Alexandra and Shamil run trips on horseback to Central Asia and Russia. They take up to 12 people at a time and ride for roughly two weeks. This year they are taking clients to Lake Baikal in Siberia and Lake Song Kul in Kyrgyzstan.
Alexandra and Shamil's last adventure was riding horses through Mongolia and Siberia. Read all about the five month trip made in 2002 through Mongolia and Eastern Siberia: www.mongolia-siberia.com
In the Last Secrets of the Silk Road, Alexandra Tolstoy recounts the unique journey she made with three companions in 1999 through some of the least known and most beautiful regions of the world: Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, the Taklamakan Desert and finally China. Travelling only by horse and camel, they rode 5,000 miles through the desert, mountains and forests of the great trade route between East and West. In lands associated with Genghis Khan, Marco Polo, Alexander the Great and the Great Game, Alexandra and her companions encountered extremes of climate and landscape, braved dangers and found camaraderie and friendship.
'There are a number of deeply impressive features about this book ... the phenomenal courage,
stamina and powers of endurance of the girls ... the splendidly matter-of-fact narrative style'
