Joe made himself available through the planning process and was quick to answer my many questions. I was also provided detailed information about what to pack, and what to expect on arrival. The security paperwork was reassuringly thorough!

As a woman travelling alone, I felt totally comfortable. Safarāt made sure I understood any specific situations where I might be treated differently, and always checked in to ensure I was at ease. I never felt unsafe or a burden as a result.

“ the diversity of cultures, the unbelievable hospitality of its people, the complex history of the country, the natural rawness and beauty of the country - all added to an unforgettable experience.

Joe and Noori were outstanding guides and leaders - always looking to add different experiences to the program and with an ability to make changes on the fly as the situation demanded. They succeeded far begin my expectation in providing an intimate, honest and authentic view of the country and its people - a view that went beyond the often sensational headlines of the Western news channels.”

I could go on and on but just to say you will not regret joining Safarat on a tour of Afghanistan.”
