Aral Tours from Khiva

A trip to the Aral Sea is a unique and unusual destination. For 50 years, the area of the huge lake has decreased by 90%, and the volume of water has decreased by 100 times! Today, the Aral Sea has turned into a new desert, former port cities have turned into ship cemeteries, and instead of algae, desert shrubs and grasses now grow on the former bottom. But a small part of the Aral Sea is still preserved.

Aral Tours from Khiva

The way from Khiva to Muynak (a former port on the Aral Sea) is 400 km. And to get to the current coast of the Aral Sea, you need to drive another 130 km along the former seabed and along the edge of the cliffs of the Ustyurt plateau. And if you can get to Muynak by an ordinary car, then to reach the modern shore of the Aral Sea, you will need a well-equipped SUV with a driver who knows these places.
