  • RUN DUSHANBE TOUR OVERVIEW April 15 – April 22, 2021
    RUN DUSHANBE Dushanbe International Half Marathon Tour TOUR OVERVIEW April 15 – April 22, 2021 SUMMARY Incredible, yet relatively unknown, Tajikistan is one of the most unique countries in the world. Sitting in Central Asia, it not only has fascinating history as a former Soviet bloc country, but the friendliest people you will ever meet and the most incredible breathtaking scenery. This tour will not only get you there to experience all of this, but to also join in the local Tajik celebrations for their 'Day of the City' running in the 2021 Dushanbe International Half Marathon - an AIMS certified race. This tour will be led by our one of our most experienced tour leaders, Rich Beal. Rich has led tours all over the world since 2004, and has personally designed and researched all our Tajikistan tours. Because of his close connection to the country, his fellow Tajik guides and friends like to joke the country is basically his third home (China and Mongolia being first and second)! Please note that the itinerary may differ slightly to what is below, but your tour leader will do their best to ensure that as much is covered as possible, and add in extra activities when there is time. We visit Tajikistan regularly and know the best places to go to make your trip even more unique. We will make the most of your time in Tajikistan to guarantee the experience of a lifetime. HIGHLIGHTS • Participate in the little known Dushanbe half marathon, as the streets are lined with locals cheering you on • Explore the UNESCO-listed ruins of ancient Panjikent • Journey across the beautiful snow-capped Fan mountains • Camp on the shores of stunning glacial Lake Alexander • Get a massage at the surreal Soviet health spa of Khoja Obi Garm, which looks like something straight from a movie The Experts in Travel to Rather Unusual Destinations.
