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!!

Recently visited Uzbekistan on a Solo photographic tour. The local guide Mr.Fayzullo was very very helpful into the entire trip right from the Welcome Smile at the airport to the departing hug. He has a keen knowledge and understanding of not just the Uzbek Silk-route History but also the other part of Silk route. He made sure to answer all my queries whenever needed. Spent almost 2 weeks and came back home with lots of memories and (3kg) of extra body weight after relishing some of the greatest meat dishes.

Made a last minute booking (during low season) and was promptly set up with an itinerary, including transfer to/from my accommodations in Tashkent as well as train tickets to/from Samarkand. I was initially hesitant about doing a guided tour as opposed to exploring on my own but I'm glad I did! Muftana provided so much information about the history of Uzbekistan and the sights we were seeing. I wouldn't have been able to know any of that if I toured by myself. We also stopped for a delicious lunch of samsas!
