Free walking tours in Samarkand

Shoruh ci ha fatto scoprire le meraviglie di Samarcanda attraverso una piacevolissima passeggiata. Grande competenza e professionalità! un tour che mescola con sapienza fatti storici, aneddoti, costumi e racconti del passato e del presente a volte tragici, a volte coraggiosi, a volte intriganti, altre divertenti! Una guida che si lascia anche guidare dalle curiosità di chi ascolta, rispondendo a tutte le domande che le abbiamo posto. Guardare Samarcanda attraverso le parole di Shohruh è stata una esperienza molto arricchente. Rahmat!

Sevinch es muy extrovertida y tiene mucho que contar, las 3h de tour pasaron rápido y nos dio informacion valiosa

Very interesting, he not only explained all the attractions, but also lots of context to understand better the culture and history

Maravilloso tour! Me encantó. Mucha información interesante, excelente variedad. Lo recomiendo para todos que pasen por Samarcanda

We are a family with baby, and we took the tour with Laziz in Russian. I was pleasantly surprised by knowledge, enthusiasm and attitude of our guide. The tour for us actually lasted 4 hours, we stayed at every location for as long as we wanted, took all the photos and tried the food on the way. Laziz was incredibly patient, answering to a hundreds of our questions about history, culture, traditions and everyday life. He also helped us carry our stroller which was very nice of him. Recommend to everyone!

Shokhida nos contó muchísimas cosas interesantes de samarkanda, además de darnos recomendaciones de dónde hacer compras y probar comida auténtica uzbeka. Siempre con una sonrisa y buena predisposición, nos dio tiempo para fotos y siempre estuvo dispuesta a responder nuestras dudas y preguntas. La recomiendo a cualquiera que venga a samarkanda!

This is a great tour with lots of information on culture, history and religion of this beautiful Samarkand city. Was quite impressed with the style and the way the guide interpreted with humor etc

Excelente. Muy profesional y con mucho conocimiento. Realmente nos ayudó a comprender la historia del lugar. Muy agradable y especial. Y habla español. Que es tan difícil conseguir y tan indispensable para poder entender los lugares y la cultura de la ciudad. Estamos muy agradecidos y recomiendo 💯

Nuestra experiencia con Sevinch fue muy agradable. Nos ayudo a entender un poco más la cultura y la historia detrás de cada lugar visitado. Ahora conocemos mucho mejor Samarkanda.

Our tour started at 2pm and ended at 5.30pm - our 3.5 hours was 3.5 hours well spent with a great introduction to the ancient and historic part of Samarkand. It was very informative with new information that blew our minds away. It was a well prepared tour with laughter and historical insights. Culture and history was the theme of the tour and we highly recommend this tour. The end of the tour was met with a great authentic bakery and we recommend the pumpkin Samsa!

Great tour. It gave us the lay of the land and covered the critical points. It helped us to plan the rest of our time in terms of prioritising places to visit. Guide showed good knowledge and great willingness to answer questions about the city...

Very informative tour, he told a lot of historical stories and facts and knew the answers to all our questions. As well gave insights in the cultural history of the city. We enjoyed the walk.

Fayzoddin’s tour was very informative and enjoyable. His historical insights were helpful to us as first-time visitors in Samarkand. The tour is a lot of walking by but certainly worth it to see all the major sites!

Thank you for the tour Laziz! Plenty of information, we managed to see major historical places of Samarkand, he also helped us taking pictures. Highly reccommended

Fayoziddin brought his enthusiasm and knowledge to an in-depth and spunky tour. I can't imagine all the information that needs to be studied and programmed for each group. While I have a minimal knowledge of Samarkand, I enjoyed Fayoziddin's perspective as a local professional. He was joyful in his comments and shared his opinions with thoughtfulness. There is so much history from Uzbekistan, and this was just the tip of the iceberg. Imagine spending the whole day with him! Priceless.

We had a really great time during this tour. Fayoziddin was really knowledgeable and very patiently explained to us the historical and cultural aspects of Samarkand. We really liked the way he told us the stories and the various historical versions of the events that have happened in the past. He very patiently answered all our questions about the sites - ranging from architecture, history, culture and geography. We would highly recommend a tour with him in case you are looking for a cultural immersion in Samarkand

Yusef had a good route and is very knowledgeable about Samarkand. His English is very good. We were his only clients this January day (as we have been everywhere in UZB), and the only turn-off was that he contacted us the night before with a set price instead of a tip. Ultimately, we did the tour as a tip tour - and we left him a very nice tip.

Shokhida habla perfectamente español. Hace el tour ameno y agradable, explicando la historia de su ciudad y respondiendo a todas las dudas.

Shokhida fue muy amena y amable, muchas gracias!

Fayoz did an amazing job and gave us very useful information! We truly appreciated and enjoyed his tour.

Una experiencia que nos acordaremos! Un tour con muchas informaciones y sugerencias tambien para visitas autónomas. Se ve que pone pasión en su trabajo y eso hace que el tour sea muy entretenido! Gracias!!

We enjoyed the walk while learning about the culture and history to Samarkhand.

Very beautiful tour!

Ozodbek was an excellent guide. He went out of his way to do a tour just for me and was very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful walking tour in Samarkand with Fayoziddin. He is extremely knowledgeable, thoroughly well-read, and explained the history and significance of each of the five sites we visited in great detail. He is also very friendly and funny, which made the tour relaxed and enjoyable. The walk was well paced, he gave us plenty of time at every stop to ask questions and click photos without feeling rushed. His storytelling and explanations truly brought Samarkand’s rich past to life. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an insightful, engaging, and enjoyable walking tour of Samarkand.
