Amazing day with Malika in Bukhara! - Great 2/3 day tour of Bukhara. Such truly amazing sights and old madrasahs, mosque and markets. Malika really knew the sights and could answer any questions we had. Truly appreciate this tour and all her hard work helping us learn as much as we could about this beautiful old city and helping us find what we wanted at the market! Great day! Thank you!

Wonderful unhurried tour. - Nargiz the tour guide was knowledgeable and a friendly personality. She understood that I know a great deal about Islam, and we could have interesting exchanges about Sufism and the Naqshbandi. The Summer Palace was fascinating in its combined Uzbek and Russian architectural and visual aesthetics. Lunch at The Plov restaurant was superb with the added decor designs of the place using ikat and silk embroidery Suzani.

Beautiful spots and picturesque views ✨ - The trip was amazing, I enjoyed my staying there😍😍😍 The most memorable part of my trip was getting to know the warm and hospitable people of Uzbekistan. From the friendly locals who welcomed me into their homes for tea and conversation, to the skilled artisans who shared their craft with me, I was touched by the kindness and generosity of the Uzbek people.

Best tour to discover Bukhara 👍 - What a great intro to Bukhara. As I hadn’t visited Uzbekistan before i had booked this walking tour to give me a good insight into the city. My guide Lola was very organised and helpful for which I really appreciated her( special thanks to Lola). The meeting point was in Labi Hovuz with an amazing view moreover lots to buy at fairly reasonable prices. All in all great city with lots of things to see. Highly recommend to all

Mr. Sheki, our guide, understands that those of us who don't speak English well... - Our guide, Sheki, spoke slowly in English that was easy for us to understand, as we were not good at English. It was a laid-back car and the driver was kind. I was an English speaking guide, so if I had been told in advance where I was going, I would have done some research beforehand to gain a better understanding.
