Connect with Afghanistan
We are on a mission to challenge perceptions and foster meaningful connections in Afghanistan through ethical and intentional travel.
Afghanistan offers more than its narrative of war and tragedy. It is a land of breathtaking landscapes, enduring civilizations, and rich traditions. Once a vibrant hub along the Silk Road and a cherished destination for adventurers on the Hippie Trail, Afghanistan and its people deserve to be appreciated and recognized for their rich legacy and vibrant culture in the modern age.
Take a leap into Afghanistan—a place of unbroken traditions, legendary hospitality, and awe inspiring landscapes.
OUR PURPOSE
To Foster Understanding and Connection
At Uncharted Afghanistan, we believe travel is more than visiting places—it’s about engaging with people, appreciating cultures, and creating lasting memories. Ethical travel has the power to break down stereotypes, challenge assumptions, and contribute to the local communities we are privileged to visit.
By crafting bespoke itineraries and working closely with local partners, we ensure that every journey has a positive impact—supporting businesses, preserving heritage, and offering travelers an immersive and transformative experience.
OUR STORY
Uncharted Afghanistan was founded by Khyber Khan, an award-winning filmmaker and storyteller. Born in Afghanistan and raised abroad, Khyber returned to his homeland after many years to rediscover its beauty and share it with the world. His work has taken him across the country, from remote mountain villages to historic cities, capturing the essence of Afghanistan’s landscapes and the resilience of its people.
Khyber’s vision for Uncharted Afghanistan is shaped by his love for storytelling and his belief in the transformative power of travel. Every tour is designed to not only showcase the country’s beauty but also to foster a deeper understanding of its people, their stories, and their challenges.
