favorite snacks, which may be difficult to find along the way.
  • Some areas of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, through which a section of the Silk Road passes, are situated at altitudes over 10,000 feet; check with your doctor if you’re prone to altitude sickness.
  • Occasional windstorms kick up desert dust that can clog the nose and throat and sting the eyes, so bring a kerchief and perhaps nose and eye drops for relief.
