I always keep Advantour in my list of travel bookmarks because this is still an area I would like to explore too. It has been recommended by others here, is local and much cheaper than MIR. Take a look at their website and see if you can do some more research on them and what they offer.
I took MIR's 5 Stans trip a couple of years ago. It was one of the best trips I've ever taken, with THE best trip leader I've ever had. No, it wasn't cheap, but imo you get what you pay for. If you have any specific questions about MIR's trip, please let me know and I'll be happy to try to answer them!
I took the 5 Stans tour with MIR and I couldn't been more satisfied. The tour guide was fantastic , the hotels, the food was great. They are not cheap but are worth every penny. Go and enjoy.
