3.Tashkent city Night Tour with Dinner & Free Pro Photography

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 7 reviews · 6 hours · from $70Best value

Join Aziz on a six-hour private evening tour of Tashkent, with stops at Chorsu Bazaar, Minor Mosque, illuminated squares, and art-filled metro stations. You’ll travel by car and metro, eat traditional Uzbek food, and receive free professional photos taken during the experience. English, Russian, and Uzbek guiding are available.

“The guide’s name is Aziz. Frankly,he’s one of the best guide you can ever booked. The tour wasn’t done by any company but himself posting and doing,so it’s an original tour. This guide is a 20 years-old college student born in Tashkent, so he’s smart, energetic, technological sound and know the city by heart. Don’t think you can ask for a better guide.

He’s quite sad about that feedback and ask me constantly…”
