Amazing Samarkand trip - The walking tour with our guide, Bekhruz, was both informative and fun. It was originally supposed to be a 4-hour tour, but Bekhruz, generously extended it and it turned into a full-day experience. He was incredibly helpful, supportive, and very patient—even when we took time for photos. He also brought us to local bazaars and a local restaurant where we enjoyed a delicious lunch. Overall, I highly recommend this tour, especially with Bekhruz as the guide!

Good walking tour - Knowledgeable young guide who speaks good english. Long walk. Definitely better to take in the late afternoon as the heat of the sun is unbearable.

Knowledgeable guide, beautiful sights - Our guide, Sarvinoz, was very knowledgeable, and the sights were beautiful. We were glad to have done the tour. Note: bring about $25USD in Uzbekistan cash (about 300,000 som) for entrance fees. Although they all say they take cards, the card reader may not be working and you need cash.

Interesting Sites but Mediocre Guide - This tour was just ok. While we enjoyed the sites and the ability to see so many places on foot, we were left unimpressed by our guide and the pacing of the tour. While I commend anyone who takes on learning multiple languages, there's a mastery level needed to be able to give tours in other languages. Our guide could recite many facts & dates in English, but was not able to answer the questions we asked on the tour. Rather than admitting this, he would repeat a phrase about the site that had nothing to do with the question, which became quite frustrating. He was not able to connect with kids, which made it difficult for them to stay engaged. We were also supposed to end at 1PM, but we still had multiple sites left at 2PM when we finally decided we would cut out of the tour early as everyone was hungry and tired. This tour could be made a lot better by incorporating a stop for tea or lunch and keeping the group on schedule. My lesson for the future when booking through tour companies is to ask for the specific guides mentioned in 5-star reviews.
