Vstupní poplatky: ($ 1-3/osoba)
Pravděpodobně jediný čas, kdy budete platit vstupní poplatky, bude v národních parcích a některých muzeích v Dushanbe. Vstupní poplatky jsou velmi rozumné, dokonce i v hlavním městě.

Alkohol: (pivo $ 2, 4 $ koktejly)
Tádžikistán se říká, že má nejdostupnější pivo na světě. Pint Khujandu bude stát asi 40 centů, ale osobně jsme pokračovali v pití Baltiky (ruský ležák), když jsme batohovali Tádžikistán. V Dushanbe najdete spoustu různých koktejlů, ale mimo kapitál očekávejte, že se omezí na pivo a lihoviny.
Tipping:
Tipping
V Tádžikistánu není tipování obvyklé, ale služby, které pojmou turisty, budou očekávat odměnu. Pokud jste najali průvodce, vrátného nebo řidiče, očekávejte na konci návrh. Na výlet Pamir Highway bude váš šofér určitě očekávat návrh na jeho práci. Přibližně 10% všech služeb by bylo velkorysým návrhem, pokud by váš šofér hovořil anglicky a zdvojnásobil jako průvodce.
Some restaurants, particularly in larger hotels, will add a 10% service charge to the bill. If you stay with a local family in Tajikistan, it’s a good idea to leave a small gift. Stickers, pens and notepads from your home country are great to give to kids when you leave.

Peníze:
The currency in Tajikistan is called the Tajik Somoni or Som for short. The exchange rate at the time of writing was $1USD = 4.9 TJS. Denominations come in 1, 3, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 notes. There are no ATMs on the Pamir highway except in Khorog, but even the ATM there can be unreliable. You can take out USD and TJS from ATMs in Dushanbe and some other cities. In small towns, you can withdrawal TJS only and in some cases you won’t be able to find an ATM at all. ATMs accept Visa, Mastercard and Maestro, which implies that they typically also accept plus and Maestro debit cards.Click here For current exchange Rates
Must-See Places:
There are far too numerous “must-see places” to list here. We spent a lot of time in this country and we still have much to see. Tajikistan is many well-known for the Pamir highway trip, but the country has far much more to offer.

The Pamir Highway:
The Pamir highway (M41) is the second highest road on earth (next to the Karakorum in Pakistan) and it traverses the Pamir Mountains through Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan. The majority of the highway is in Tajikistan and it is one of the main traveler draw cards for the country. Most commonly, travellers drive the length of the Tajik highway between Osh (Kyrgyzstan) in the north and Khorog in the south (most travel South to North but trips can go both ways).
The trip can take anywhere from 1 week to 2 months depending on how much you stop and what you decide to see. You will pass through some of the most outstanding mountain ranges on earth including the Hindu Kush (Hindu Killers) and the Pamirs themselves. The scenery on this drive is spectacular and it is a road trip like no other. What makes the drive so memorable are the numerous turnoffs and side trips that lead away from the M41 itself. expect to trek to mountain lakes, spot endangered Marco Polo sheep and sleep in yurts along the way. It’s best to organize this trip from Dushanbe (heading north), Osh or Murghab (heading south).
There is a lot to know about a Pamir highway trip and for this, we have The supreme guide To The Pamir highway road Trip… coming soon!
The Fann Mountains:
Other than the Pamir highway trip, this is probably the most popular excursion to take in Tajikistan. located in the Sughd province in northern Tajikistan, these stunning, snow-capped peaks are the ideal place for hikes, treks and exploration. The area is also known as “The Land Of Lakes”, thirty of which can be seen rather easily and each displays its own color. The Fann Mountains offer a great alternative for those who don’t want to embark on the epic Pamir highway trip, but still want to see the beautiful scenery that Tajikistan is well-known for.
Dushanbe:
Tajikistan’s proud, modern capital, this is a great place to chill out and delight in some delicious food and drink. If you’re planning a trip into the rest of the country, or returning from one, Dushanbe makes for a great place to plan your adventure, or your next country on a central Asia trip. This is one of the best places in the region to pick up visas for Iran, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and other places you may visit.
The Fergana Valley:
Central Asia’s many politically divided, culturally diverse and notoriously unstable region, the Fergana Valley actually makes for a great travel destination. If you can make it up to Kujand, the second largest city in Tajikistan and home to the worlds most affordable beer, you can travel from there and delight in some very off-the-beaten-path places in the far north of the country.
Goat Note: The political situation is always changing in the Fergana Valley. Make sure to check that it is stable before planning a trip there.
Zeravshan Valley:
Another one of Tajikistan’s main touristic destinations, Zeravshan is nestled amongst the Western Pamir-Altai mountain ranges. The word Zeravshan implies “Golden River” and it refers to the main river which crosses the valley and offers precious water to the inhabitants of the area. well-known for outstanding landscapes, and beautiful lakes (including Alouddin, Kulikalon and Iskanderkul Lakes), the area is ideal for hiking and horseback riding.
If you’re not wanting to do any alpinism while you’re here, check out Penjikent, the old capital of the Sogdian empire and home to the best preserved remains of the pre-Islamic, Zoroastrian civilization.
Goat Note: once a major tourism draw during the Soviet Era, the Zeravshan Valley is now reserved for those “in the know”. A great off the beaten path place in Tajikistan.

Do It Up In Dushanbe:
If you’ve been travelling through central Asia for a long time, then Dushanbe will feel like heaven. good bars, outstanding cafes and stylish restaurants, the Tajik capital is like a breath of fresh air (except for the pollution). A trip to Tajikistan wouldn’t be complete without doin’ it up in Dushanbe!
A Helicopter ride Over The Pamirs:
Even if you don’t do the Pamir mountain trip, everyone ought to splurge the $90 (each way) to fly from Dushanbe to Khorog, over the Pamir Mountains! This is one of the most outstanding experiences you could ever have and the views are spectacular. The chopper flies through the mountains, not over them, so the windows are open and you can feel the crisp mountain air flood into the cabin at 5,000 meters! If the helicopter isn’t available, the small planes are still an exhilarating experience.
Goat Note: The ride takes 2 hours and costs about $90 US. In Canada (for example) you’d be lucky to get an 8 minute helicopter flight for this cost… and you wouldn’t be flying over the Pamirs!
Hike Over A mountain Pass:
With so numerous beautiful mountains, alpine lakes and forest trails, there’s no better place in the world to trek over a mountain pass. There are dozens of well-marked paths that can take you high up into the alpine regions of Tajikistan. hire a guide for lesser known trails and really find yourself in the middle of nowhere!
See Some Petroglyphs:
Petroglyphs are ancient rock carvings that often portray the hunting of ibex and other animals, as well as some musical instruments and cultural displays. found mostly in the Pamir region around the Ghunt Valley, petroglyphs are an interesting look into the early history of the region. numerous of them date back to the bronze age over 2100 years ago.
Bargain At The Cross-Border Market:
Right on the border between Afghanistan and Tajikistan, the Ishkashim cross-border market is a great way to peek into Afghanistan without actually entering the country. located on the afghan side of the Wakhan river (over a small bridge) the market is an outstanding place to see the sales and bartering, as well as the conventional clothing of the afghan people.
Goat Note: It is normal to hand your passport to border control at this market. They’ll hold it for you to make sure that you return to Tajikistan! (Are there really that numerous people fleeing to Afghanistan?)
Goat Note: due to recent instability in Ishkashim, make sure you check the current situation before planning a visit to the cross-border market.
Soak In hot Springs
The best hot springs in the country are Bibi Fatima near Yamchun in the Pamir Mountains. but if you’re not going to do the Pamir trip, there are other great springs around the country. For some, expect to enter fully naked with separate bathing times for men and women.
Must try Dishes:
Food is a huge part of travelling to any country and backpacking Tajikistan is no different. Although numerous dishes in the countryside lack flavour and seasoning, you can find some delicious local meals in Dushanbe.
