My name is Shokhrukh, but my friends simply call me Sha — yes, just like the “Shah of Persia.” I’ve been a tour guide for Italians in Uzbekistan since 2012, and believe me, it’s not just a job — it’s a true passion. Every group is a new journey, not only through my country, but also through the stories, emotions, and experiences of the people I accompany. I’m always learning something new, meeting extraordinary travelers, sharing unforgettable moments… and of course, we dive deep into the soul of Uzbekistan together!

Tour description

✨ Samarkand Tour – Between Legend and Reality ✨


Samarkand isn't just a city, it's a journey through time. Every place tells a story of empires, trade, and dreams that crossed the Silk Road. This tour is unique because it doesn't just show you the monuments, but also lets you relive emotions, curiosities, and secrets that only a local can reveal.


Our adventure begins with the majestic Gur-Emir Mausoleum, the resting place of the legendary Tamerlane. We'll continue to the splendid Registan Square, the architectural and spiritual heart of the city, before admiring the magnificent Bibi Khanym Mosque, built as an imperial gift of love. After so much history, we'll immerse ourselves in the scents and colors of the vibrant Siyob Bozor, the oriental market where the city's soul still beats today. Finally, we'll conclude the tour at the evocative Shah-i-Zinda necropolis, a veritable carpet of blue mosaics that seems suspended between earth and sky.


This isn't just a sightseeing tour, but an experience that will make you fall in love with the magic of Samarkand. Book now and let yourself be won over!
