Educational and entertaining tour with Aziza. - Of course you have come to Uzbekistan to admire the treasures of the ancient Silk Road, and rightfully so. However, if you let this charming lady take you on a walking tour, you will see another side, at least in Tashkent. Aziza knows all about Russian Modernism, where to find it, and much more. I found her knowledge and presentation both educational and entertaining. She doesn’t get tired because she knows and loves her subject, so when your feet need a rest, just tell her. Highly recommended!

Flexible personalised walking tour - This walking tour is private and flexible. The guide conveniently picked our group of 6 up from our hotel. We requested Soviet architecture as the focus of our tour, and she was able to adjust this for us. We learned a lot about the recent history and local culture. We saw many Soviet sites during the late afternoon and evening, in a personal relaxed way. Would definitely not have covered this much by ourselves.

A very interesting tour... - A very interesting tour of an unexpected architecture. Our guide Azizeh showed us not only the wonderful mixture of Soviet and Uzbek buildings and subways but also tailored in sights along the way when she realized that it was our first evening in the city so that we could better appreciate Tashkent. She was full of knowledge and made our evening fun and had the best Plov recommendation!

An excellent, enjoyable, interesting and informative tour. Well worth attending! - Unfortunately, there was some confusion over meeting up and the tour ended up starting late. It did, however, take place and very worthwhile it was. A couple of suggestions to avoid what happened to us. Firstly, make sure you advise the tour guide if you are going to be unable to obtain WiFi prior to the tour. Secondly, make sure you exchange mobile numbers with the tour guide in case you need to contact each other by SMS text or voice before the start of the tour. Ok, let’s get on with the tour itself! This was an excellent tour that was enjoyable, interesting and informative. The tour guide, Aziza was great. She was obviously experienced and very knowledgeable. She provided a historical and cultural insight into Tashkent and Uzbekistan in general, with interesting information about the sites, buildings and streets that we saw. I would certainly recommend this tour. It is really worth attending.

Subway and architecture tour - Mirwaheed was a great guide! He knew a lot of history. My favorite part was the subway and then seeing the architecture throughout the city. I think it is lovely to see the buildings and architecture, but it was great to have a guide to explain the history.

Subway and soviet architecture delight - Really excellent tour with Waheed our tour guide. Great trip on the metro got to see five/six stations including the cosmonaut station which was on my bucket list. Enjoyed the soviet architecture (modernism) and all the information Waheed shared. Really straightforward booking and meet up process would thoroughly recommend
