Free walking tours in Samarkand

Thank you very much, Bobur. That was really interesting experience for us. Hope we will come back.

I really enjoyed this walking tour. The tour lasted around 3 hours, and the group was very small (only 4 people) which made the experience much more comfortable and personal. The tour was interesting, well-paced, and enjoyable even despite the heat. Laziz, the guide, was very thoughtful and always made sure we could stop in the shade or in comfortable places, which was really important and made a big difference. I also really appreciated the extra local recommendations - places to visit after the tour, where to buy stuff, and where to eat. It’s always great to get advice from a local, and it made my stay in Samarkand even better. Thank you for such a pleasant and informative experience!

Excelente guìa

The tour was very interesting and the guide was very funny. He was very funny and making a lot of stops according to the group needs. One small thing is that the tour could have been shorter if the guide was more concise in his explanation. But that’s a personal feeling.

The tour was perfect! Fayoziddin led us through five different locations, providing historical and cultural context for each one to help us understand the complex and layered history of Samarkand. As we had no prior knowledge of Central Asian history, Fayoziddin helped us to understand what we were seeing; without this tour, we would have been completely lost. Fayoziddin was an excellent guide. The tour was about four hours long, and he was very respectful of our needs, such as WC breaks, food and time to take pictures. It really felt like an hour!

Tour was good, we covered main sites with a lot of information (mostly history) for guests who don't have previous knowledge about central asian history/leaders etc it is more difficult to understand and connect the facts during the tour. But sites and guide were good.

Excepcional encontrar una guía como Moji, en español, toda una sorpresa. Mi hija de 11 años ha estado encantada con ella. Muy recomendable. Gracias Moji!!

Very knowledgeable on both local history and culture, very enjoyable

Amazing tour! Sitora was fantastic ! We had a four-hours tour and it felt like an hour... She provided lots of information about the history of the city as well as about the modern life of Samarcanda. She is literally a STAR!

Una genia total. Gran tour, muy buena guía. Recomiendo 100%

Fue una forma espectacular de comenzar a conocer la ciudad. Shokhida habla un español impecable y contestó con conocimiento todas nuestras preguntas, además es muy divertida. El recorrido que pensó es perfecto porque te da un pantallazo inicial y luego puedes ahondar en lo que más te gustó. La recomendamos mucho.

Great Tour! Interesting information and perfect balance between walking and sightseeing! Definitely recommend!

Muy top! Fue súper buena guía y nos ofreció todo lo que pudo y la pedimos. Nos gustó mucho el tour

Great visit Thanks a lot

Fantastic tour! We saw all the main landmarks and our guide Yusuf was wonderful. He has a very outgoing and funny personality that kept us engaged the whole time. He was very attentive, always checking in to make sure we could hear and follow along. His explanations were clear and his energy was great. Highly recommended!

Great tour guide, we enjoyed every part of Samarcanda with him and the group. Highly recommend

Yusuf was exceptionally informative, fun, and responsive to our questions.

I had a great afternoon walking around Samarkand with Sitora as my guide. She was very knowledgeable on all the places and had great insight into where we visited. She kept very professional despite the heavy rain. Overall it was a great way to see lots of places in Samarkand. Would highly recommend!!

Yusuf was incredible, quite funny and provided some very interesting facts about Samarkand and all the spots we visited. Would recommend, thank you again Yusuf!

Great guide! ⭐️ But I didn't attend the russian tour but the English speaking one. So it is possible this review is left for another guide...

guia muy profesional y servicial

Fantastic tour to orientate and show you the sights. You can then go back and visit in your own time knowledgeable about all the places.

The tour went through all the main sights, but since they’re most paid entrance, we only visited one inside (you can go back to the ones you want on your own time). Our guide Sitora was very passionate and take care of everyone very well.

We had a guided tour today with Ozodbek, and he was excellent. We met at the agreed meeting point, and even before the tour started, he sent us a message to make sure everything was clear. This made it very easy to find each other without any issues, which I really appreciated. The tour was extremely detailed and well organized. We visited the main attractions of Samarkand, including the Mausoleum of Tamerlane, the Registan, and the mosque. His explanations were clear, engaging, and informative throughout. Ozodbek speaks very good English and was flexible during the entire tour. He also asked if we wanted to buy entrance tickets, and explained that in that case he could guide us inside the attractions as well—something we really appreciated. At the end of the tour, he also recommended other places to visit, as well as restaurants and activities, which was very helpful. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and reliable guide.

Pleasant tour, with balance between the types of information regarding history, religion and overall Samarkand knowledge
