The Five "Stans"
I assume for all the tours below that you would need to get visas for entry to each country ahead of time.
G Adventures have a 26 day tour of the five "stans": Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan for $7,199. Tour begins in Bishkek and ends in Ashgabat. The latest tour date is from August 19 to September 13. Tour code AYBA.
Wheel & Anchor is a Canadian tour company that have a 20 day tour of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan from October 13 to November 1, 2026. Begins in Almaty, Kazakhstan and ends in Khiva, Uzbekistan.
Adventures Abroad have a 21 day five "stans" tour for $8,160 and the solo premium is $1,520.
India
G Adventures have a 20 day tour: Himalayan Adventure: India, Nepal & Bhutan. The tour begins in Delhi and ends in Paro, Bhutan. Cost is $5,100 to $6,000 depending on the season and the solo premium is $1,130. Judging by the temperatures especially in Delhi and Agra it is best to travel from November to March. Tour code AHDB.
Various dates available:
The November 3 to 22 is the closest tour that could follow the Wheel & Anchor "stans" tour in 2026. Or possibly take a break from the organized tours with a few days in Oman, then fly to Delhi.
Tour start date that could follow the G Adventures tour is from September 19 to October 8. Could take a break from the organized tours with a few days in Oman, then fly to Delhi for tour start.

Tourhub have a 21 day and a 23 day tour of the 5 "stans" (not sure what the difference is). (I think Tourhub is a booking agent and not a tour operator directly.)
