Multi-country visa to tourists to travel along the Great Silk Road
Tour operators of a number of countries suggest giving a multi-country visa to tourists, who want to travel along the Great Silk Road. The motive is that it is convenient for tourists, reduces the cost of travel, and most importantly - contributes to the growth of tourist flows, and hence the income of host countries.
The idea of using a common visa on tourist routes along the Great Silk Road is supported by more and more countries. According to some sources, there are already thirty of them. Therefore, during the tourist forum in Astana, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan came to an agreement on introduction of tourist multiple entry visas that would allow travelers to visit both countries.
According to experts, the introduction of a common visa will make tours in Central Asia more accessible. It is estimated, a route Almaty – Tashkent – Bukhara –Samarkand, that such popular among tourists, will cost a traveler not more than $ 500. However, it is an economy class.
Tour operators even created a psychological portrait of the average modern tourist. He is very mobile, curious, wants to get as much experience as possible, and see as many cities and countries as possible. In addition, all these requests are best suited to cross-border tours.
As scientists say, the theory must be confirmed by practice. Tour operators expect to check the effectiveness of multiple visas entry by results of this year.
Turkmenistan is one of the key links of the Great Silk Road. There are a number of amazing and unique architectural, archaeological historical places in the country along this ancient route. The exotic part of the journeys is the Karakum Desert itself, along which the most difficult part of caravan routes once ran. Today you can race through the sands on trains and off-road cars, but even just looking over the Karakum spaces, you can imagine what a powerful force moved people in those far-off days, who were paving the way for new discoveries and interaction via endless sand dunes in harsh conditions.
