Afghanistan is a rising star among travellers seeking the wonders of mother nature. With some of the most impressive geographies in the world, from the leafy river valleys of Nuristan National Park in the far East, to the roaring peaks of the mighty Hindu Kush and its surrounding mountains.

Explore breathtaking landscapes, following the historic trails of such notable figures as King Darius I of Persian fame and Alexander the Great on his multi-continent-spanning conquest. Afghanistan has a wide range of cultures scattered across the nation, just waiting to be explored.

Understandably you might have some concerns about travelling to the region after its modern history. The security of the area remains volatile following the coup in 2021 and the subsequent restructuring of the Afghani Government has made the area dangerous. If you still intend to travel, it is advised that you research the proper safety and modesty practices before you visit, to ensure your ease of travel.

The jewel of the Registan Desert, Kabul is the destination which scratches the itch of those seeking to retrace the steps of legends old on a historical adventure that few have travelled before. Find Kabul between golden dunes and breathtaking rocky valleys, explore its street markets and take in the architectural wonders of the many palaces and temples that define Kabul as a cultural magnate.

There are multiple Middle Eastern Airlines, such as Turkish Airlines and Emirates, which offer passage into Afghanistan from all around the globe. It should be noted though that most flights will have a layover in a nearby Middle Eastern country such as in Dubai or Istanbul. From there, you can reach Kabul International Airport, the country's primary international gateway, and start your adventure in Afghanistan.

Alternative Airlines can help you find flights into Kabul for competitive rates, meaning you can spend all of the money you saved on your flight to book more excursions and make your trip go further.

Before heading to Afghanistan, we recommend following these tips to make your journey as smooth and unproblematic as possible:

• Research the latest security situation, travel advisories and entry requirements for Afghanistan.
• Hire a local guide or a security consultant who is familiar with the region and who can provide advice on safe travel routes and practices during your stay in Afghanistan.
• Avoid isolated areas and aim to stay in major cities. Isolated areas like smaller towns and villages tend to have higher security threats.
• Respect the local customs and traditions. You should dress modestly (especially if you're female) and avoid public displays of affection.
• Keep up to date with the latest security developments and be prepared to make changes to your trip if necessary. Also keep your passport, visas and emergency contact details readily available.
