This was a fascinating tour, and Ayimtour were very well organized, making everything run smoothly. The vehicle was well-maintained and the driver and guide were very good. The food at the yurt camp was surprisingly abundant and good. A couple of things to be aware of (not Ayimtour's fault, just inherent in the activity itself) - some of the roads are very rough and there are long drives through some pretty boring scenery (all part of the adventure, but can be rough on the back). Also, it was pretty cold at the yurt camp overnight, but cosy inside the yurt itself thanks to a wood stove.

2. Along The Caravansaray Trail

My tour of Bukhara was the highlight of my trip to Uzbekistan. My guide, Lola, was arguably the best tour guide I’ve had the pleasure to sightsee with. She had an exceptional knowledge of the history and landmarks and her enthusiasm of the subject matter was infectious. She tailored the tour to my interest and was extremely patient as I nerded out taking photographs. I so enjoyed my day with her and hope to get her as a guide again on my next trip to Uzbekistan. The tour was effortless with hotel pick up and drop off. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough! Well worth it!!

3. Аncient Fortresses of Khorezm

Khiva, Uzbekistan DOCA TOURS

The territory of ancient Khorezm is literally scattered with the ancient qalas ("Qala" means fortress) that remained of the border towns of the state of Khorezm, which were built to protect against nomadic raids. Most of them served their purpose successfully until the XIII century, before the capture of the country by hordes of Genghis Khan. The population of the country was mostly killed or enslaved, towns destroyed, economy ruined and the fortresses were abandoned. During the Soviet times, archeologists took the interest in fortresses, partially excavated and cleared them, the most valuable finds were taken to museums and the ruins were left alone again.

Inclusions: All Fees and Taxes, Private transportation

Exclusions: Guide service, Lunch

4. Adventure Trip To The Aral Sea

Tashkent, Uzbekistan DOCA TOURS

The trip to the Aral Lake allows tourists to experience human madness, to feel the wonders of nature. The adventurous and active tour to the Aral Lake which is on the border of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan illustrates the extent of the tragedy surrounding the disappearance of the Aral Lake. The tour to the Aral Lake leaves one with mixed feelings of admiration and sadness. Admiration for the unbelievable beauty of the barren landscape and the Ustjurt Plateaus. And sadness because of the bare wounds of this area which are so evident. In the unusual landscape of deserts and oases, we meet hospitable people – open to the West and yet still bound up in their centuries-old culture.
