Hello!
I’m a local guide from Khiva, one of the most beautiful cities on the Silk Road and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. I offer tours in Ichan Qal’a, sharing the rich history, culture, and stories of our ancient city. With experience and passion, I aim to make every visit interesting and unforgettable.
I’m not here to recite facts from a textbook. My tours are personal, immersive, and full of heart a way to truly feel the spirit of this extraordinary city. As someone who was born and raised here, Khiva is not just my home it’s my passion. I know its streets not just by name, but by the stories that echo from their stones. And I can’t wait to share them with you.
Whether it’s your first time in Uzbekistan or one stop on a bigger journey, you’ll leave with a piece of Khiva in your heart — and perhaps even a few secrets in your pocket.
Book now and let’s explore Khiva together with curiosity, wonder, and a little bit of magic.
I speak English and I’m always happy to welcome new guests to Khiva!
Overall I enjoyed the tour. But we do quite a few tours and compared to my usual ability to concentrate for 3 hours, by halfway through I was wandering. There was too much info presented too fast without interaction and my brain started to switch off. Charos is very nice, very knowledgeable and we really did see a lot of places and receive a lot of information. But I don't remember much of it. Also, I do not remember reading in advance anywhere that we needed to purchase the 250,000 som entry ticket. That was a bit of a surprise as we were staying in the Old Town and did not realise we needed to purchase a ticket. Not devastating but this needs to be mentioned up front. One of our group backed out immediately and I was grumbling ... 500k outlay for a free tour before we even started. OK, a necessity ... but would be nice to know..
Very informative tour. Charos knows everything about Khiva and she always gave us enough free time to take pictures and explore.
Excellent tour, Charos set the tour at a comfortable pace for everyone, she was very informative & made the tour very interesting. She was very professional & friendly. My husband & I both enjoyed the tour very much.
