Overview
Long divided by wars and rivalries, the countries that surround the inland Caspian Sea are united by a shared backdrop of medieval cities, archaeological remains of early human settlements and remnants of the storied Silk Road.
This 16-day itinerary is a cultural crash course in some of this continent’s most curious corners. You’ll sleep on board the Golden Eagle Caspian Odyssey as it winds its way through Armenia, Georgia, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan. Disembark for extra-special nights in hand-picked hotels in the most diverse and dazzling cities and return to the rails to watch the world go by from your ultra-comfortable, fully serviced cabin.
