About us
…..it all began on a sunny afternoon in Oskemen, nestled beneath the breathtaking Kazakh
Altai Mountains. A husband, wife, and brother, all passionate travellers with a shared
thirst for adventure, decided to create something extraordinary. With over sixty countries
explored together, they envisioned a company that would bring their love for travel, culture,
and unforgettable experiences to life.
Thus, Infinite Horizons Luxury Silk Road Expeditions
was born—an exclusive offering that allows fellow explorers to journey through the
captivating heart of Central Asia, where history, culture, and luxury intertwine to create the
ultimate travel experience!
