One thing to remember about travel in Central Asia is that most areas, particularly the towns and cities have a much more laid-back approach to Islam than their neighbours to the south in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Central Asia is an Muslim region, so it’s crucial to be aware in certain zones. Although both women and men can wear T-shirts and shorts in the cities, they must not be wearing large sleeves or T-shirts. But, those who visit active mosques should wear pants that fall below the knees and tops which cover shoulders. A headscarf is also suggested for women. The tour takes us to remote places that are not usually frequented by tourists. The locals wear modest clothing, therefore it is probable that you’ll be more at ease in conservative attire.
Language and Religion
The official language of Tajikistan is Tajik. Russian is used to conduct business and for communication.
Most people follow Sunni Islam. A small portion of the population are followers of Russian Orthodox, Catholicism and Buddhism.
Drinks and food
The meals on this tour tends to be mostly on soups, meat and potatoes. In the more remote and higher altitude places vegetables are difficult to come by. However, there are plenty of dried fruits and nuts that you can taste.
For alcohol, the choice is typically limited to vodka or beer so anyone wanting something different – Scotch or Gin for instance – needs to purchase it duty free and bring it with them. Mixer drinks, such as tonic water, aren’t easy to come across, but.
