You too can visit some of the spectacular locations seen in our film Jirga. While some parts of the country are out of bounds, the central provinces and some northern areas are fine and make for an unforgettable travel experience. I have collaborated with the local Afghan producers and guides I worked with on Jirga to start AFGHAN ADVENTURES travel company. Get a group together now!
