TOUR OVERVIEW


The height of summer transforms Afghanistan into an adventurer's paradise. From Kabul's dynamic energy to Mazar-i-Sharif's spiritual grandeur, August offers long days to soak in every experience.

Trace the footsteps of ancient traders in Balkh and Samangan, then marvel at Bamiyan's dramatic cliffs where the giant Buddhas once stood. Band-e-Amir's waters are particularly inviting during summer's warmth.

Your journey culminates with the inspiring Parwana Childrens' Circus, a celebration of hope and talent.

August in Afghanistan means:

  • Extended daylight for exploration
  • Comfortable highland temperatures
  • Unique seasonal activities and festivals

Return home with stories from a land that defies expectations.
