Traveling along the Silk Road today may still not be for everyone, although the tourist infrastructure has gradually become better and the Central Asian republics have become more accessible. 

But the open-minded tourist will find an incredible reward of incomparable sights and hospitable people.

The excitement, in our opinion, far outweighs any tribulation.
