Shake off the sands of time to reveal colourful ancient civilisations during this breathtaking luxury voyage across Western and Central Asia. Experience the serenity of the Etchmiadzin – believed to be the oldest cathedral in the world – taste 8,000 years of Georgian tradition in the birthplace of wine-making, then board your private jet for two ultra-smooth internal flights. Weave a path through wondrous landscapes aboard the remarkable Golden Eagle, a lavish Old World luxury train offering once-in-a-lifetime elegance. Slumber sweetly in your elegant Silver Class cabin, freshen up in your private ensuite and indulge in all-inclusive dining with carefully paired wines throughout your journey. A fully serviced hotel-on-the-go, the Golden Eagle meets Central Asia’s sprawling beauty with supreme comfort and sophistication.

Discover the millennia-old ‘Ark’ fortress in Bukhara, stand on the precipice of the ‘Door to Hell’ at the perpetually burning Darvaza gas crater in Turkmenistan and witness the age-old walls of Samarkand’s Registan Square cast in colourful lights. Whether by plane, train or automobile, your adventures unfold in a seamless blend of vibrant culture and utmost luxury.

Itinerary & map
What you'll see
Yerevan

Barev, and welcome to astounding Armenia! Renowned for its historic churches and verdant mountain ranges, this Western Asian country is one of the oldest in the world.

Upon arrival at Zvartnots International Airport (EVN), you’ll meet your local representative and transfer to your centrally located luxury hotel for check-in.

Should you arrive early today, make the most of your open afternoon by joining a Freedom of Choice optional excursion. You’ll visit the Mother Cathedral of the Armenian Apostolic Church, the Etchmiadzin. Believed to be the oldest cathedral in the world, this pivotal place of worship now operates an adjacent museum showcasing religious relics. Continue to the ruins of UNESCO World Heritage-listed Zvarnots Cathedral, constructed in the 7th century with a unique circular design. Your itinerary concludes at the moving Tsitsernakaberd Memorial Complex, honouring the victims of the Armenian Genocide more than 100 years ago. Take the time reflect on this solemn chapter in human history as you stand atop the hill.

Tonight, return to your central hotel and prepare for a 7pm welcome dinner at a local restaurant, where you’ll meet your fellow travellers and toast to the journey ahead.
