Private and group tours led by local guides who love what they do.
It is the heart of the ancient Silk Road — and still one of the world's great undiscovered destinations. Here is why travelers who go can't stop talking about it.
Samarkand is roughly as old as Rome. For centuries, caravans carried silk, spices and ideas between China and Europe through these very cities.
Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva and Shakhrisabz are living cities you walk through — not ruins behind a rope.
No visa application for U.S. citizens on stays up to 30 days. Just book your flight and go.
Your dollar goes a long way here. Private guided days often cost less than a group bus tour in Western Europe.
This is what Italy felt like before mass tourism. Tiled courtyards and mountain viewpoints, almost to yourself.
Blue-domed Silk Road cities one day, snowy Tian Shan peaks, waterfalls and vineyards the next — all near Tashkent.
Born and raised here. We know every corner.
Small groups, real connections, no rushing.
Beyond the monuments. Into the culture.
A day in the mountains: a solar research complex, a sacred mosque at 1,500m, wine tasting, and a proper mountain lunch.

We are a small team of experienced local guides based in Tashkent. We speak English, Russian, and Spanish, and we care deeply about giving every visitor a genuine experience of Uzbekistan.
21 years guiding. Born and raised in Tashkent — food, culture and the Silk Road cities.
From Tashkent to Samarkand, Bukhara, Kokand and the Tian Shan.
Classic Silk Road routes — and the hidden corners off the beaten path.
Snowy passes, forested slopes and canyons of the Western Tian Shan.
In the heart of Central Asia, on the Silk Road between China and Europe — and easier to reach than you'd think.
Yes. Travelers are consistently surprised by how safe and relaxed it feels — street crime is low and hospitality is a point of national pride. As with any trip, check the current U.S. State Department travel advisory before you go, and your guide is with you throughout.
U.S. citizens can visit Uzbekistan visa-free for up to 30 days. You just need a passport valid for your stay. Rules can change, so confirm the current requirements before you fly — we are happy to help.
Uzbekistan is in Central Asia, on the ancient Silk Road between China and Europe, bordered by Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan and Turkmenistan. From the U.S. you typically fly with one stop — via Istanbul, Dubai or a European hub — into Tashkent. We pick you up at the airport.
Uzbekistan is Muslim-majority but secular and very open to visitors. Everyday casual clothing is fine. When visiting mosques and holy sites, cover shoulders and knees (women may want a light scarf). Your guide will tell you before each stop.
In hotels and main tourist areas, often yes — elsewhere, less so. That is exactly why a local guide makes such a difference. All of our guides speak English, and several also speak Russian and Spanish.
The local currency is the som. Cards work in most hotels and many restaurants in the big cities, and ATMs are easy to find, but bazaars and small villages are cash only. U.S. dollars are easy to exchange.
Spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) are ideal — warm days, cool evenings, and everything in bloom or harvest. Summer is hot in the cities but perfect in the mountains. Winter brings skiing in the Tian Shan.
