Did a fun walking tour with Ardasher. He made a special effort to fit us in which we really appreciated. Lots of local information and Ardasher was happy to answer all our questions

Know so little about Tajikistan and was duly educated by our fantastic guide Ardasher. Excellent English, super informative and took us to a local market restaurant for delicious Tajik cuisine. Can’t recommend this more highly

Valuable tour. I wish the library part was shorter—every floor looked the same. He covered a lot. More stories. Loved it when we connected with strangers and the kids in the library.

My guide, Makhmad, was a very pleasant young man and a true professional. He provided me with a lot of useful information for the rest of my stay in Dushanbe. I highly recommend his tours to all visitors!

I guess Dushanbe really don’t get a lot things to see and share, he has tried. It’s a pity the city is avoiding soivet stories and buildings but before that they don’t get much to talk about..

Mahmad was an excellent guide!! We visited the Hisor Fortress and the surrounding museum. The tour was a great experience, his English is excellent, and he has an impressive depth of historical knowledge that made every stop interesting and engaging. His car was also very comfortable, making the trip even more enjoyable. I would absolutely recommend taking a tour with him!

Mahmad was an excellent communicator from the start and when I learned I was the only one on the tour, he was clear about my financial expectation the day prior. It gave me a chance to accept or decline and also let me know how much to pay that was satisfactory. He arrived on time and was immediately easy to engage with. His English is excellent and it made the tour very enjoyable. As we proceeded with the tour he took note of my particular interests and made a suggestion of what to add. I learned a lot and with his openness, I felt comfortable to ask any question. I highly recommend Mahmad as a guide.

Mahmadjon is an excellent tour guide! First off, his English is fantastic and he keeps up to date on current events so our conversations aren't just limited to the tour's subject material. Second, he is an excellent driver and his vehicles are very clean. Lastly, please also inquire with him about his other tours to Iskanderkul and Romit Valley! They are not all listed on Guruwalk and we went to Romit Valley. It's a day trip into a river valley known for it's delicious trout. We did some light hiking and then had a late lunch of grilled trout. I strongly recommend this tour if you don't have the time to go to into the Pamirs.

Dedicated, informative, and diligent, he was also an extremely safe driver who went above and beyond—even going out of his way to say hello when we were on another tour. He books up quickly, so be prepared to reserve in advance. The tour was amazing and not to be missed.

Ardasher recitation of poetry and knowledge of 4 languages was a treat. What brilliant knowledge he has of his homeland. The tout he tailored hit all the main attraction. The wall was beautiful, beautiful gardens, fountains, cafes, main squares and historical sights. I had a great time and I also learned a lot. Tajikistan is truly a beautiful people with vast education in an ancient part of the world where civilization started. I learned a lot from my guide.

Highly recommend. I so enjoyed my tour with Mahmadjon. He is genuine, friendly, and accommodating. I also went on a second full-day tour to Iskanderkul with him. He went out of his way to ensure we had a memorable experience, making extra stops along the way and encouraging us to eat local food and meet the villagers.

Ardasher is a very good guide. The route is interesting and it includes a lot of beutiful buildings and places. You can take the route even in a hot day, because most of it is under the shadow of trees.

Die Tour mit Mahmadjon war ein voller Erfolg. Alles war bestens organisiert, da wir nu zwei Gäste waren, hat er uns sogar am Hotel abgeholt. Schon die Kommunikation im Vorfeld war sehr angenehm und dieser Eindruck blieb auch so auf der ganzen Tour. Wir haben viel gesehen, auch viele Informationen über Land und Leute bekommen und uns dann sofort entschlossen, weitere Touren, z.B. zum iskanderkul mit Mahmadjon zu unternehmen. Er hat unseren Aufenthalt in Tadschikistan zu einem besonderen Erlebnis gemacht. Danke für Alles!

Mahmadjon is an awesome guide + driver. He is fluent in English hence, easy to communicate with for non-local travellers and/or tourists. He has a profound knowledge about the history of Tajikistan, and able to provide information and details a traveller need to know about the points of interests. I would definitely recommend him to someone who plans to visit this Central Asian country.
