Loved the evening walk with history explained along the walk. If anyone wants to enter & explore the attractions e.g. Ark of Bukhara, it is recommended to take earlier tour. My group only had the evening off hence we chose it. Guide spoke very well & had no problem answering our questions.

It is an excellent tour with an experienced guide. I learned a lot during the tour. It’s enjoyable when you visit a place, and you know its history. Shahrouh is very knowledgeable about all the sites. It’s good that the tour also included a pick-up and drop-off at my hotel.

Had a great introduction to Bukhara by the wonderful guide Madina. She was very knowledgeable, able to answer my many questions and was the loveliest person as a solo traveller to spend the time with. Provided important context to not just the history, but also the culture of this magical city. Highly recommended.

Our tour guide, Saodq was very knowledgeable. He can speak five languages fluently. We travelled during the Ramadan month and he must have been hungry and tired, yet he was enthusiastic and cheerful. He brought us to a fantastic restaurant in the countryside, Kafe Chorbakr Temur OTA. We tried the chicken was so tender and flavourful. Thank you for showing us a great time

Our guide Madina made this tour amazing! We saw all of the old city, with Madina’s knowledge of history, culture, and discussion of past and current Uzbekistan. It was so informative and interesting. The puppet shop made us laugh tremendously Medina also gave us recommendations to visit the Jewish area and local restaurants which added to the experience

An amazing experience in this very historic city, made even more enjoyable by a wonderful and knowledgable city guide Shokhrukh who was simple the best. I can’t express how much gratitude I have for Shokhrukh for this amazing experience. If you are visiting this ancient historical city, this is a must, ask for Shokhrukh and you will remember this amazing experience for a very long time

Shourah, the guide picked us up from the train station exactly on time and took us around the city and dropped us at the hotel after the tour. He was very courteous and accommodating and had good grasp of history. We very much enjoyed the tour and strongly recommend it to anyone who is visiting bukhara with a guide who provides a wonderful tour at a reasonable price.

Knowledgeable, professional guide who tailored our time according to my specific requests and considerations. He also answered various questions I had regarding current trends in Uzbekistan's cultural, political, and economic development... so it was much more than just a history lesson or landmark tour.

Generally I prefer to visit monuments and towns by myself reading book guides in order to dedicate more or less time to each single thing to see according to my interest... but the decision to hire a professional guide in Bukhara was really the best decision of my trip in Uzbekistan! Shokhrukh (but "Sho" is easier to remember) was very well prepared and with a huge knowledge of the heritage and history of his amazing country. The level of English was very professional like his preparation on Bukhara and beyond. I appreciated a lot the flexibility of Sho that picked me up in Bukhara Airport in the morning and dropped me off in Bukhara Train Station in the afternoon after the interested tour. Sho was able to target the tour according to my timing and preference. The price is absolutely worth Sho's amazing experience, knowledge and kindness.
