Free walking tours in Taschkent

Honestly, this tour surprised us in the best way. We expected a simple city walk, but Bahtiyor made it feel like a real exploration of Tashkent. He pointed out things we would never notice ourselves — small design details, hidden corners, and interesting facts about how the city has changed over time. He’s also very easy to talk to, so the whole walk felt relaxed and fun. For travelers who value a meaningful introduction to the city, this tour offers an excellent overview combined with engaging storytelling.

Great guide, great energy, and a fantastic introduction to Tashkent. Bahtiyor clearly knows the city very well and enjoys sharing it with visitors. The tour was interesting from start to finish, and he made sure everyone in the group felt comfortable asking questions. If you’re looking for a guide who makes the city feel alive and easy to understand, Bahtiyor is a great choice.

Our experience with Bahtiyor exceeded our expectations. From the beginning he was professional, well-organized, and very attentive to our group. What we liked most was how balanced the tour was — a mix of history, culture, and local recommendations for places to eat and explore after the tour. He also shared many small stories about Tashkent that you won’t find in guidebooks. If you want a guide who is informative, friendly, and truly cares about giving visitors a great experience, Bahtiyor is the perfect choice.

Bakhtiyor is very knowledgeable, polite, and kind. One of the best tour guide I have ever had. Highly recommend!

Amazing tour. You will really enjoy this tour. Everything perfectly said!!!

We had a fantastic walk with Bakhtiyor. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and gave equal attention to everyone in the group. It was a great induction to Tashkent and I highly recommend it.

Bakhtiyor is an extremely kind and knowledgeable guide. He showed us around the city on a 4 hour tour, allowing us to discover all the highlights of Tashkent. We also had amazing plov. Highly recommended!

Отличная экскурсия по центру Ташкента с гидом Донатом! Мы начали у станции метро Космонавтлар, затем посмотрели красивую станцию Алишер Навои, после чего отправились на легендарный рынок Чорсу и закончили прогулку у медресе Кукелдаш. Экскурсия получилась почти персональной — в группе был только я, поэтому можно было спокойно задавать вопросы и идти в удобном темпе. Донат отлично знает историю города, рассказывает легко и живо, без перегрузки датами, но при этом очень содержательно. Отдельный бонус — на Чорсу мне удалось даже постоять у тандыра и самому испечь лепешку. Это был неожиданный и очень атмосферный момент, который точно запомнится. Маршрут получился идеально сбалансированным: и красивые станции метро, и старый город, и настоящий живой рынок. Если хотите познакомиться с Ташкентом и его атмосферой — очень рекомендую экскурсию с Донатом.

Donat made our Tashkent walk truly memorable. What impressed me most was how prepared and knowledgeable he was. No matter what question I threw at him, he always had a fascinating answer, often with an unexpected twist or little-known fact. He was respectful, polite, and completely focused on making the experience great for us. You can feel his genuine passion for Tashkent and its history. If you're in the city, don't miss the chance to walk with Donat. You won't regret it.

Excellent. Interesting. Funny. Great vibe. 10/10

Great tour, great guide!

Great tour with Donat! He has been an excelennt guide, showing us the real local life from Tashkent people and interesting cultural & historical spots of the city.

It was a great introduction tour of the city of Tashkent. Donat was informative and fun guide with all his knowledge of the history of not only Tashkent but the country as well. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to know more of the Uzbek history and culture.

This was one of the best tours I've taken. The tour guide was very informative and kind. He answered all of my questions and even helped me plan my day trip to Amirsoy and Chimgan mountains. I highly recommend it.

Il tour con Bakhtiyor è stato semplicemente eccellente! Lui parla benissimo l'inglese, ci ha portato a scoprire Tashkent raccontandocene la storia e gli aneddoti, insegnato tanto sulla città e sul popolo uzbeko, oltre che dato tanto consigli su cosa fare nei giorni successivi, e non dimentichiamo che il tour finisce in un posto dove si mangia il vero plov dopo essere stati preparato davanti ai nostri occhi! Consigliatissimo

The tour was great. So informative and the guide is knowledgeable.

Bahtiyor really made our Tashkent tour something special! He showed us everything – the history, the cool buildings, the delicious food, and the awesome culture – and he made it all fun and interesting. My favorite part was definitely exploring the Chorsu bazaar, trying all the yummy local food, and even learning how to make bread! Book it and enjoy it.

Our guide, Bakhtiyor was incredibly kind, informative, and engaging throughout the entire tour. He explained everything clearly, answered all questions with patience, and added interesting details that you wouldn’t easily find on your own. One of the absolute highlights for me was visiting the metro stations. Memorable experience I would recommend to everyone taking this tour.

Donat nos ha acompañado en un viaje en el tiempo en el que hemos podido descubrir la historia de Taskhent, no sólo através de las palabras sino también a través y sobretodo de los sentidos!!! Hemos encontrado astronautas, mercantes, nómadas, panaderos, vendedores de especies, .... Su carpeta azul está llena de "puertas" che invitan a entrar con espíritu aventurero y curioso en un tour absolutamente recomendado. (en español o en inglés) Rahmat Donat!!!

Creo que ha sido el mejor guía de freetour que he tenido. Soy muy preguntón y, sin quererlo, alguna vez he puesto en apuros a algún guía al no saber responder alguna pregunta un poco más concreta. Este guía sabe una barbaridad de historia y política, y habla tan bien español y transmite tan bien el conocimiento que resulta muy fácil entenderle. Por otra parte, no tiene ninguna prisa en acabar. Está con nosotros hasta estar seguro de que no se deja nada por contarnos. En fin, Ali Jhon, un 10.

The tour was excellent. Despite being the only participant, Bahtiyor proceeded with the tour and provided me with the best GuruWalk experience I've ever had. He is a knowledgeable and personable guide who answered all my questions. I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with him. I highly recommend booking this Tashkent city tour, as it offers a more comprehensive experience than typical walking tours.

I really enjoyed my tour with Bakhtiyor. As it was off season, it was just me and him but this made none the difference and I received a top class tour! We completed the full itinerary and at no point did it feel rushed. All my questions and queries were answered with superb knowledge!

The guide was very well educated, keen to share knowledge and answer to all the questions we had. He never rushed with observing the sites or taking photos. Having some soft drinks and of course the great plov was very nice touch, it felt as if we were visiting a friend. We took a tour with a baby in a stroller. Even though there were many stairs on the way, it wasn’t a problem thanks to our guide, who helped carrying the stroller everywhere. Many thanks! Recommend to everyone!

Donat is a wonderful knowledgeable guide. The Soviet by the night was so very well curated. We enjoyed the conversations, trivia and the humour he brought into the walk. We took more than 4 walks on our trip and all of them were very good But Donat was the best guide, most knowledgeable of them all. Highly recommend his walks. The guy knows his stuff and some more. He entertained all our questions and curated the route accordingly. This walk is a #mustdo in Tashkent.

Muy profesional y nos ayudo muchidimo para poder comprender la cultura y la historia de Uzbekistan. Muy agradecidos y contentos con Ruslan.
