Very professional tour operator - Highly recommended!! - We had a truly spectacular time on our 9 days tour over the Pamir. The booking process was incredibly efficient and clear. We got detailed information on what is included and what isn’t. Our driver NURBEK picked us up in Dushanbe and treated us with the most incredible hospitality that you can imagine. We realized on the way when we met other tour groups that he went over and beyond to offer us an outstanding service. He was prepared with table and chairs for lunch breaks, hot water for tea, wonderful watermelons,…. He suggested us the best places to stay, was very patient with us stopping for fotos. I can’t imagine a better and smoother driver on these difficult roads with a comfortable Land Cruiser in best condition. We would have loved being able to communicate a bit more with him to learn about people and their life’s out here. But basic English for the essentials is perfecty fine! THANKS NURBEK FOR THIS AMAZING TIME TOGETHER!! Margit & Victor , Maria & Jordi

Pamir Highway Road-trip - Our trip from Dushanbe to Osh on the Pamir Highway with VisitAlay was fantastic. Sali, our guide, is a very skilled 4x4 driver. He organised lovely home-stays, delicious lunches and beautiful stops. It was a special trip with lovely people.

Fantastic 9 days. - We had a fantastic time on this 9’day trip and just finished today! The scenery is spectacular and on top of that we had the best driver/guide in Tajikistan! Kanybek was fantastic. His English is excellent, he’s very knowledgeable of the sites and he’s an excellent driver too! We would highly recommend the tour AND Kanybek!

joomart 他让险峻的帕米尔,化作了我们心中最温暖的风景。 - Our 14-day journey across the Pamirs has come to an end. Looking back, it’s hard to imagine how this trip would have gone without our guide Joomart.
The Pamirs offer breathtaking beauty alongside rugged challenges. We navigated gravel roads, muddy paths, and winding mountain trails—every kind of tough terrain you could think of. Thanks to our guide’s fearless yet careful driving, we felt completely safe and secure throughout.
His expertise was truly impressive. At every village and rest stop along the way, he shared rich insights into the local culture and customs. The warm greetings he received from friends along the route spoke volumes about his genuine kindness—a quality that also brought us real practical benefits.
Beyond expertly planning each day’s route, handling our luggage with care, and driving with skill and confidence, what touched us most was his thoughtful attention to detail. When I suffered from altitude sickness, he immediately found medicine, checked on me regularly, and thoughtfully adjusted our pace.
This journey gave us far more than an exceptional guide—it gave us a true friend and brother. (You are a reliable brother!)
We are deeply grateful for his professionalism, kindness, and patience—for safeguarding us every step of the way. Without his wholehearted dedication, this journey wouldn’t have been the profound and perfect experience it was. He transformed the harshness of the Pamirs into the warmest memory of our hearts. 14天的帕米尔之旅结束了,现在回想起来,真不敢想象如果没有我们的向导,joomart, 这一路会怎样。
帕米尔的魅力与险峻并存,砂石泥泞的盘山路、崎岖复杂的路段我们都一一经历。多亏了向导沉稳又果敢的车技,让我们一路都感到无比安心和信赖。
他的经验更是令人叹服。每到一个村庄驿站,他都能为我们详细介绍当地风物人情。沿途遇到的众多朋友向他热情招呼,足见他的真诚友善,这份好人缘也为我们带来了实实在在的便利。
除了安排好每天的行程、细心搬运我们的行李、驾驶时胆大心细,更打动我们的是那些无微不至的关怀:在我高原反应时,他立刻帮我找药,时刻关注我的状态,并主动灵活地调整行程节奏。
这一路,我们收获的远不止是一位优秀的向导,更是一位真诚可靠的好兄弟! (You are a reliable brother!)
衷心感谢他的专业、友善与耐心,全程为我们保驾护航。没有他的倾心付出,就没有这次如此圆满的旅程。 他让险峻的帕米尔,化作了我们心中最温暖的风景。

Pamir - our driver, sali, ensured that our journey is smooth including all the permit checkpoints and the border crossing. his cars are in great conditions and the windows are not tinted so we had superb views throughout. the guesthouse and homestay are better and more comfortable than envisioned.

Excellent trip! - We had an amazing trip! Our driver, Kokon, was a great driver, was very knowledgeable, spoke good English and went out of his way to make sure we were happy and comfortable. He even prepared tea, coffee and snacks after hot springs and on our hike! Kokon also went out of his way to make sure we saw the wildlife! He got us very close to a large herd of Ibex and got us as close as he could many times to Marco Polo sheep. Kokon was also very patient stopping as often as we wanted for photos and took photos of us for us! Kokon is from Pamir and knows everything about the area and everyone!
