Tour description

Tour by metro 
Today Tashkent is the modern capital of Uzbekistan, which practically has not preserved ancient landmarks as opposed to Samarkand, Khiva and Bukhara. But it has its own sights. One of them is the Tashkent Metro, the first underground transport in Central Asia.

Construction of the Tashkent metro began two years later after the destructive earthquake in 1966. Also the increase of population in the capital caused to the construction of rapid and comfortable public transport system. First line of metro opened in 1977 in honor of 60th anniversary of the USSR and connected the most populous district Chilanzar with the center of the city

Mirvohid is an excellent tour guide and a Tashkent local. I learnt so much from him as he explained the ancient history of Uzbekistan, the USSR period and now. I found out he was a teacher, this explains his precision with many interesting facts. I wholeheartedly recommend his tours, he is friendly, professional. I also found him to be kind and humble as a fellow human being. 10 out of 10 stars. 🤩

My husband and I took the Metro tour in Tashkent with Mirvohid as a guide. We explored parks and buildings in the New Town and spent time marveling at several underground metro stations. Mirvohid was fun to listen to and very informative. We listened to old and new history of the city, the country, and the people who made it what it is today. His English was excellent. We enjoyed every minute of it and highly recommend this tour to any travelers
