Great tour with pictures to prove - Our guide Umid gave us a wonderful tour of the main sites of Samarkand and took some amazing shots. We are traveling as a couple so very hard to get pictures together. This way we have photos of a memorable trip together taken very patiently by Umid. He was very knowledgeable of the sites and their historical significance. The tour lasted 4-4.5 hours and was well worth it.

A Magical Journey Through Time in Samarkand - Samarkand is an absolute gem! From the breathtaking Registan Square to the intricate details of Shah-i-Zinda, every corner of the city tells a story of ancient grandeur. The local guide Umid was incredibly knowledgeable, adding depth to the experience. Don't miss the bustling Siab Bazaar for a taste of local life and delicacies. The mix of history, culture, and hospitality makes this city tour unforgettable. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Uzbekistan!
